A must do authentic pub crawl in Dublin - This was the highlight of our trip to Dublin. Donal is a fabulous tour guide, so passionate, genuine and knowledgeable about Ireland. From pouring our own Guinness, to tasting whiskey and learning about Irish history, we had a truly authentic pub experience we would never had had without him. Donal went out of his way to make this truly special! Thank you Donal!

Crawl Like a Local - If you want to pub crawl with a native Dubliner, this is the tour for you. Donal is engaging with his knowledge of the pubs, their histories, his personal stories, and his friendships with the proprietors and tenders. Have conversation in a snub. Pour yourself a Guinness. We aren't big drinkers and enjoyed the conversations and the settings. A must for a visit to Dublin.

Great knowledge with a great sense of humor - Donal provided a to notch experience for us. The way he intertwined his lifelong memories into the tour was great. He historical and contemporary knowledge mixed in with a great sense of humor. If you are only looking for a lame tour, go with someone else. If you want to feel like you have been lifelong friends, this is the one. Thank you for a great afternoon!

A can't miss Irish experience - It's difficult to put into words just how special and wonderful the pub tour with Donal was. We've been lucky to do many tours all over the world and this one has to be the most memorable. Donal brought us the genuine warmth, openness, wit, and kindness that is so characteristic of the Irish people. We got to experience local pubs that we wouldn't have found on our own. They even brought out a birthday cake and the whole pub sang for my husband's birthday. It was a night for the books. I really feel lucky to have gotten to do this, and I cannot recommend it enough. Don't think, just book! 💚🤍🧡

The best tour Dublin you'll ever have. Jokes, magic, history and best of beer! - An absolute blast with the best tour guide. So much information about the city, pubs, history, roads, people of note. We started at O'Connell and made our way weaving through the side streets and visiting some of the most amazing pubs Dublin has to offer. All while Donal led us on a journey with history, stories and fun. He's very informative all matched by his wit and charm. Really carried us through the entire hour and half we spent with him. We stayed then and got so many more tales and stores of Dublin of old. It was so clear from our experience that Donal is well known in each place we visited, often getting snugs or private space for us in busy pubs. Welcome drinks and no time waiting for a pint if Donal ordered them! Donal had so many recommendations for all over Ireland we plan to visit Ros castle in Kerry off his recommendation, since were heading to Kerry after our stay in Dublin. No doubt he'll have many great gems of places to visit all over Ireland.

Informative & Fun - We very much enjoyed our time with Donal. His witty, informative tour made for a lovely afternoon. The pubs we went to allowed us to get a taste of Irish culture. We felt like it allowed us to get to know Dublin on an entirely different level. Thank you Donal for a great day!!
