Hi there, I'm Patrick, your go-to Dublin host with a knack for humor and a heart full of warmth. What do I love about Dublin? The "Craic"! There's nothing like the Irish sense of humor and our zest for life, finding laughter in every corner. I'm fascinated by Dublin's rich blend of history, from its Celtic roots to its modern, multicultural vibrancy, offering flavors and faces from around the globe. My passion? Diving into Dublin's ever-evolving food scene and sharing my finds, from hidden gems to the finest dining spots, regardless of your budget. And let's talk about Georgian Dublin – its elegance and history captivate me. I know the ins and outs of Dublin's neighborhoods like the back of my hand, especially Dublin 1,2,3,4,7,8, Malahide, and Howth. Join me for a walk, a laugh, and maybe a pint or two as we explore the heart and soul of this beautiful city together.

Patrick Johnston took us through all of Dublin City and he was absolutely fantastic. He was charming, humorous and incredibly knowledgeable. His knowledge of the history of Ireland was beyond compare. He took us to lunch for a very traditional Irish meal at Boxtys. It was completely fantastic, including the beer flights. A wonderful day. Highly recommended!

Patrick came all the way to our cruise ship to meet us and brought us in to Dublin by train. He was incredibly knowledgeable and we learned so much from him! As true foodies we requested amazing food for lunch and he certainly delivered! We saw many sights, tasted great food, attended a whiskey tasting, and learned so much! Patrick escorted us back to our ship to make sure we didn’t get lost. A wonderful day enjoying Dublin City
