Fun Howth adventure!

Published on May, 2025

James is a very knowledgeable guide and quite the punny fellow! His jokes kept the pacing light hearted. The trip provided ample time to sightsee and take in local cuisine. Highly recommend!

Great live guides!

Published on May, 2025

I love starting each new city visit off with a Big Bus Tour. Dublins live guides didn’t disappoint! There were 2 drivers that made my day - James! What a kind man! He was fun and cared for his passengers! And then Lee! Really enjoyed his humor and commentary of the city sights! I would highly recommend!!!

Great city overview

Published on May, 2025

Robby rocks!

Published on May, 2025

Robby was grand! What the craic! Knowledgeable, polite, understandable, humorous and prefers reviews over tips. Robby rocks!

Awesome coastal tour!

Published on May, 2025

The Coastal tour was amazing. Our driver Jerry was so much fun and he was super knowledgeable about Irish history. I would highly recommend the tour to anyone looking to experience the coast though make sure to get an actual live host, having done the hop on hop off where you listen to a recording I would hands down choose a live host next time.
