Went on a weekday and was a group of around 20 people, a mix of groups and solo travellers from all over the place. Our guide was really welcoming and knowledgeable. The bars were fun with amazing live music etc. We spent 50mins - 1 hour in each bar, the drink deals are brilliant (like half the price for the selected spirits with mixer) so well worth £12 and the wristbands make it easy to identify yourself to the bar staff for the discounts. Felt safe with the group the entire time as a solo female traveller.
Would definitely recommend this!

It was a fun night out, mostly younger people during the week with a broader mix of ages during the weekend from my understanding. A great way to meet some new people.
Diego_O, Aug 2026
Had so much fun, the guide was so fun and the bars were great. Local bars had great deals on drinks (especially the secret Bailey and Guinness shot). Make sure you order separately and it’s usually on the house.
Priscila_M, Aug 2026
It’s definitely worth a visit – I’d recommend it. The guide is great fun and you get to see loads of cool places
Graham_H, Aug 2026
Ok pub crawl, quite disorganised on signing in. Some good drinks deals so the experience probably paid for itself. There wasn't really anything that you couldn't have done yourself by just going in pubs around temple bar. After the third pub there was a roughly 20min walk to the fourth pub. This wasn't a good shout no toilets on the way and quite sobering by the time you got there. Your guide was very good though and was engaging.
Ven_O, Aug 2026
Great idea to bring a diverse group of ages and backgrounds together. Our host, Dan, was awesome keeping the group together and talking to everyone in his group. The challenge was the inconsistency at the bars. Beers and shots were only free at a few places but nonetheless drinks were cheaper than usual. You just had to confirm yourself at each pub. I would still recommend this to all regardless of age or country origin.
Alex_C, Aug 2026
Lots of fun!! We booked it on an impulse and were kind of unsure about doing it. It was a great way to experience the Dublin pub scene and meet people from all over! Our guide, Johnathan, was awesome!
Nicole_I, Jul 2026
So much fun! Went solo and met really cool people! Loved our tour guide Simone and all the pubs were fun
Sara_H, Jul 2026
Jonathan was a wonderful tour guide! The other tour guides seemed good as well. This was a lot of fun on our first night in Dublin!
Andre_J, Jul 2026
Daniel was awesome ! Loved the energy and everything. The bar crawl in general is well organized as well
Amber_P, Jul 2026
The best pub crawl ever! Simone ! Mr blondie and Mr mustache were the loveliest tour guides. Very bubbly and helpful. Thank you for the experience :)
Ravi_S, Jun 2026
It was a fun pub crawl with discounted drinks. The Trinity Bank was the only pub that was a bit hot, muggy and dingy. Simone and Daniel were good guides full of energy.
Kurt_I, Jun 2026
Had a good time, guides were fun and the mix of people was great. It got a bit confused at a couple of moments but the guides made sure we knew when to be outside for the next pub.
Annika_L, Jun 2026
We had so much fun and Ben was the best guide ever!!!! He is literally the most amazing person ever and kept us having fun the entire time even on the walks between pubs. He had the best energy and gave us tons of cool facts about each pub. Would 100% do this again next time I’m in Dublin especially if Ben is there. Basically we all had the time of our lives and we all love Ben!
Lily_K, Jun 2026
Our tour guide, Ben, was amazing!!! Definitely recommend!!! The drink deals were great and we had so much fun!!
Christopher_B, Jun 2026
If you guys are lucky enough to get Ben as a tour guide, you are in for an amazing night in amazing places. Went on a Monday night in June, and the pub crawl was around 20-30 people and many amazing folks. 10/10 would recommend and would do again!
Laurie_D, Jun 2026
Great time! Fun way to see the heart of Dublin! Great atmosphere and live music at each spot made for a good night.
Sareena_B, Jun 2026

Kaleb_N, May 2026
Amazing guides! Fun if your in your twenties. Oscar and Simone were great. Meet great people and had so much fun.
Jo_L, May 2026
A great thing to do if you are looking for a night out with random strangers and a silliness. Great host called Daniel who made it even more fun. Definitely recommend and fantastic value
Ayah_H, Apr 2026
Everyone was so nice! Our tour guides were great and made sure everyone was safe and taken care of. Great drinks & discounts at the selected bars. I remember one guide was Daniel (I can’t remember the other guide’s name, but both were super nice)
Delaina_W, Apr 2026
Some of the pubs were better than others but the main problem is how many people were doing the pub crawl.
There had to be around 100+ people in the pub group and they separated us into 3 groups.
It just wasn’t personable, too many people to make connections and enjoy each venue.
The guides were obviously overwhelmed but our guide had a great personality.
If you’re used to small group pub crawls then it might not be for you.
But if you don’t care and just want to walk with a large overbearing crowd through the streets then this is for you lol
Oh and there’s (certain) drinks we got for discount prices.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Hi Delania. Thanks for joining us, and for your review. To clarify, there were 84 participants in total which were divided into 3 groups at the meeting point, as you've mentioned. This made for 3 standard sized groups which, for a weekend night, is certainly not considered large, indeed it's a little less than typical for weekends in Dublin. Sorry if you had different expectations, or found it difficult to make connections with any fellow crawlers. Thankfully, the pub crawl is regularly lauded for the ease it affords people to meet and connect and have a fun night as a group. As you've rightly mentioned, Delania, for anyone reading looking for a more quaint jaunt to a few quieter pubs with a handful of people, this isn't for you. However, if you want a fun night out with a good sized crew of like-minded people, free welcome Guinness, free shots, exclusive drink discounts, and free club entry, as the description describes, then we are absolutely what you're looking for.

Very nice even though there was a lot of people the pubs were nice and simone made us all welcome
We had a shot called the slippery nipple it was very nice lol

Melanie_S, Mar 2026
We weren't expecting so many people, there were 120 but actually it meant making new friends. A bit confusing as the description didn't say about being split into groups and taken a group at a time to three places an hour at a time but we worked it out. The 3 places were fun with good music, shots were good obviously. Well worth the money. A shout out to Oscar, he was fun and herded us well.
Taylor_G, Feb 2026
Fun, great meeting new people from all over the place and hearing the history behind the pubs! Would recommend !
Jacob_B, Feb 2026
James is the best! Um yeah it was super cool checking out some of the local and tourist spots around town. Great people. Great vibes. ✌️
Katrina_S, Nov 2025
Top tier! Best one I’ve ever been on. We <3 james! So many discounts and great locations. Met wonderful people!
Kylie_H, Nov 2025
What a night!! The pub choices were spectacular and the tour guides were great (shoutout Lee, Brian & Aiden). We met people from other countries and had a blast. Highly recommend :)
Nicola_W, Oct 2025
Such a good night!! Guides are really enthusiastic. Well worth the money, free drinks and discounted drinks, why wouldn’t you do it!!!!
kalaichelvan_m, Oct 2025
do not go solo. have a few friends with you. The drink prices are not much of a discount. I had to actually pay more for my Guinness. I don’t think i will go for pub crawl again.
Response from Host, Oct 2025
Sorry to see you were less than satisfied, Kalai - it's disappointing to read because the Pub Crawl is often cited as a great way to meet others, and an ideal activity for solo travellers in fact. Of course, one gets out of the social aspect of the experience what they put in, and that's different for everyone and some find it easier than others to embrace the chance to mingle and connect, so perhaps we (the guides) should have done more to help you interact with fellow crawlers and engage with the group dynamic on the night; sincerely sorry if we fell short there, Kalai.
As for drink specials and discounts, there's 24 drink specials available throughout the night exclusively to pub Crawlers, and the average saving is about €2.35 per drink, which is pretty decent, in fairness, at a €14 price point which also includes free welcome Guinness, free shots, and free entry to 2 paid venues too (saving up to €25 on entrance fees alone). I'm not sure how you ended up paying more for Guinness as you've mentioned, perhaps not showing your wristband when ordering (?), in any case if you'd informed us we would, of course, have sought to rectify it with the bar for you.
Sorry again to see your experience wasn't all it could have been, Kalai, but thanks for giving it a go though, and I sincerely hope you were able to have some fun in Dublin otherwise.
