"Ruairi knows everyone in Dublin and this adds to the experience of the food tour for sure. He has his favorite pubs and tables, even shared some whiskey with us! He was extremely flexible to our tastes and changed the direction of the tour as needed to our preferences. Highly recommend Ruiari for your Dublin food tour! "
"David has kissed the Blarney Stone 3 times and has been granted the Gift of Gab! He is so excited and enthusiastic to share his knowledge of Dublin/Ireland. We had a great walking tour with him and learned a lot. Pick him if you want someone full of energy and passionate about sharing stories about his country! "
"Derek, was local, gave us insights into not only the history of Dublin but what it is like living in Dublin today. Great guide, would recommend. Cheers"
"Ruairi was a great host. We enjoyed a variety of local foods and got a lot of inside information on the buildings and neighborhoods we visited. Ruairi was very personable and adapted the stops and the amount of walking to fit our interests. We were hoping for a true local’s perspective on the food and on the history of the area and Ruairi delivered very well on both counts."
"Derek gave us a wonderful and thorough tour of Dublin and surprised us my making sure we saw some of the a once a year performance of Hansel’s Messiah performed outside Christ Church. Highly recommend!"
"Our first time booking with Withlocals turned out to be a fantastic experience!
We had an unforgettable 3-hour tour of Dublin’s southside with Ruairi, a local tour guide I found from website Withlocals and it was absolutely fantastic! As a true Dubliner, Ruairi brought the city to life with his incredible depth of historical knowledge and engaging storytelling. He made every stop feel meaningful and full of character, from iconic landmarks to hidden gems we never would’ve found on our own.
One of the highlights was how he took us off the typical tourist path, visiting a beloved local pub The Ha'Penny Bridge Inn where my son Ruairi pulled his first Guinness, a gorgeous local artwork shop called Jam Art Factory, and Sweny’s Pharmacy a charming non-for-profit bookshop and beautifully preserved old pharmacy made famous by James Joyce. Each stop felt like a little window into Dublin’s heart and soul.
Ruairi also shared some brilliant foodie tips that we took full advantage of, so many delicious discoveries! One was definitely Murphys Ice Cream!
His passion for the city was infectious, and by the end of the tour, we felt like we’d explored Dublin with a good friend who knows all the best secrets.
Highly recommend this tour and especially Ruairi if you’re looking for an authentic, insightful, and truly memorable experience in Dublin."
"Mydie did such a great job of personalizing our Dublin walking tour. She is fun, energetic and informative. Her personality is perfect for this industry. Mydie seemed very knowledgeable and eager to share her vast experience and many humorous anecdotes about the city. Sign me up again with this host the next time I'm back! Ken C"
