This tour was the perfect introduction to Ireland and the city of Dublin. With John as our guide, the tour was thorough, informative and a lot of fun. John contacted is in advance to see if there were specific sights we wanted to see, he worked the tour times around our arrival into Dublin and this man knows his history. Plus, there several stops to taste the best of Dublin - including Guinness and gelato (not together, of course). We would highly recommend this tour and John as your guide.

Eamon was an incredible guide. Very knowledgeable! He gave just enough information without going into too much detail. I would definitely recommend this tour.

My wife and I took a tour of Dublin with Garvan. He was extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Garvan took us to major locations/sites such as Trinity College and The Book of Kells but also gave us multiple options along the way so it felt like our needs were being catered to. We had never been to Dublin before so it was a fantastic way to learn about the rich history and culture. We highly recommend this tour.

Austin Rock is awesome! We had a great walking tour of the city with him. Austin is very knowledgeable of the city and Country's history. He did not rush us thru the city which was appreciated, bc my wife is not a fast walker. Definitely recommend Austin.

If you love walking, history, culture, etc, this tour is worth every penny. We paid extra for a private tour, so just two of us and the guide. Austin Rock was fantastic company and we learned so much from him, things we wouldn't have known or walked passed. Austin is so knowledgeable and brought everything to life for us. He also has a wonderful sense of humour. Felt like being shown around by a friend. Very highly recommend.

John Caffrey is an extraordinary tour guide - a real gem. My wife and I feel so lucky to have found him. He took in our thoughts and preferences in designing the tour, and modified it as we proceeded, incorporating new elements he correctly anticipated we would like based on how we responded to other sites. He is encyclopedic in his knowledge of Irish and Dublin history and cultural matters and placed everything in appropriate context. He's tremendously energetic and understated. We cannot recommend him more highly.

Austin Rock was an amazing tour guide! He was very kind and really made my family and I feel welcomed & informed about the city of Dublin. We visited all the way from Miami, FL and will definitely recommend this tour for all!

Wow! Our tour was awesome! Austin is a rockstar at being a guide! We left the tour overflowing with facts and stories. The only disappointment is that we can't remember everything! Will be recommending this company and Austin to anyone coming to visit. Thank you, Austin!!!

This was a great tour. I especially enjoyed touring the cathedral. Our tour guide, Austin was not only very informative, but a great host. Whenever the group split off, he was sure to be sharing with someone, such as me, and keeping us on schedule. Thank you Austin from Dr. Claudia

He was pleasant and patient with us. He was well versed in the information. Thank you so much for the adventure.

My choir, Sounds of Joy, made our first-ever trip from The USA to sing and visit with our choir friends in County Mayo. After our time there we traveled by motor coach to Dublin to spend the last few days seeing the sights. A walking tour was set up by our travel planner, 115 Travel, for our first full day in the city. Oh my, what a great day we had with our super terrific tour guide, Austin Rock! Let me tell you how much we all enjoyed the day. Austin was THE best! He met us at our hotel, traveled with us into City Centre, gave us an overview of what the morning would include and started off our time at Christ Church Cathedral. His knowledge of Irish history, the must see sights of the city including Trinity College and surrounding area, his accommodating personality and sense of humor confirmed we were in good hands. He managed to keep track of us all and showed great patience for those of us who wandered off for souvenir shopping. He gave great directions for us to use when touring by ourselves later that day and the next.We continued on our own walking (spending) tour for several more hours, even taking the tram service LUAS, back to the hotel without issue. (Thanks Austin) We will remember this trip and him! We hope to return and when we do, Austin well be our pick for touring! He may even get us a chance to sing for a service at the cathedral.

My husband and I visited Dublin for three days. The most important thing for us with such limited time was securing a private tour that would provide us not only with the lay of the city and community but also a sense of the history and culture. We were very fortunate to have Austin Rock as our guide through Dublin Tour Guide. He was easy going, adapted the tour to our interests and gave us a wealth of information that we would never have received from a large group tour or self-guided tour. While our tour lasted only 5 hours, we were able to visit and experience much of Dublin, from the National Archeological Museum, Trinity College and the Book of Kells, to walking historic Dublin and Dublin Castle and learning about the Irish Revolution. We were interested in the religious side of the city and visited Christ Church, St. Audeon's Church and much more. Austin found out that we wanted to go to Howth the next day and sent us information on bus and train access and a map of Howth to make our trip there fun and without stress about going someplace we didn't know at all. He also gave us suggestions if we have an hour or two left and wanted to see something special, which we did! I would recommend Austin Rock to anyone else wanted an immersion into Dublin history, culture and city life.

Brendan was fantastic! Very cool way to see Dublin up close - - knowledgeable guide, relaxed pace and all around fun day!

First of all, the venue for the tour (Dublin) was amazing ... but the very best part of it all was our guide, Carl. I would give him 6 stars if I could. Our first stop was a sit-down that featured a 20 minute walk though Irish history that was concise, complete and captivating. From there we walked through amazing scenery, bits of history, and even some of the local color on both sides of the river. With lots of laughter along the way.

This was our first time hiring a private tour company, and we could not have imagined a better experience. Carl was the best possible guide, as his knowledge and perspective on Irish (and Dublin) history was exactly what we were looking for. He clearly loves his city. He took us to some fascinating, out-of-the-way places we would never have known about, and shared perspective about current affairs with insight and wit. He recommended a pub where we had a great dinner afterward. He is also very, very funny. The booking experience was straightforward and the communication before the tour was good. Can't recommend enough.

Mark Hanratty took my husband and I around on a private five-hour walking tour of Dublin. The tour was a perfect mix of history and legend, and we never felt like Mark was rushing to the next thing or losing track of time. We saw so much but never felt overwhelmed. Mark was knowledgeable, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. We had a great time and we would definitely recommend to others.

Great way to see Dublin! Mark, our tour guide did a great job showing us around and giving us some history of Ireland.

This was a perfect tour. Eamon our guide was both incredibly knowledgeable and interesting. We thoroughly enjoyed our time and were able to see the main sites while also getting a true sense of the city. Great experience! Thank you!

Carl is an outstanding tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about Irish history and Dublin. He thoughtfully asked questions upfront and tailored our experience beyond our expectations. We would highly recommend him to anyone!

Brendan was an excellent tour guide. Very knowledgeable and personable about the area and history of Ireland. The five hours and five miles flew by!
