Jim was an incredible guide, extremely knowledgeable and very personable. He connect our group which included visitors from all over the world. I’ve always been interested in visiting the Catacombs and the Basilica and this visit exceeded my expectations. Jim (10:30 on Aug 15) made this visit extremely memorable and very interesting.

I tried to get this tour and I went to st Patrick’s cathedral but didn’t know it was at the old st Patrick’s cathedral so I never got to take the tour because I would’ve been too late to go all the way to that location. So I never got my tour
