Dublin: Private Pub Crawl Tour

10. Dublin: Private Pub Crawl Tour

Dublin is where pubs are born. Some do not survive, many leave the Irish shore, but few age as gracefully as the stable pubs that bestow so much character on Dublin. Avoid the tourist traps and fake 'Irish' pubs, and escape with the locals to learn how to savor a pint of Guinness on this pub crawl. Find out how to ensure you always get a great pint and why it's important. Follow in the footsteps of the Irish literary giants like Patrick Kavanagh, Flann O'Brien, and Brendan Behan. If Dublin has hidden gems, they're the pubs that don't advertise to tourists. The locals. The authentic Irish pub where the conversation is flowing faster than the beer, where the character of the pub is as fascinating as the characters in it, where literature, society, and history eternally live. The best time to start is 7 PM, assuming you've eaten dinner prior to the tour. Bring a pen — you never know what these aged walls will murmur to your thoughts.

Had a great time on the bar crawl! The bars we went to were great and had brilliant entertainment. Free shot in every bar and good drinks deals with the wrist bands! The guides and everyone on the bar crawl were all really friendly! Would definitely recommend and will definitely book again if ever in Dublin! 10/10!

Very enjoyable and affordable experience. Where else in Dublin would you get two cocktails for the price plus get to make one of them yourself. Would definitely recommend this experience.

This was great. Billy was a great host and we had an awesome time trying the whiskey and mixing our drinks. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Dublin who enjoys a good whiskey. :)

We really enjoyed our experience! Great value for money and all of the staff were so friendly, exceptional!
