Caroline was amazing guide. Her stories of each segment of the walk gave me greater depth of insight of the location's visited. I will take home with me most of all was a day with kindness and joy from sweet Irish soul sharing her lovely city.

The Dublin in a Day Tour was excellent! Our tour guide, Niall, was great. It makes such a difference to have a local conduct the tour.

This was an amazing tour that packed A LOT in a day. Our tour guide, Niall, was knowledgeable and funny. Although the tour is a little pricey...it was well worth the price for all the sites we were able to visit that day. It did help that the weather cooperated and we had a beautiful day of walking through Dublin.

Niall was extremely knowledgeable and his deep love of his city was very evident. His explanation of the history of the Book of Kells and the Long Hall at Trinity College made this stop the highlight of the day. The whiskey tour and the Guinness Experience were excellent as well. One member of our group had a sore hip which affected his speed. Niall was very solicitous and made sure he waited as necessary without delaying the group. It was a very enjoyable and informative day.
