I booked the day of the tour and guide tried to say I didn’t contact them before hand but I couldn’t. I did contact while we were looking for the tour group”

“Very interesting tour. We had a small group (being the evening before Easter Sunday) and the tour guide Kate was able to answer all of our questions and was VERY well researched on all of the stories she was telling us about. Very cool (and creepy) stuff that I had never heard about before. Would definitely recommend.

Kate was also great about offering suggestions for things to do in Dublin after the tour was over.Read more”

“We were looking for something to fill our time and this was a great fit. A walking tour that gave us a little bit of history was cool. There were four of us and we paid for each of us, which I wouldn't do again since we were only using two phones. However, something happened with my sister's app requiring her to restart it and it didn't fully save her progress, so because it's location-based, she would've had to go back to a certain spot to be able to proceed (which was my only complaint). We just used my phone for the remainder of the game since we were near…”
