The tour guide (sorry forgot her name) on Sunday 5th February was highly informative, passionate and in love with her job. This keeps the audience engaged and attentive to what she's recounting. If you're into the historical events which shaped Ireland and Dublin today, this tour is for you!

Booked the tour very last minute - and SO glad I did! Daragh was knowledgeable, entertaining, and a true Dubliner in showing us his native city with passion and bringing us into its rich and complex history. Truly the best walking tour I’ve ever experienced.

One of the most interesting and informative walking tours I’ve been on. Our guide, Daragh, was incredibly knowledgeable and an excellent orator who was clearly passionate about the history of Dublin, the city he grew up in. Would recommend this tour to anyone who would like to know more about the complex history of this beautiful city.
