Very interactive and interesting tour. There is more things to see at the Guinness Storehouse than there is time to see. Roe and Co. Distillery was also a hit. Making our own cocktails was excellent. Ive been on many tours and I have to say that Dermot was exceptional. He shared great history and insured everyone was taken care of. I'd do the entire tour with him again.

Our tour guide was wonderful - did a great job of giving us the highlights and guiding us thru the Guiness Storehouse (which would have been maddeningly overwhelming otherwise) and taking us on a cocktail mixing / tasting class at Roe and Co.
As a solo traveler, I enjoyed meeting the other attendees and having time to chat.
Margit_W, Jul 2026
very long walking between venues which was not really mentioned in the description of the tour
The Stonehouse was uncomfortably hot
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Dear B5205ACtjb,
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed Richard's company and found his knowledge of Dublin informative. We will be sure to pass your kind comments on to him.
We're sorry that the experience did not meet your expectations. However, we do respectfully disagree with your assessment of the tour. One of the many benefits of our experience is that it includes reserved entry tickets to both the Jameson Distillery and the Guinness Storehouse, allowing guests to maximise their valuable vacation time rather than spending it waiting in admission lines. Combined with a professionally guided walking tour through Dublin's historic Liberties, expert storytelling, and admission to two of Ireland's most iconic visitor attractions, this experience offers far more than simply a tasting.
This tour includes:
Reserved entry to both the Jameson Distillery and the Guinness Storehouse, helping guests avoid unnecessary queues.
A professional local guide who brings Dublin's fascinating history to life.
A guided walking tour through the historic Liberties, one of Dublin's oldest and most characterful neighbourhoods.
Stories of Ireland's whiskey and brewing heritage and the people who built these world-famous brands.
A visit to the historic Brazen Head, Ireland's oldest pub.
The official Jameson Distillery guided experience, including a comparative whiskey tasting led by Jameson ambassadors.
Admission to the Guinness Storehouse, where guests enjoy seven floors of immersive exhibits before finishing with a complimentary pint in the spectacular Gravity Bar overlooking Dublin.
Local recommendations, hidden gems, and insights from an experienced Dublin guide throughout the experience.
The Jameson Distillery and Guinness Storehouse are internationally recognised visitor experiences. They are designed to showcase the history, craftsmanship, and heritage of these iconic Irish brands rather than functioning as active production-facility tours.
We're incredibly proud that this tour has welcomed tens of thousands of guests, has earned thousands of outstanding 5-star reviews, and is consistently recognised as one of Dublin's highest-rated and most awarded tour experiences. While we appreciate that every traveller has different expectations, the overwhelming feedback from our guests reflects the exceptional quality and value of the experience we provide.
Thank you again for sharing your thoughts, and we wish you the very best with the rest of your travels.
Kind regards,
The LetzGo City Tours Team

This tour was a lot of fun and Alan was a wonderful guide. We were able to by-pass the lines at the Guinness Storehouse and had fun mixing up cocktails at the Roe & Co. Distillery. Our final stop at Brazen Head was a lot of fun but this is where the tour ended and we continued! We listened to live music while drinking our Guinness with all the new insights we gained from Alan and the tour. We definitely recommend this tour.

We had a great time on this tour! There was so much to see at the Storehouse - finishing with a drink at the Gravity Bar was perfect! And making our own cocktails at the Roe & Co distillery stop was especially fun! But the best part was the company. Our tour guide, Neil McCourt, told great Dublin stories, dumb dad jokes, and generally kept our group vibe fun. We highly recommend this tour!

This tour is such a fun way to tour Guinness and Roe & Co. in one afternoon. Our guide, Malene, was so amazing, warm, welcoming, and fun to spend time with. We’d highly recommend this tour!

Mary was a wonderful guide. She provided an excellent tour of the Guinness and Roe sites, hitting the high points of each. We had a blast!
Michelle_B, May 2026
This was a great tour. Our tour guide, Emmet, had lots of stories to share with us and it was entertaining. We did it as a family group of 7 with 2 others joining our group. Nine was a nice number to have. We had lots of fun!!
Adam_G, May 2026
Roger , our guide was great, and kept us interested, The guiness tour and 360 gravity views were great, roe and co was brilliant, loved the cocktail making
stran0795, May 2026
This was one of the best tours we did in Dublin! Roger was amazing! He brought us into the Guinness Storehouse and summarized the tour and then let us wander on our own which was perfect! The whiskey tasting at Roe & Co was very well done. We had delicious cocktails that we got to make ourselves. Our last stop was The Brazen Head, the oldest pub in Ireland dating back to the 1100s. We didn’t even bother walking in since it looked very touristy (too crowded). Roger also gave us a list of restaurant recommendations which was great.
Ann_V, May 2026
Excellent tour guide - Martin Drew made the experience enjoyable. He was extremely knowledgeable and was so much fun!
June_S, May 2026
We had a great time. My husband found it a bit long and we were both tired at the end. A lot of walking with no sit down break or water. Jimmy was absolutely great. Without him it would not have been worth going because it was extremely crowded. Had hoped to see more of the actual process of making Guinness and the bottling etc.
Kellen_C, May 2026
This is a wonderful tour! I loved hearing all about the history and fun facts of Guinness and whiskey. Our tour guide, Drew Martin was engaging and kept us on our toes with questions and answers!
Michelle_S, Apr 2026
This was such a fun tour (even as a non drinker!) Mary our tour guide is amazing! So knowledgeable and fun! We had a blast. Please send Mary our love from Dallas! -Chris and Michelle
Julie_B, Apr 2026
This tour was amazing because it was a small group (6 of us). Emmett was a fantastic guide and very well informed. The Roe & Co Distillery is not to be missed. Sean was an amazing guide there.
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
Courtney_W, Apr 2026
Our guide was amazing and extremely knowledgeable. Guinness on the other hand was organized chaos. Soooo many people. It was difficult to take it all in, but a great fan experience if you can slow down and enjoy the rooms.
Adele_L, Mar 2026
Great activity! Our guide, Dermot was wonderful. He is so knowledgeable and also made the tour fun! Our favorite part was making cocktails at Roe & Co! A definite must do!!
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for the fantastic review!
We’re thrilled to hear you had such a great time — and that Dermot made the experience both fun and informative. He has a brilliant way of bringing everything to life while keeping the energy high throughout the tour.
And the Roe & Co cocktail experience… a real highlight! There’s nothing quite like getting hands-on and crafting your own cocktail — we’re delighted it was your favorite part.
We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Dermot — he’ll be delighted!
We hope to welcome you again soon on another LetzGo City Tours experience, whether in Dublin or across our destinations throughout Europe and the USA. Cheers to the next one! 🍸

Hey get on this you if you want to live an adventure. Mary is a unique character. She ‘Lives and Breathes Dublin’, her energy is infectious and exciting.
Nick_T, Feb 2026
Dermot was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable on Irish History. Really enjoyed the afternoon, Guinness Storehouse is amazing and Roe & Co Whiskey is a must see.

Maura was our wonderful tour guide from Letz Go City Tour. She was so friendly, so enthusiastic and really knowledgeable.
There’s so much to see in the Guinness Store House. It’s got everything, heritage, culture and lots of Guinness. Give yourself the time to enjoy. Worth waiting for.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star rating! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our curated content, engaging experience, and the extraordinary inclusions—and especially delighted that your guide made the tour truly stand out.
We’d be absolutely delighted to welcome you back on another one of our tours in any of our other destinations. Until then, thank you again for choosing to explore with us!
Jennifer_W, Nov 2025
Directions were confusing
The staff at the storehouse told us to go to Jamesons, they told us to go the Arthur’s pub . Arthur’s pub didn’t know what we were asking so we ended up walking to Brazen head bar , had a beer then walked to the storehouse and was able to join the tour there.
Response from Host, Nov 2025
Jennifer, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very glad you were ultimately able to join the tour and enjoy the experience, though we’re sorry to hear there was some initial confusion regarding the meeting location.
We’d like to take this opportunity to kindly remind all guests — and readers — that it’s very important to carefully read your Tour Voucher, as it includes clear and detailed instructions on the exact meeting point, including the address and directions to meet your first-class local guide. Unfortunately, when guests go to an incorrect location, we cannot take responsibility, as all the correct details are clearly presented in the voucher.
For reassurance, all other guests on this tour were able to locate the meeting point easily and rated the experience 5 stars, praising both the organization and the tour itself.
We truly hope you enjoyed the rest of the experience once you joined the group, and we’d love to welcome you on another of our award-winning tours in Dublin, or in any of our other amazing destinations across Europe and the USA.
Warm regards,
The LetzGo City Tours Team

Our guide Emmet was fantastic explained everything and went above and beyond what he was employed to do a fantastic experience
George_C, Oct 2025
The philanthropic life of Arthur Guinness was truly amazing. He gave so much back to the community. Impressive man.
Dan_R, Oct 2025
Way over priced. Would have been almost the same experience showing up and paying at the gates. While our guide Emmett was great, you get a guide to walk you through the Irish Whiskey tour and don't really need a guide at Guinness.
Timothy_H, Sep 2025
Our guide Malene was excellent. Super friendly and informative. It was good time for the family. Great pics.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that Malene made your tour such an excellent experience. She is indeed super friendly and always goes the extra mile to share her knowledge in a way that’s engaging and fun for all ages. We’re thrilled your family had a great time together and captured some wonderful photos along the way—it’s exactly the kind of memory we love helping create.
We’ll be sure to share your feedback with Malene, who will be so pleased to know she helped make your day special. We’d love to welcome you and your family back on another adventure with us, whether here or in one of our other cities across Europe and the USA.
