What a great last night in Dublin. Conner was a great tour guide. We learned some good history while drinking and having fun. He really brought the group together.
Good non touristy pubs and pretty good food options as well.
Thank you Conner!

We booked this tour to really experience Irish pubs and celebrate a birthday--but it didn't deliver on either. Generally speaking, most of our time was separated out either in the basement or the upstairs of pubs in private rooms (so you don't really experience the actual pubs) and doing lackluster tastings. (As mentioned, the tastings weren't our motivation for signing up for it, but the beer at the first stop included a generic lager, IPA, and amber--not really specific to Ireland. The second stop was a Guinness, which isn't hard to find.)
Our guide seemed nice enough, but he was a bit out of it, stumbling over what he was saying a lot, seeming to forget to keep us moving, and completely disengaging at points. Several people (including ourselves) didn't even make it to our fourth stop, because after sitting at the third stop (Slattery's) for a very long time (past the time we were supposed to be FINISHED at our fourth stop), ourselves and a nice couple we met finally had to ask him how to get out of there. And his response was to gesture at the waitstaff and say we needed to pay out with them without offering to assist with chasing them down, dividing up the bill or anything. (So I had to run after our server to tell her what we had, so we could finally pay up and leave.) It was honestly a very looong, rather dull experience and we didn't even get the Irish music. (To be fair, I heard they did eventually go there, but we were so over all the waiting.) We hoped to end our Dublin trip and my birthday with this fun adventure, but it was a big disappointment. We did get the included beers and things, but we missed out on the music and the lively adventure we thought we were getting. (We actually had much more fun meeting Dublin locals at the pubs we discovered on our own prior to this experience.)

James made the pub tour very enjoyable. He spoke about the history of both the pubs and the beverages that we tried. We met folks from several countries as well as the US.

Our guide James was a superb guide with lots of knowledge about Dublin, its pubs and its history. The chosen pubs were really great.

Thanks so much to our guide Rob. We had a fantastic time. Luckily we had a small sized group and we were able to socialise with everyone! Rob was super friendly and knowledgeable and we had a great time! We also loved the amount of tasters and drinks we had!

Connor was a personable, friendly, and fun tour guide. And he knows beer! He brought us to a pub with excellent live music at the end. The small group of eight of us plus Connor enabled us to have conversation throughout.

Not impressed. Guide was a nice chap but there is just too much down time during tastings making the experience much too long.

The pubs we visited were local and interesting. The different tastings and the education that we received about each was great. It was a very enjoyable evening with my two daughters.
