Great Pub Tour customized to our preferences! - Had a great time with Austin! Our tour was customised to exactly the types of pubs that we wanted to see (authentic and where locals go and not in the Temple Bar area). Great communication before the trip and flexibility during the tour.

Dublin 2024 - First time to Dublin with our family. Eamon was our tour guide and couldn’t be happier with our experience. His stories and knowledge left us speechless I would recommend him to anyone he is the only tour guide you should use! Cheers long live Ireland 🇮🇪

Pub Tour - Never having been to Ireland, we wanted to visit some authentic pubs, not a tourist trap place. Austin was our guide and we had a wonderful time. Our tour was just our family and it was really nice to meet someone from Ireland and be able to talk with them one on one. Not only did we learn about pubs and whiskeys etc., but we were able to ask questions we had about Ireland. One of my favorite tours.

Evening Pub stroll - Our evening Pub crawl of unique Dublin pubs was hosted by our warm and informative guide, Eamon! The walking tour was custom tailored to avoid duplication of stops we'd made on our own, Eamon is very knowledgeable, sharing Dublin history while we enjoyed, music and pints in several different spots throughout the evening. Eamon is a highly skilled historian, and he shared easily in his Irish "story-tellin" fashion! All 4 of us enjoyed spending the evening with Eamon strolling easily thru the Dublin streets.

Pubs Galore - Eamon was awesome. He knows his history, and is also a true beer connoisseur. We felt like locals while rubbing shoulders with all the pub regulars. Eamon even went the extra mile by scouting a few pubs that featured live Irish music. Take the tour! But, be sure to ask for Eamon if you can.

A Localized Dublin Pub Tour - We started our Ireland vacation with walking tour of the Dublin pub scene by visiting some authentic Irish pubs away from traditional tourist traps. Eamon kept us entertained with some local Irish banter and lively tales of the importance of the Irish rock and roll scene. He truly listened to our requests and fashioned the tour to fit our needs. A great way to prep for the Bruce Springsteen concert!
