(WALKING TOURS ONLY) Hi folks, I'm Fergal, it means "bright man" in Irish Let's see! Born and bred in Dublin, for over a decade I've been lucky enough to guide people around home town. I love to be able to stroll through the city and take in whatever that day's offerings are. I rarely take larger groups now as I guess I prefer a style of guiding that is more based on a chat rather than a lecture. No matter where you are from, I hope that to some extent I will be able to draw comparison between the way we do things here and the way it's done in your neck of the woods. It's incredibly important to me that my guests get an accurate and unbiased account of Ireland's history, culture and politics to name but a few, albeit given from a personal viewpoint. It's equally important to me that you enjoy your time in Dublin. A sense of fun, or 'craic' should be had by you and I both. I'm a bit of a generalist in terms of my tours. In a good days sight seeing we should cover a good amount of not only what's to see in Dublin, but also discuss many topics that will give you a strong insight into life here. However, if you have special areas of interest that that we absolutely must cover, even in great depth, let me know and I'll sort it. In fact that goes for each of my tour itineraries. Being inflexible is a most un-Irish characteristic, so lets not be too rigid. So why not drop me a line and we'll come up with a plan for your trip? - Failte Ireland qualified National Tour Guide - Dublin City Ambassador - City of a Thousand Welcomes Project - MA International Relations, DCU - BA European Studies, Trinity College - Erasmus, Sciences Po Bordeaux I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver. We may have difficulties guiding through the grounds of my alma mater, Trinity College or through the courtyard of Dublin Castle. We'll play it by ear though.

Overview of your Dublin tour

Let's follow in the footsteps of the famous and fabled Molly Malone, through Dublin's Streets broad and narrow. If you ask me nicely, I'll sing a few bars of the song! This tour is ideal for the visitor that might only be passing through the city, or already has a busy itinerary and has just a few hours to spare. I want you to learn how our nations capital came to into being, was moulded over the centuries, and what she's like to live in today. As a Dublin City Ambassador, it's incredibly important to me that my guests get an accurate and unbiased account of Ireland's history, culture and politics. Because you only have a short time, let's cut to the chase. If you're interested in something and less so in something else, let's tailor the tour for you. I want you to be engaged by what Dublin has to offer, and to finish with some great memories of your stay here. Drop me a line and let's go for a stroll!

Fergal was a fantastic guide! He guided us through Dublin for a 3 hour walking tour that included the touristy areas but most enjoyable were the side streets and stories.

My family (2 adults and 2 teenagers) had a great time on our tour of Dublin with Fergal! He was extremely engaging and knowledgeable! He gave us so much information about Dublin and the history of Irish culture. I loved having our own private tour as we could adjust to our areas of interest! I would highly recommend booking a tour with Fergal! You won't be disappointed!

Highly recommend. Fergal is welcoming, knowledgeable. and witty! He took us on a beautiful walking tour of the city of Dublin. We covered a lot of ground, and Fergal made sure to tailor the tour to our interests. We got the lay of the land and learned interesting history, and Fergal gave a lot of great recommendations of other things to check out in more depth during the rest of our stay in Dublin. I highly recommend Fergal’s tour of Dublin!
