Ciarán was an enthusiastic and informative guide! Not sure this is the must-do tour everyone makes it out to be for the price... I'd read less enthusiastic reviews and make sure it's your cup of tea, but if you have the time for it, like half-pints of Guinness, and really want to hear some trad music with someone knowledgeable who can answer questions, I say go for it!
Neil was a fantastic storyteller, and very knowledgeable about Dublin‘s music and Pub scene! We had a great time and we highly recommend this to anyone that loves music.
Kieran our guide was wonderful. He could not have been more entertaining. It was a really good time.
for the $$$$$$ paid a full pint of beer should be included ,,not the call size
I really enjoyed the trad Irish music tour- it was well organised and our guide was 100% invested in everyone in our group having a great time. The musicians were excellent, and I loved the friendly, authentic pubs, especially the Cobblestone where the atmosphere and community spirit was amazing. It was a really fun and memorable night.
Ciarán is a local musician and has an obvious passion for the traditional music. He was so informative and personable. Do not hesitate to do this!
Loads of fun! Our guide, David, was very friendly and welcoming to all on the tour. Lots of interesting info about traditional Irish music, as well as current music and the local pub scene. The musicians were top notch at the pubs we visited; wonderful experience!
Great tour thanks Nìall! The history of Trad music was fun!
Neal provided outstanding insight into Irish music and how it influenced WW music. Great way to hear local musicians
This was so fun! The musicians were wonderful and I feel as though I got a real taste of Irish pub culture. As well as some delicious beer.
