Experience Dublin
Beyond the Guidebooks

Our guide (Josè Luis) was very personable and truly seemed to enjoy sharing information with us. We were not particularly familiar with Dublin’s literary history, so this tour was a great way to learn.

Jose was a wonderful tour guide. He was very easy to contact and provided excellent directions. He tailored the tour to our likes and needs and provided a wealth of information. We had a very pleasant afternoon and would highly recommend this tour!!!

Very interesting and informative your tailored to our interest. José was so easy to work with and had great communication! One of our favorite activities in Ireland!!

Great Tour and Great Tour Guide! Was the best way to get a wonderful introduction in to the city of Dublin. Highly recommended.

The tour gave me an extensive overview and history of all the main sights in Dublin. The guide was knowledgeable and enjoyable to walk around with. He took many photos so I wouldn't have to and they came out great.

My guide was personable and offered a wonderful view and history of Dublin

Owen (not the Irish spelling!) was amazing. Local unbiased knowledge with a great explanation of the culture. We enjoyed his tour, his company, and highly recommended this tour!

Ohhh Dom...there are no words to describe our tour..perfect, surprising, laughing...if you can schedule with Dom do it! Our tour was on Halloween and we got to see some amazing places we would not have known. And Dom's laugh is infectious! We met some locals and even had a serenade at one place. If you take this tour ask about the nicknames for the statues..we learned some interesting ones. Dom knows everyone and everyone knows Dom, so plan on meeting people..maybe including his sister! This was amazing and totally worth every penny!

It’s a fun and rich history/ culture related city walk tour. Within less than 4 hours private tour, Dominick has so much enthusiasm about showing me the city of Dublin, and we were able to meet local artists as well. He is very friendly with his passion and experience. Highly recommended.

The walking tour was a wonderful experience. Our guide, Dom, was knowledgeable, helpful and funny. He was very understanding of our limitations. Standing ovation for Dom Pio

Our private tour was great! Dom was fantastic! He was lively, energetic, and it was clear he genuinely enjoys the subject matter. He was very responsive to any questions we had ahead of time as well as flexible with any requests we had. The information he shared was pertinent, interesting, and immersive. I highly recommend booking a private tour!

Our tour guide, Dave, was so friendly, knowledgeable, nice and energetic that it made for an absolutely terrific day ! Make sure you ask for him when you book a tour.

Dave was great! So personable and yet so informed about his native city. It made the tour a joy. He’s able to customize the tour to your needs and to the things you want to see. It really felt like you were being led around Dublin by a good friend. Highly recommend.

Dave’s walking tour of the center of Dublin was great. He’s so knowledgeable about the history of his hometown and he can tailor the tour to your personal needs and wants. It felt like you were learning all about Dublin from an old friend. Highly recommend.

Our tour guide, Dave, is excellent. He has unending knowledge and stories galore. We learned a lot about Dublin and Irish history. We highly recommend him!!!

Aurora is an excellent guide and tailored the tour for me personally. It was great to see the sights and know the history behind it all. Aurora was warm, personable, and made me feel completely welcome, answering all my questions with genuine enthusiasm. By the end of the tour, I felt like I’d seen the real Dublin, not just the tourist highlights. I’d highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the city—it’s the perfect way to get to know Dublin’s heart and soul!

Aurora was perfect for our group of 5 seniors - patient, appropriate pace, entirely helpful, knowledgeable, enthusiastic. She greatly facilitated our time in Dublin.

We had a wonderful time with our guide Aurora! She is very knowledgeable of the city and fun to talk to during the tour. She was very understanding and accommodating of us have a bit of jet lag since we landed the day before the tour. There were spots already picked out although she is very receptive of feedback if we wanted to stay at a stop of a moment to take pictures or take in the scenery. 10/10 would love to have as a guide again!

Had a great half day Private Walking Tour of Dublin today with Patrick. Very knowledgeable and accommodating to all we wanted to see. Would highly recommend him.

Patrick was our tour guide in Dublin. He was knowledgeable, personable and gave us great suggestions for other things to see. We enjoyed our time with him.

Patrick was a very good guide. Knowledgable of Dublin history and restaurants in the area. Very personable. Enjoyed our tour immensely.

Enjoyed our tour of Dublin with Patrick. He was very knowledgeable of the area. Very personable. Offered restaurant recommendations.

Our guide made the entire experience special.

Jason was the perfect guide. He was a combination history teacher and street performer. It was the right mix of off the beaten path and hitting the “must sees”. We feel like we got a great insight to the city in just 3 hours.

Jason was very knowledgeable and engaging. He knows Dublin, it’s hidden gems and historical facts.

Customizable, helpful tour that gave us a very good sense of Irish history and Dublin‘s role in it. The guide was very friendly and great.

Helpful, friendly guide, and all the information he had to share about Dublin.

Ian was a fantastic tour guide for the city of Dublin. Born and raised in Dublin, he had great knowledge of the history, the city, local customs, and all the interesting places we wanted to see. He was warm and friendly and helpful, even with the shopping, showing us the best tea to buy and more. We felt lucky to get him as our guide because he took us places we would not have been able to discover ourselves.

We took a 4 hour walking tour in Dublin with your tour guide Ian. We just wanted to let you know what wonderful job he did and how satisfied we are. Ian was very knowledgeable, interesting, and fun to walk with. He showed us parts of the city and gave us information that we never would have been able to get on our own. He personalized the tour to us. We would definitely book another tour from your company.

Paddy is an excellent guide: deeply knowledgable, a great storyteller, and completely familiar with the streets and secret places of Dublin.

Paddy did a great job for our walking tour. Family of five including three kids 9-15. He took the time to personalize in advance and was great with the kids.

Guide Cillian was great — friendly, very knowledgeable, accommodating, and, not least, frank. My wife and I never lost interest over three hours. Especially appreciated the follow-up text with pub and further sights recommendations! Very satisfied!

Very well thought out your with interesting information about Dublin. Cillian also gave us some good recommendations for the rest of our trip.

Cillian was very knowledgeable

We were on a Viking cruise to the British Island's, so happy Dublin was a port of call. I always book with T by L vs the Ships tours, more $$ but well worth it. My first time in IRE so wanted to get real feel of the countryside and culture. We had no interest the City of Dublin, which I am sure is great but wanted something different. We met Diana at a cafe near the port to discuss our day. We hit it off as she totally understood our ideas on itin. Based on our thoughts she planned the perfect day .. I got my taste of beautiful countryside, Guinness Lake (which is off the beaten path), unreal waterfalls, and plenty of roaming sheep. Dianna knows her stuff, history and has great pride in her profession. We stopped for lunch at her delightful local pub. Would definitely recommend Diana. We had a great day with a great person. Thanks again D

Wilbur was awesome and so informative. Showed us a great variety of things!

Our guide, Wilbur, was great. A student at Trinity College Dublin, knowledge and tailored our walk-about to things we wanted to see. He also made excellent suggestions regarding stops not on our radar.

The tour fitted what we wanted to see

Wilbur was an outstanding tour guide. He started our day with a traditional Irish Breakfast. He was friendly and conversational as we explored St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin Castle, Temple Bar and Trinity College. He is a current student at Trinity so we were able to get unique insights and better understand this treasure in Ireland. He recommended the LEAP transit pass in his pre-tour communication. That suggestion allowed us to take a side trip to Bray following the tour! Highly Recommended.

Derrick was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions! He took us places we wanted to go and sat with us to enjoy a Guinness.

We recently took a Historic City Walking Tour in Dublin with our guide Derek Walsh, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Derek was knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the city’s history. He brought every stop to life with interesting stories and facts. The route was well-paced, covering key landmarks like Trinity College and government buildings, and some hidden gems we’d never have found on our own. Derek also made the effort to engage us and was happy to answer our questions. He also connected the city’s past to current events—it gave real depth to the tour. I’d highly recommend this walking tour to anyone visiting Dublin, especially first-timers or history buffs.

Derek was amazing! Low key. We just talked and walked! Saw the archaeological, Molly Malone, the crafton street, St Patrick’s Cathedral, and much more!

Great!

One thing to consider-we asked to start at 9am but wasn’t much to do 9-10 since nothing was open. Maybe next time recommend starting later when sites open up.

The tour person asked me what was important for me to see on our 4 hour tour. He read what I wanted to see, and that is what we saw. It was very interesting.

My primary goal was to see the Book of Kells and that is what we saw at Trinity College. A great experience!

We appreciated Adrien’s perspective and insight regarding historical events and t do heir immediate and long term impacts.

We had an amazing day walking around Dublin with our awesome guide, Tony. He planned a lot of great places for us to visit, but was also very open to our suggestions. It was a wonderful way to learn about the city, and gave us ideas for where to revisit on our own, when we had more time. Highly recommended!

Tony did a great job of taking us on walking tour around Dublin in September. We were particularly interested in Trinity College ( wish we had known ahead of time that we needed a timed pass to get into Long Library). The highlighting of Oscar Wilde ( statue and home) was good. Tony answered many questions we had and was a pleasant, informed guide.

Tony’s tour was great! He touched on everything important, was very knowledgeable and made the tour interesting for both adults and kids!

The tour was amazing! The guide was very knowledgeable about the city and I took wonderful pictures! Learning about Ireland in this tour was wonderful.

Had a fantastic early morning tour of Dublin with Sionainn. She's incredibly knowledgeable and made the city's history come alive. I really enjoyed our conversation and learned a lot about Ireland in general. Highly recommend!

That sums it up. 5 stars.

We really enjoyed hearing about Dublin from Sionainn's perspective. She gave real life to the way young Dubliners see the country and its history. She was flexible prior to our arrival, tweaking the tour to fit our needs, and she was easy to communicate with.

Sionainn was a first rate tour guide. Knowledgeable, articulate and very approachable. We shared many stories about our backgrounds and cultures. She was marvelous and as a recent Trinity grad, she was well versed in Irish history. Highly recommended.
