Beer brings people together

Perfect tour in a small, modern travel bus. Shane, the tour guide, is great and passionate about pub culture. He explained the beers to us and recommended brands. It was also a great group with an international mix and many interesting, good conversations.

My husband's favorite memory

This was a great evening, lots of fun and laughs with fellow travelers as well as with locals at the pubs we visited outside Dublin. The road trip alone is fascinating, lovely countryside, narrow twisty roads, beautiful hedgerows and stone walls. But the absolute best part was our fantastic driver, Sean, who kept the party going! If you want to do something a bit different and enjoy a really good time, don't miss this trip!

Fantastic !

Hi myself and Andrew had the most amazing evening shared with another couple from America, Aaron and Dee Dee. Shane our tour guide was a delight to meet, very funny, knowledgeable and friendly. The pubs we visited were so welcoming, thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, bit of a heavy head the next day and I was introduced to my now favourite drink Dingle Gin! Thanks Shane for a great time love Jane and Andrew xxx

Excellent tour!

This small-group pub tour was one of the highlights of our trip. The intimate size made it feel personal and relaxed, and we got to really enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. Every pub had its own local charm, and it was clear these were places we never would have found on our own. Our guide created such an easygoing, friendly atmosphere and it felt less like a tour and more like a fun night out with locals. Great drinks, great conversation, and a true taste of the neighborhood scene. Highly recommend for anyone who wants an authentic pub experience without the big tourist crowd.

Unforgettable Experience – Do Not Skip This Tour!

We did the Rural Pub Tour with Shane for my brother in law’s 50th birthday weekend and it was hands down one of the best nights of our entire trip. This isn’t a touristy pub crawl. This is real - cozy local pubs, incredible music, hilarious moments, meeting locals, making new friends, and laughing all night long! Shane is an absolute legend and somehow made every stop better than the last, and every pint came with a story. If you don’t like making the kind of memories you’ll still be talking about years from now — this is NOT the tour for you. 😉 If you do like all of that? Book it immediately! 10/10 would recommend! Sláinte to Shane & the Rural Pub Tour 🍀🍻

Thank you Shane!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What an amazing experience! Mingling with the locals, learning about the Guinness rings on the glass, and discovering Gunpowder Gin were just a few of my highlights. Shane’s hilarious personality and beautiful singing voice were an added bonus!!!! It was my favorite part of our trip.

Wonderful tour of small Irish Pubs

Our guide Shane was a joy to spend the evening with. He knows everyone in the small communities where he takes his guests. The pubs, and the people, were amazing. This was probably my favorite experience traveling solo in Ireland

Best Tour of the Trip

Do not pass over this tour when making reservations, it was a great way to mingle and relax with locals and other tourists. We started as a small group of strangers and with Shane’s charm, humor and knowledge we ended the tour as friends. The pubs and patrons made us feel so welcome and we even joined in a few sing alongs. I would 100% recommend this tour and our guide Shane. I would book again if I had the opportunity to return to Ireland.
