Excellent Food Tour - For my first full day in Ireland I wanted to get an idea of what to try during my stay, and some ideas for where to eat GOOD food around Dublin. Ketty led an amazing tour. She knows so much about Dublin, Irish food, and the history behind both the food and the places she took us. She has a great relationship with the businesses and owners and it shows. All locations had not only delicious but well-sourced foods and drinks, no chains, only small and well established businesses. You will walk a lot, and you will eat a lot too! In all we visited 5 locations, I think, and Ketty provided a card with the places we went and recommendations for other establishments in Dublin.

100% tour on your 1st day in city. - I have been on many food tours all over Europe. This is by far the best one I have been on. Our tour guide was amazing right from the start, very personable. We then went and got a nice warm freshly baked scone that we ate in the downstairs bakery. It was an amazing 'chefs table' experience. The tour only got better from there, we went to a local coffee shop and got an AMAZING Irish coffee. We got a demonstration on how to make them, and how to drink them properly. We walked through the Temple bar area and got some great tips, we got to try multiple stews with a pint of course. We then went on to try some local icecream and local cheese. I loved the demonstrations we got. Our tour guide was so passionate about the food and where it comes from. 100% recommend. This is also a great tour to do on your first day, as you get a great lay of the land and so many recommendations.

Amazing Dublin Food Experience - Sinead was an absolutely delightful and highly informed food tour guide. She took us to charming restaurants and shops that we would never have found on our own. Additionally, she generously provided a list of other venues to try during our stay. If you are a lover of good food and drink, we highly recommend this tour!

A must-do tour in Dublin - Ketty was a fabulous tour guide. Knowledgeable, interesting and super organized. The tour had a nice flow and everything we at along the way was delicious. Ketty also provided a list of some of her favorite places which is fantastic. Our group wishes we were here longer so that we could try more of Kerry’s suggestions.

Most engaging. A must - What a brilliant tour. Captivating; the history of those who were 'lucky' enough to escape the Irish potato famine 1845-1850. Claire our tour guide was absolutely captivating. She is passionate about her job and to ensures the history is remembered. Buying a dual ticket for the EPIC museum opposite is a good idea. Boat tour 1hr; EPIC Museum 2-3 hrs depending on you choice of 'shows' to watch.
