My husband and I had the most amazing experience. We learned so much from our tour guide he was knowledgeable and friendly. He also recommends great pubs (with great prices) and an amazing stake house for our wedding anniversary. Wil be booking with him again when we come back!
Thank you so much Rachel it was great to spend the day with both of you . I’m glad you enjoyed your time with us. Regards Noel

Our tour guide, Noel, was very responsive and got us into all the sites we wanted to see and then some. We had a great day seeing the sites in Dublin.
Ok Miriam is the best in the business. Shes just so knowledgeable and fantastic. She helped us plan the perfect day, and shared so many local tips…. The best!
Thanks Dave , we are delighted you enjoyed your day in Dublin with Miriam. I will be sure to pass on your kind words to her . Hope to see you all again soon .
We were only in town for two days so Dublin in a day was perfect! Our guide, Miriam, was so sweet and gave a great tour. It was so nice to have door-to-door service so we could squeeze in as much as possible. She made great recommendations during the tour and for things to do afterwards. Definitely recommend!!
Thank you ! We are delighted you enjoyed your day in Dublin.I will be sure to pass on your comments to Miriam. Regards Noel
We had a Viator tour in Edinburgh from Ed and he was great. We had a Viator tour from Noel in Dublin that was marginal. Ed was very flexible and our time with him exceeded the scheduled time by an hour yet he was terrific. From the very start, Noel wasn’t flexible at all and our tour time was shorter than expected.
Good evening Daniel , I’m sorry you found me to not very flexible. Just to explain you booked a Dublin tour and then wished to change it as you decided to see Dublin the day before on your own . You then wanted me to take you to the cliffs of Moher instead which is a totally different tour , time wise and cost wise. The cliffs of Moher is on the west coast of Ireland which is a 4 hour drive there and the same back plus the time needed to see the cliffs and stop for lunch 12-13 hours in total. You paid for a local Dublin tour . I told you we could the cliffs at an extra cost but you didn’t want to pay . So after picking you up from your hotel we discussed options to get you out of the city , once again you were suggesting a combined trip to include Waterford city and Kilkenny city which again was a totally different tour experience from a Dublin tour which you booked and paid for . Again I explained that this could be done but would need a price adjustment due to the considerable added mileage and 4 hour time extension needed . You weren’t willing to pay . So I offered you a Wicklow mountain and coastal tour which falls into a similar category , no extra cost which you appeared to be happy with . Once again this tour incurred a lot more mileage than the Dublin tour you paid for but I was happy to do it for you . In fairness I think I was very flexible on the day . Not sure how much of a flexible tour guide you expected . Wishing you all the best on your future trips . Regards Noel
Our private day tour of Dublin with Noel was fantastic. He was both driver and tour guide and was great at both. He worked with us in advance for creating a customized tour that included what we wanted to do. Much better than being stuck on a preprogrammed tour with stops we were not interested in. I highly recommend Noel and this tour!
Thanks for your great review. We are glad you enjoyed the day . It was a pleasure meeting you all . Regards Noel
Miriam was a delightful tour guide! Super knowledgeable and so friendly. It was like spending the day with a newfound friend!
Thank you so much Chris for a great review. Miriam was delighted to hear you enjoyed your day . She sends her best wishes to you both . Thanks again .
Miriam is a great guide! We had a private tour and she revised the day based on what we wanted to experience.
Thank you Kathleen, we are glad we could schedule your day to suit your needs and that you had a great day with Miriam . We appreciate your business and look forward to seeing you again if you return to Ireland. Regards Noel.
Miriam is a terrific guide - she shares history and information of Dublin in a fun and interesting way engaging our teen grandkids as well as ourselves. Enjoyed spending the day with her on our private tour. She determined what we wanted to do and made sure we were able to get tickets. Saw and learned so much about Dublin!
Thanks so much for a great review. I will be sure to pass it on to Miriam. Regards Noel
