Great visit!
Sterling was a great guide. I really enjoyed this visit, there’s some great memorabilia to see. The video in the middle could be updated as it’s a bit confusing

A must even if not a music buff
Elie was our French guide. Very knowledgeable and passion about music. This was definitely one of our top tours in Dublin. Highly recommend it even if you're not a music buff. It was our 17 year old son's favorite thing that we did.
