I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a 2-hour private tour of Dublin, and I must say it was an outstanding and memorable experience. Our knowledgeable guide provided us with an insightful journey through the heart of this vibrant city, offering a perfect blend of history, culture, and local anecdotes. Thank you !
Our guide Jorge was not knowledgable about Dublin, and had only lived in Ireland for a year (he moved from his native Columbia). He didn't even live in Dublin so was not very familiar with the area. He did not have informative answers when we asked him about certain sites and locations. We would have been better off with the group waling tour which was 1/2 the price! I believe Viator is a good tour company but they should not have assigned our guide for this tour; he was not ready to do this -- so ask about your guide when they assign one: how long have they done Dublin tours, how long have they lived in Dublin, etc.
Hi Mark! Thank you for taking the time to share this with us! We are sincerely sorry that you had a negative experience on your tour. Guydeez is about creating happy memories and because of this, we have already contacted you via your email directly. Once again our apologies for this inconvenience and we hope you give us a second chance. Warm wishes, Guydeez Team
We enjoyed the in depth stories on Ireland's history and writers and the great walk including the parks. Our guide was really great, generous and witty, we loved it!
