Great walk and talk! - Really interesting and informative walk with Cillian. He's a mine of information and a historical whizz. Not a minute wasted! None of the hanging around we've had with other walks. The time just flew. Thoroughly recommend, thank you.

Eccellent tour with Killian - The historical tour with Killian was excellent. He is not only well informed but presents the subject in a relatable way, using a bit of humour occasionally without trying to be a comedian. In two and a half hours he gave a great orientation, connecting the physical facts and places to resulting human history.

Walking with a history lesson - A great way to learn the history of Dublin while walking to some key sites. Our tour guide Ciaran was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of history in an interesting manner. Despite the rain, we were able to go through the entire tour finding a lot of shelter along the way. Ciaran also shared tips on locations to try out different from the usual tourist spots.

Great Walking Tour - We did the walking tour with Ciaran in our first visit to Dublin and thoroughly enjoyed it. It covers many of the highlights of the central city and Ciaran’s a great guide, very knowledgeable about Ireland’s history, and he was happy to answer questions and offer suggestions. Would highly recommend this tour.
