Upplev Gaelic Games i Dublin

Stephen was a great instructor and our experience was amazing! We learned and played the basic skills of hurling and Gaelic football. Our family of four, including two teenage boys, rated it as one of the top highlights of our trip to Ireland! We would definitely recommend it to an active, sporty family!

I came as a chaperone with a group of American university students. THIS WAS A BLAST! We all had so much fun. We got a chance to learn about the world of gaelic game clubs and try out hurling, gaelic football, and gaelic handball. The trainers were lovely, helpful, fun, and encouraging. I would not hesitate at all to bring another group of students here. (And these students might be starting gaelic pick-up games back state-side.)

This is the perfect activity for those who enjoy history and sports. There was one gentleman who ran the history/intro part of the day and another young man, Andrew, who served as our coach and both were class acts--very knowledgable, kind and passionate about the Irish culture. I went with my family of 4 (kids ages 8 and 14) and the rest of our group happened to be college students who were doing an internship also from Texas. You get an overview of 3 sports, get to try them out in drills and then anyone who wants to can play a quick match. It turned out to be a great activity for our family (2 major sports fans and 2 good sports), partly because it was very interactive/good way for my son to get out some energy and partly because the instructors were so wonderful. I also appreciated the fact that a bunch of seniors were using the clubhouse to go through old newspaper articles and another big group was having a luncheon--it was nice to see a range of generations using the community center and sharing the Irish culture.

Well worth it. Went on a stag, 15 of us. Recommend it as 10/10. Everybody enjoyed it.

I can’t even begin to describe how much fun we had experiencing the Gaelic games. Our trainer was super friendly and knowledgeable and we left there eager to learn and play more. If you are looking for something fun and interesting to experience in Dublin I highly recommend this.

12 Men for a Bachelor Trip to Ireland and looking back it would not have been complete without Gaelic Games. Learning about the history, the sports, and playing (or trying to) added a whole new appreciation for the Irish, the community, and sport. On top of all of it, we even were notified about a local hurling match that we were able to get tickets for! Thank you to the whole Experience Gaelic Games staff! Thanks a million for your patience, sharing your knowledge, and adding to a memorable trip!

We had a great time learning to play Gaelic sports as part of a 14-man stag party. This was the perfect activity and, even in the rain, we had unbelievable craic. The coaches were very patient but facilitated really fun games that suited our ability. We got a great feel for what these sports represent in the Irish culture and we enjoyed the Guinness in the bar afterwards. Thank you so much!

Our family had an incredible experience with the Gaelic Games Experience in Dublin. It was a unique opportunity to actively engage with Irish history, culture, and tradition in a way that was both fun and genuinely meaningful. The session struck a perfect balance between energetic participation and more contemplative moments that helped us better understand the deeper cultural importance of the games. Joe was an exceptional instructor: patient, knowledgeable, and highly skilled at meeting everyone where they were, regardless of age or athletic background. He created an environment that was welcoming, encouraging, and engaging from start to finish. This is far more than a typical tourist activity. It is hands-on, authentic, and memorable. I would strongly recommend this experience to active families, teams, or any group looking for a thoughtful and immersive way to connect with Irish culture.

This experience was such a highlight for our family. Jack was patient, understanding, and knowledgeable. From the young (8 yrs old) to the not to young (72 yrs old), everyone had a great time learning the how to of theses games, as well as the history.

This was such a great experience for our family. The coaches and staff were so nice and attentive. We were instructed on gaelic football, hurling and handball. The team made it accessible to our family ages 8 through 50. I highly recommend this activity!
