Great Intro to Dublin

Vic_C, Apr 2024

The route covers all the highlights and the live Driver/Guide shared great info to truely help engage everyone. I was very impressed with free admission to Little Dublin Museum as well

Do Dublin, Do Local

Suzanne_G, Apr 2024

Richie you are a great tour driver/guide! Thank you for a great sense of humor and singing! You brought a smile to us😊

Worth every penny

Louise_O, Apr 2024

All three drivers were very entertaining and knowledgeable. It was very handy to be able to hop on and off although each time we didn't want to leave our driver! The ticket lasted us easily all day and probably could have spanned two days.

Europe adventure 24

Laura_H, Apr 2024

Didn't get to take the tour the busses stopped running just when we arrived in Dublin. We came by Ferry from Wales, but the busses stopped at 530ish. They had no night tour to possible offer. Disappointed

Dublin

James_L, Apr 2024

Live talking guide, Paul. Great! Easy to find and board. Instructions written at boarding locations.! Check Weather. Lower Deck and front of upper deck covered.

Dublin Hop on Hop off

Tim_L, Apr 2024

We grabbed the first bus and the driver was great. We did the entire loop and then got on a second bus and started hopping on and off. There was plenty of buses running thru out the day. It was a good day!

We loved the tour. Bus...

Jeffrey_F, Apr 2024

We loved the tour. Bus driver Ross was great!!!! One issue…the tour stop locations could be more clearly marked on the streets!

Practical and pleasant.

Pamela_W, Apr 2024

The guide gave us a running commentary of the interesting historical information connected to the sites of the tour. The hop on, hop off idea was so useful to visit different parts of the city without walking everywhere.

Disappointed

Grace_S, Apr 2024

The Little Museum moved. When asked it's location, we were given misdirections to its location. We attempted to find it , 4 times . We weren't able to find this museum all four times. No signs, etc . The Hop on, Hop off bus stops were not clearly marked on the streets and we had to walk back to our hotel twice in two days. One of those days was in the rain.

It was OK

Erin_H, Apr 2024

Hard to find the bus stops in real life. Not well marked for tourists. Maybe try the red buss instead.

Best way to get familiar with Dublin

John_A, Apr 2024

Great service, guides were very informative. Buses were prompt and stops were conveniently located near key attractions.

Long wait times for Bus

Georgia_O, Apr 2024

Waited up to an hour on each stop we decided to hop off and go experience. Seemed to only be 1 bus running the entire day, while other bus companies such as "Big Bus" Tours had several

Hi, I was really...

Jacqueline_A, Apr 2024

Hi, I was really disappointed I never got to phoenix park and zoo. I had been to the park about 20 years ago and I was really looking forward to seeing it again. I know traffic can be busy but it was the only thing I was excited to see and I didn’t get. Driver was very funny and knowledgable.

Terrible experience

Cindy_P, Apr 2024

Awful I had two tkts but just could download receipt and booking numberthe driver made fun of me Let me to find that I couldn't enjoy tour while going through all my emails I got told in front of everyone There's one in every tour He seemed to hate America Made fun of Barack Obama And all Who had rich ancestors I gave him 20 euros And got off after 7 minutes Would not recommend

The tour was ok, buses...

Lauren_M, Apr 2024

The tour was ok, buses were infrequent, found it faster and more efficient to walk between stops than wait for the bus.

Highly recommended

Maya_K, Apr 2024

We decided to go for DoDublin as our son didn’t want to walk and it was raining. We saw a big part of Dublin and it was a very nice experience. Highly recommend them.

Great experience

Carey_W, Apr 2024

Easy to find. Easy to get on and off. The guides were entertaining and informative! The busses were clean and prompt.

10/10 would reccomend.

BAHALL_H, Apr 2024

Really enjoyed the hop on / off bus. We got off and on at a couple of stops using our 24 hour ticket. All the drivers were really friendly and insightful into history of Dublin - we learned a lot! Great value and would reccomend. Buses came every 20 mins and on time.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Enjoyed exploring the different monuments and stories behind it. Tour guide was very informative and made it interesting to listen to. Seeing Dublin on the bus brought things to life. Especially enjoyed the free Guinness 😁

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Jeanette_L, Apr 2024

Our tour driver kept going around the roundabout! He was pretty funny & made the tour fun. I wish I would’ve gotten his name.
