This walking tour was the perfect way to explore the city with limited time while in port with a cruise ship! Pasquale was an amazing guide- we had the best time exploring the highlights of the city with him. From learning about the Temple Bar area to Trinity College, the Famine and Oscar Wilde - 10/10 experience. Highly recommend! Thank you Pasquale for a great afternoon!

My guide Andrew was outstanding. He exceeded expectations in every way. I was interested in Irish history, culture and must see Dublin locations. The passion he has for the area based on his Irish roots is wonderful. His knowledge is extensive, his storytelling fabulous and an unexpected delight was his singing. It transports you in time. Do not miss this opportunity to spend time with a local and broaden your knowledge of Dublin, Ireland and what're ever suits you. Highly recommend!

Pasquale, our tour guide was very flexible, adjusting the content of the tour based on our preferences before the start of the tour.
