This is an excellent tour! Well worth it! Our guide was funny and knowledgeable. Not a big crowd for a group tour.
Very informative and light hearted, especially after the whiskey tasting ! Gives you a great history of the origins of Irish Whiskey
A very interesting and well delivered tour and lovely tasting at the end.
We had a few hours stopover in the city and lunch and then this tour fitted perfectly.
Very informative, fun and all around great tasting tour. Guide was engaging, funny, knew lots of history. The props and video was super cool in the first room. The coffin and fake fire was really authentic in the second room and the talking photos in the bar room were great!! The whole experience was super zen and fun. The tastings were on point.
This was a super fun small-group experience that did a great job telling the story of Irish whiskey. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the tour both informative and engaging. The whiskey tasting at the end was an excellent way to wrap up the experience. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning more about Irish whiskey.
Linda was not only informative but personable and amusing. The time went by quickly but it was both entertaining but just enough to say you had a good time. Linda made it exciting.
Very nice introduction to Irish whiskey. History, actual industry, tasting. A must do to first comers.
This was a great experience! Our guide through the museum was Lydia. She was amazing. She gave us so much information and in such an animated style!
Excellent, friendly staff, great tour!! We learned a lot of history about whiskey and the area. Must see
The narrator was good. The whiskey selections were ok. I definitely felt it was rushed. Don’t think I would recommend to a friend.
This was an efficient, informative and entertaining experience. Bonus whisky tasting at the end!!!!!
It was the highlight of our first day in Dublin! Lydia was amazing! Great, great ambience, and loved the rich history of Irish whiskey

Very informative and well run. Kinda, our guide, made it very entertaining as well, with a lovely sense of humour. Great value and an hour well soent.
The Whiskey Museum was quite interesting. Each part of the tour is in a different setting and our guide was very knowledgeable and eagerly answered any questions we had. It was fun to learn how to correctly taste whiskey and the whiskey itself was very good.
A great guide telling you a history of the whisky. A nice atmosphere inside and a tasty whisky in the end of the tour
Brien (rhymes with Green) was terrific! Too bad he is married! Lol
Great time to be had with Irish Whiskey!
I loved this tour. Guide Andrew was passionate, knowledgeable. Andrew’s storytelling was amazing. The tour overall was incredibly well designed. The Whiskeys of the tasting experience were great and representative. This tour is a must-do activity for Dublin visitors.
B for the most used name and Green the color of Ireland, get to Breen (which I do believe was our guides name), gave a great tour of Irish Whiskey. I will absolutely recommend this for other visitors of Dublin
Great experience and overview of Irish whiskey history, making and different brands. Enjoyed a tasting of multiple whiskeys.
Samples were smaller than usual. The guide a little irked at times. Certainly it wasn't value for money.
This is a hidden gem. Schedule a tour. It’s delightful. It made me a convert to Irish whiskey. Yes! .
The experience was interesting and the tour guide Linda was nice and helped make it more interesting.
Matt was a wonderful tour guide and funny. We really enjoyed the tour. The whiskey was delightful. The distilled Jameson was my favorite. The piotin whiskey is liquid fire. lol.
It was so interesting and entertaining. Andrew really made this an amazing experience! He was so much fun!
The entire crew is super knowledgeable and friendly. They made the experience fun and engaging, for such a great price. Thank you Vanessa and Matt!
