Best Guinness / Jameson Tour….A Must Do!
Our guide was well versed on the Guinness Brewery. She walked us to Guinness while informing us about the history. She was very pleasant and had answers to all our questions. After Guinness, she walked us to Jameson Distillery and handed us off to their representatives. Very enjoyable tour. Would go again. A must to do in Dublin.

Dublin Historical Centre Food Tour with 7 Food Tastings & Drinks

Major Highlight of Our Trip - DO THIS TOUR!
This food tour was truly one of the major highlights of our trip! Cairin was entertaining, vivacious, incredibly informative, and just lovely. He made the entire experience feel fun, relaxed, and personal.The local stops were fantastic and offered such a great variety of food and drinks. One of our favorite parts was that each stop included a personal presentation of what we were tasting, along with the opportunity to chat with the local owners and learn more about their businesses. It made the experience feel much more authentic than a typical food tour.The group size was also perfect — only about 6–7 couples — which made it easy to interact with everyone and kept the experience intimate without feeling crowded.We absolutely loved this tour and could not recommend it enough!

What an awesome tour of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Trinity College and Book of Kells. Our tour guide Sawako Otaki was very knowledgeable and shared information in a very clear manner. The small group tour is more intimate than a larger group and allows all to participate and ask questions. I highly recommend the small group tour.
