What people are saying about Howth

It was super awesome. I just regret that we only stayed 30 minutes at the cliffs and 1h30 in the fishing village. I would have preferred 1h to the cliffs and 1h to the village. But we loved it. In addition, in the open air bus it was great. We were lucky, dry on the way out so we were amazed. +++

Totally worth it. The guide was really good and the views on the way and at Howth were breathtaking. He then took us down to the pier where there are multiple restaurants and you can have the freshest seafood you'll find.

It was a very nice tour! The guide John was funny and had a lot of interesting things to tell. The view on the coast was great and the town with its harbor was also very nice to look at☺️ Highly recommended!!

We loved the half day trip to Howth - beautiful scenery, lovely fish and chips and a fantastic tour as we were driven on the bus! Can't recommend enough!

John has been a great driver and has given plentiful of information!
