Magical Evening - Our guide, Milton, is smart, knowledgeable, engaging and VERY funny. Over 4 hours he became my new best friend. I was expecting bar, drink, bar, drink…we got that, but we also covered history, beer, whiskey, gin, Gerry Adams, Liverpool football, Irish-Americans visiting Ireland, Sinn Fein, 1916, 1922, God, American college football, 1000 pubs in Dublin, lithium batteries, Hawaii, scooters on buses, Dubliners are called Dubs…if I forgot anything, Milton, my bad. It was a magical evening. Milton kept telling me if I didn’t let him go home his wife would divorce him. Milton is so welcoming and he has friends in every pub we visited. It was obvious he is well respected and well liked by the staff at each pub. Did I leave anything out?

Great way to start in Dublin - We often like to start our time in a new city with a food, pub or walking tour. Our guide, Rob, was great and had his night cut out for him as we were having torrential rain. On the plus side, the pubs were not as busy. Despite the rain, we still had 12 of us in our group. We had several stops including The Black Sheep, Jack Nealon's, Slattery's and ended the night with a pint and live music at J. McNeills. It was great to get introduced to some local pubs, chat with the group and enjoy some beer and music.

Nice exercise, however not necessarily a must - The tour guide tried everything to make this Pub-Tour a success, however, the group was rather slow, the pubs almost empty (January) and the seating for our group rather poor. It could have been nice, but it wasn‘t.

Great little tour! - Rob was a super engaging tour guide and had a lot of great information about the drinks and the pubs where we visited. The ambiance of the group was friendly. And we ended the night with live Irish music which was fun! No food included but there was an opportunity to buy dinner.
