We had the best time! Lee was an incredible tour guide. He was so knowledgeable - growing up in the north side of Dublin, that it made the time more memorable. He had great anecdotes to tell with each place we visited. Lee made this tour extremely enjoyable! Highly recommend!

Aidan was so great. We learned so
much about Irish history-and music!- while walking around the city. The places we ate were all delicious and not anywhere we would have known to go, even with research. We were with our 9 and 12 year girls and he made sure to engage them and ask if they had any food preferences and told great dad jokes. 😁 He also accommodated our cancelled flight and moved our reservation so we could sleep a bit. It felt like we were walking through Dublin with a very knowledgeable uncle. Overall, I would 100% recommend this tour-with Aidan!
Response from Host, Apr 2026

My girlfriend and I did this tour in late December '25 in Dublin. Didn't plan on being tipsy by noon but this tour made it enjoyable. Be prepared for an early Irish coffee along with optional wine and shots of whiskey. The food was well selected with oysters, stew, ice cream, among other sumptous delicacies. Very much recommend this fun, feeling and informative tour of Dublin.

We had a great time during our Secret Food Tour of Dublin. Our guide, Ann, was friendly and knowledgeable. She engaged all members of the group in conversation and was mindful of people’s food preferences. This was our second Secret Food Tour (first was Madrid) and it won’t be our last. Thank you.

My absolute favorite experience during my visit to Dublin! Our guide Kieran (I’m sorry if I spelled that incorrectly) was hilarious and had us laughing and learning from the very beginning. You get to try everything from potato ice cream to Irish coffee to black & white pudding to local oysters. Love that everything was within walking distance so you can easily get from place to place. Was such a fun experience and hope to do his vintage shopping tour the next time I’m in Dublin! Thank you!

Lynn_M, Mar 2026
Francesca led a really enjoyable tour of Dublin where we stopped for native edibles along the way. We were schooled in making Irish coffee, ate sausage pastries, sampled cheeses, a couple of yummy baked goods, sampled oysters, ate Irish stew and fish chowder for lunch and then landed in an ice cream shop to sample potato ice cream and indulge in a cup of our choice. Lots of history and anecdotes along the way. A beautiful day and quite an adventure !
