    It was special because, our guide showed a special interest in us. He was very knowledgeable and interesting. Our guide was wonderful. I highly recommend him.

    It’s an all walking tour about 6 miles total. Not worth the 700 plus dollars they charged. Patrick the guide was outstanding. We thought lunch would be included for that price but want.

    This tour is a 6 mile walking tour. For 700$ this tour cost it wasn’t worth it. Not even lunch was included. But, Patrick is amazing. He knows Dublin and is passionate about his city. Def recommend him as your guide.
