Description

Step into the heart of Dublin with a guide who is a third-generation local Dub. Dublin is a city rich in its history and storytelling, and our guides are no different! On this tour you will be brought to the hot spots of the city for culture and landmarks as well as some of the less well-known places while being provided with some local hints and tips. Dublin is a city that has changed and grown throughout the years, as you will observe on this tour. Our guides have their own local knowledge and stories to tell, making each tour a little bit different from the last. Our guides are here to answer any questions you may have to make your time in this beautiful city the best one.

Our tour starts from The Spire in O'Connell Street, where we will learn about the GPO. We will then stroll down to the River Liffey before crossing at the Ha'penny Bridge. We then will explore Temple Bar before going into Dublin Castle and then will meet a local legend in Molly Malone before taking a quick visit to Trinity College and then up past the Dáil Éireann, where the government of Ireland sits. Our tour will end in the heart of the city at St. Stephen's Green.

Had an amazing time on my tour with Ruairí, who was very lovely and attentive! Super informative, very well-paced, and had a great balance of the big Dublin hotspots and hidden gems. Definitely recommend!

Dublin by foot

Guide was knowledgable and informative. The tour goes to places that would be easy to miss without a local guide. A great way to start any visit to Dublin.

Was very impressed

The tour started early but I'm glad I got up for it. The tour guide was excellent and well spoken. He showed us all the important streets and gave us enough time to take photos. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the city. He answered any questions we had and was patient with everyone. I would recommened this free tour for some stories, knowledge and places to eat and drink!

Brilliant tour, highly recommend!

I had a fantastic time on this tour of Dublin! He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and entertaining, and brought the city’s history to life with some great stories and local insights. The tour was relaxed, engaging, and a great way to see Dublin from a local’s perspective. Ruairi clearly loves the city and it really comes across in the way he tells the stories. I’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Dublin — especially if you want to learn about the city while having a good laugh along the way. Thanks, Ruairi! ????
