Pub Hoppin w Paul - Paul was our guide. First of all, meeting him was super easy he text me where to go and was easy to find. The tour was exceptional! We went to 3 different pubs, which was fantastic but Paul also gave us a lot of little history lessons as we walked through the city. Paul was the best guide we have ever had and it was sad when the tour was over. He made us laugh and taught us a lot. I cannot recommend him enough!
