About this activity

This is an ideal Walking Tour for those who want to see and learn about all of the main sights of Dublin but also learn about the cultural and important social aspects of life for Dubliners. The Tour will be given to you by a Dublin Tour Guide of 13+ years of experience so there won't be any questions he won't be able to answer. The expectation is by the end of the Tour that Guests will feel they have really experienced the true Dublin but also really understand it's people and it's unique culture.
