Our Secret Traveller loved this free walking tour of Dublin, calling it "the highlight of my trip". "Dublin is an incredible city, for many reasons, especially it's people & characters - and these guides are some of the best of them! Authentic locals, they deliver their extensive knowledge in a fun, witty, thought-provoking and imagination-stirring style, making the whole thing feel personal, engaging and interactive. They happily take, and indeed invite, questions, and share their fantastic local hints and knowledge to help you embrace Dublin in a way you simply couldn't otherwise. A perfect pace, all the key sights and lesser-known spots, incredible history and remarkable culture make this one of the best tours I've ever done!"

On foot:
Our meeting point is in front of The Old Storehouse Bar & restaurant, 3 Crown Alley, Temple Bar, close to Temple Bar Square in the heart of the city. Dublin is easily walkable, and the meeting point is just a minute or two from Trinity College, Dublin Castle, and the Ha'Penny Bridge, so you'll easily find it using Google Maps, or by asking someone on the street. Once there, you will see our guides with green umbrellas and name cards right in front of the bar.

How do free tours work?
It's simple—you're free to pay what you feel the tour was worth at the end. Your lovely local guides don't receive any income other than tips from satisfied customers like you, meaning top-quality tours on fair terms. Enjoy!
Contactless payments are facilitated on most tours.
