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.

booked a 3 hour walking tour of the Temple Bar District in Dublin, Ireland. The company sent me an email survey which asked detailed questions about my goals for the tour. Several days prior to the tour, my assigned guide, Nishtha, contacted me to confirm my goals. She outlined an agenda for which I agreed met my goals. The actual tour was amazing and the best 3 hours. Nishtha realized at our walking pace that we could expand outside of the Temple Bar District. We walked throughout the City including many other amazing sights such as Trinity College, St. Stephen's Green Park, The Harp Bridge etc. Nishtha was very knowledgeable and prepared the best tour for me.
