Hi Everyone, Cead míle fáilte (a hundred thousand welcomes) to the city of Dublin. Dublin is an amazing City with a deep history in Literature, Music, Rebellions, and not to mention our famous hospitality and Pub culture. While Dublin may have thousands of years of History and even more tales and stories to tell it is a small city and you can walk everywhere so on my tours some of the sights we will get to see and explore include but are not limited to, the General Post Office where the famous 1916 rebellion took place, Dublin Castle, Christchurch Cathedral, and Trinity College where we learn about the incredible book of Kells. I am a professional and passionate guide who has been giving tours of Dublin since 2013. I pride myself on the energy, passion and charisma I bring to all of my tours and I would love to share these attributes with you. I have given over a thousand tours of my City covering every topic you can imagine from Traditional sports, Vikings, The Famine, Independence to the recent IT boom and everything in between. So take a walk with me through the Cobbled streets of Dublin and learn about our folklore and story telling, embrace the Live music you can hear on our streets and pubs, see where U2 busk and Oscar WIlde lived, and meet Molly Malone as I share my passion of this city with you. I have a degree in Psychology, psychoanalysis and a Masters in Computer science. I have been a tour guide in Dublin for over 4 years and was captain of the Irish Chess Olympiad team in 2018. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

On the history and sights we will See Dublin Castle, Trinity College, Christ Church Cathedral, Temple Bar and more. On the Pub side we will go to at least 2 pubs and enjoy the cultural side of Dublin where we can enjoy a drink, understand why Guinness is so unique and learn some Irish language in the most relaxed environment possible. I can customise this tour if necessary.
Carl was very knowledgeable and made you feel very comfortable as he guided you during the tour. Was very easy to talk to and presented excellent recommendations for our remaining time in Dublin that we acted upon. Would highly recommend him. We would use him again if applicable for any future destinations that we may visit!
Carl was GREAT! Informative, engaging and funny. He gave us context for all we would see which was very interesting and helpful. We had a larger group and he did a great job of keeping us on task while meeting and exceeding our expectations. The afternoon flew by. Our group loved him. I would definitely recommend!
Carl was excellent. Highly recommend him
We had a fantastic afternoon in Carl with his history and pubs tour. It was fun learning, sightseeing while enjoying great beers. Highly recommend!!!
Carl was amazing! We loved his depth of knowledge, his perspective and ability to provide complex context to thorny issues. Funny, too bright for his own good, but still warm, kind and generous with his gifts. Don't pass up getting this guy to teach you about Ireland! Thank you, Carl!
Me and my friends had a great tour with Carl. He showed us some of the highlights in Dublin and we visited two very nice pubs. Carl told us interesting stories there. We thought we were listening very well, but nevertheless we did not pass the test/quiz in the last pub. Despite that we had some top hours and we would certainly recommend this tour. Thanks again Carl !
