Hi, I’m Maria, your literary-loving, theatre-obsessed, and humor-driven host in Dublin! What I love most about this city? Well, where do I start? From the raucous comedy nights at Vicar Street to the intimate improv sessions hidden away in quirky backrooms, Dublin’s got a scene for every laugh you’re after. And don’t get me started on the theatre—whether it’s the grandeur of the Abbey or a hidden gem like the Glass Mask Theatre, you’ll find me front row, soaking it all in. I’m also a bookworm to the core, and I’m here to help you trawl through its best bookstores. When I’m not lost in a book or a play, you’ll find me exploring Dublin’s historic parks, seaside escapes, and wild swimming spots—Forty Foot, anyone? I’ve also got a soft spot for Dublin’s quirky history and a keen eye for the city’s evolving art and comedy scenes. So, whether you’re here for the literature, the laughs, or just a good old wander, I’m your go-to gal. Let’s dive into Dublin together!
If you're thinking about this tour, just do it! I often taking walking tours when I first arrive to a new city, to get my bearings and learn a bit about the area. This has to be the best such experience I've had. Maria was a fantastic guide! She is so knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and just an excellent guide all around. She is able to customize the tour to your interests & adapt along the way! It was also an excellent value.10/10
