See our TripAdvisor reviews for proof of how exceptional this tour really is:
"Our Dublin walking tour with Garvan Rushe was an incredible experience! We gained a tremendous appreciation and understanding hearing the struggles of the Irish people from the perspective of a local. He was able to communicate in such a way that we felt as though we were reliving the stories he told. In addition to his expertise in Irish history, he was well versed in politics, art, music, languages, and world history. He was also very personable and fun to talk and walk with. The end of our tour was quite enjoyable as we sampled Irish cheeses and beer in a Dublin pub. Garvan went above and beyond our expectations and we highly recommend him! It was our best tour ever!!!"
