WHY MY TOURS ARE DIFFERENT

👋 A Dublin Friend - It's more like going for a walk with your Irish friend. It's a conversation, not a lecture. We chat about Irish life, history, culture, and people.

THE VILLAGE HIGHLIGHTS

This is local Dublin at its most real - authentic village life where actual Dubliners live. We'll explore Raheny Village, which no other guide recommends, then through St. Anne's Park (the Guinness family's former estate) and onto Bull Island - a unique nature reserve and UNESCO Biosphere created by a Dublin Port wall.

  • Discover the real Dublin that most visitors never see
  • Explore St. Anne's Park - home to 25,000 roses and hidden trails
  • Walk Bull Island, Dublin's accidental natural treasure
  • Visit a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve without leaving the city
  • Enjoy tree lined streets and beach paths away from city crowds
  • Taste local food from Dublin's best farmers market (Saturday tours)
  • See where Brent geese migrate from Arctic Canada each winter
  • Witness Locals Play Gaelic sports in the park
  • Experience genuine Irish village life and coastal culture
