Kevin was fantastic! Tons of good stories, history about Dublin, and great food. We especially loved that at each stop we were able to get however much of what each of us wanted since you purchase the food on your own (separate from the tour fee). Definitely worth the money. Hands down, we would do another tour with Kevin when we are back in the area.

Great tour by Kevin, very informative and told us about hidden little gems including a great beer garden in Smithfields. Food was lovely, buying some balleymalloe relish when we get home! Many thanks for the experience Alex and Chris (Manchester)

Kevin was a fantastic tour guide. He provided so much history, fun trivia and recommendations. We weren’t rushed, chose to eat what we wanted and just had a great time.

Great guide, excellent food

Sarah_C, Mar 2024

I absolutely loved this tour. The stops were amazing food, most of which I would not have found to try on my own. Our guide, Kevin, was super friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour!

Great food and company

Rhonda_G, Mar 2024

Our guide Kevin was full of knowledge. Having a 5 course meal of street food wow. Kevin….. Left your glass and more your ………… lol

Great food and guide, decent price

Cassie_C, Mar 2024

Do it! Kevin Rocks! Get the brisket Kevin’s Way!

Jill_P, Mar 2024

This tour was awesome! Kevin was the best guide, not only for history and food but all things Dublin. He had fantastic recs on what else to do and where to go tailored to each guest when the tour was over. He was truly a gem! The food was also fantastic and we loved how we had choices based on his favorites at each place. That way everyone got what they actually would eat and also not as wasteful as some other tours. Everyone was so friendly in the shops and even though my 10 year old eats everything I feel like this is great for kids. The weather was chilly but perfect as well. 10/10 would do this everytime!

Great tour

Rhys_W, Feb 2024

Would urge anyone to do! Kevin was an absolute legend, very knowledgeable for all interests and very accommodating

Great expérience

Pascal_B, Feb 2024

It was a very nice experience Kevin was superb We discovered street food with a professional guide. The only problem for us is that we didn't all understand

Fun for Family

BriannaRae_H, Jan 2024

Our tour guide was great. Our favorite place on the tour was Griolladh. Everyone in our family from age 6- 67 had a good time.

Visit a pub instead!

barbara_r, Nov 2023

Having been on over 7 tours around Europe this year, this was the worst. Fish and chips at an Italian food stop, cheese cake at a coffee shop and a local ice cream stop, that’s not what I expected from an Irish tour! Our guide started out well but into the trip she just rambled as she walked way ahead of the group. She did not wait for the entire group crossing main roads or the crossing lights to change and walked outside the crosswalk. Much of the tour covered local trivia and the guides personal experiences at Guinness instead of interesting historical information. The guide was a lovely lady but not an appropriate guide to share a sampler of Dublin. Save your money and stop at an Irish pub instead🍀

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Hi Barbara, We were very sad to read from your review that you didn't enjoy the tour. I wonder if there was some confusion - our tour, as advertised, is a street food tour. While we talk about traditional food, we bring visitors to places with fun, authentic street food, where you eat like local Dubliners. We also tell stories about the area as we walk. We have deliberately decided not to take a lobster and champagne approach. We make 5 street food stops: breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert and dessert. All of our stops are Irish. In your review you mentioned we went to an Italian stop. This was Dublin's first chipper, where we recommend goujons of cod in delicious Guinness beer batter. It is not an Italian restaurant, it is named after an Irish Citizen. I'm sorry you didn't understand this part. On your tour, you also had our favourite Irish desserts; cheesecake made with Baileys, and unique Irish ice cream, made with dairy from a West Kerry cow with unique Irish flavours (such as Sea Salt and Irish Brown Bread). Again, we share high quality local street food, as we mingle. We have passed your feedback onto the guide, who has only received 5 star reviews up until yours. We tried to call you to further discuss your experience. Unfortunately that doesn't appear to have been possible. This is a real shame as we wanted to speak to you. Sláinte, Kevin & Aoife

Great Tour - Greater Guide

Meghan_H, Nov 2023

Kevin was an excellent guide. Not only did he make suggestions about what to eat, where to drink, and fund things to do around Dublin, he also genuinely showed a care and interest for all his guests. He provided great history lessons and insider, local information to us. Highly recommend.

Response from Host, May 2024

Hi Meghan, thanks so much for writing such a great review. Thrilled to hear how much you loved the tour and Kevin's wonderful story-telling and warm personality. Thanks for joining us, Sláinte, Aoife & Kevin

Fun & yummy!

Desiree_L, Nov 2023

Kevin was great! I’m so happy I went on this tour. It was just the right amount of time. I tried food I never would have & it was so good. Kevin also told us about the history of the city or buildings along our walk, which I wasn’t expecting. I’m going back to my favorite places tomorrow to eat. Thank you Kevin!

Response from Host, May 2024

Hi Desiree, thanks for your wonderful review! Thrilled the hear we were able to introduce you to new foods, new stories and new favourite places!! Thanks for joining us, Sláinte, Aoife & Kevin

Good Food, Good Company, Bad Weather

Jeanne_A, Oct 2023

Food was amazing and a good mix. It was pouring down rain and a difficult day for this tour. Kevin did a great job despite the weather obstacle.

KMaryan_P, Oct 2023

Kevin not only directed us to restaurants and his recommendation of their food but he also gave some history tidbits that are very helpful for our stay in Ireland. I would recommend Kevin and the walking tour to anyone who wants to experience good food in Ireland.

Walking historic and relevant parts of Dublin plus sampling local food - a lot of fun! Learning about the neighborhoods and the Guinness family was fascinating. Made some new friends, too!
