    Top choice for a complete tour of the Easter Uprising

    Kathryn_W, Apr 2026
    Emmet made the tour so interesting. He is a true storyteller in the Irish tradition. I had spotty knowledge of the Easter Uprising, but Emmett took all my questions and helped me to create a full picture of my Irish heritage. I may take this tour again to share it with my husband. It was excellent

    Response from Host, Apr 2026

    Hi there, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re absolutely delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your tour with Emmet. He truly embodies the Irish storytelling tradition, and it’s fantastic to know he was able to bring the history of the Easter Rising to life in such an engaging and meaningful way. It’s especially great to hear that he helped connect the history to your own Irish heritage—that’s exactly the kind of personal and memorable experience we strive to create. We’d be thrilled to welcome you back again, and it sounds like sharing the tour with your husband would be a perfect way to experience it all over again! Kind regards, The LetzGo City Tours Team
