Dave review

Published on May, 2025

Dave was great. Knowledgeable and fun. Kept things moving at a good pace. I learned a lot of Irish history and we saw a lot.

Great Dublin experience

Published on May, 2025

Dave was an excellent, knowledgeable guide who encouraged questions and photos to commemorate the experience. One recommendation is more time in the Chester Beatty library. What a jewel!

Great Guide

Published on May, 2025

Our tour guide, Dave Kavanaugh, was great! He was funny, personable and a good shepherd for his flock of 17. Dave was a fountain of information and interest.

Fantastic Dublin Highlights Tour!

Published on May, 2025

This walking tour was the perfect way to unlock the history of the Book of Kells, Dublin Castle, and Christ Church Cathedral. Our guide Dave was excellent, sharing fascinating stories and ensuring everyone had a great experience. Highly recommend!

Great Tour
