Go Dublin, Go Green - For all the "hop on hop off" rides available in the city of Dublin, this on seems the most knowledgeable, friendly, and realistic.

Good ride to get to see city - This was a good introduction to the city and allows one to get an overall view of all the places! We had “live” tour guides (vs audio head sets) and they were always pleasant and informative. Easy to get around and plenty of stops. I would recommend!

Nice experience. - The bus tour guides were very good. Combination of recorded commentary and driver commentary. Clean buses. In time. Room enough for all. Sound system worked well, both over PA and earphones. Went close to the places we wanted to see. Never had to wait very long for a bus to come to our stop.

Had a very entertaining ride on the hop on hop off bus - Our guide/driver, Bill. on the hop on hop off bus was extremely entertaining. His commentary was informative but he was also funny to the max. I am so glad I got to ride on his bus. Would not have wanted to miss this experience. No sleeping on this ride. He was a laugh a minute 🤣.

DoDublin hop on/off bus - The staff at the point where the cruise ship tenders land were fabulously helpful. Bus & train ticket combined to keep the price down. Got off the train & straight on to the bus very easily. Carl our bus driver was entertaining & very knowledgeable of Dublin,,, even sang us a song at one point. Couldn't recommend them highly enough,,, do try DoDublin, you won't be disappointed

Great way to spend cruise port day! - Great option for travelers who stop for cruises. We stopped for the day on Carnival. The DoDublin workers were easy to spot outside the train station and gave us easy and specific instructions. Round trip train ticket to and from Dublin city center was included. If you do the whole bus route without getting off it’s about 90 minutes. However, many stops were close together so you can easily walk between them or around the big tourist sites. We would highly recommend for other cruisers! You can also show your QR ticket code at a couple restaurants and get buy 1 get 1 free lunch meals.
