Stories, Streets & Soul Walking Tour

Highlights of Dublin

Tour Highlights

You’ll learn how Dublin became Dublin—its saints, scholars, rebels, rock stars, and rogues. Incredible storytelling is our hallmark; less is more and memorable is the goal. Creating a vivid impression of what it is to be Irish and how we dance with life, the famous hospitality comes alive.
Along the way, we’ll tailor food and drink suggestions to your tastes, show you where to avoid the crowds, and offer ideas for the rest of your stay. A perfect mix of must-sees and lesser-known gems, with plenty of conversation and craic along the way.
Paid interior visits into Dublin Castle, Trinity College Dublin, St. Patrick’s Cathedral and Christchurch Cathedral can all be included at extra cost on the day.

Rated 5 out of 5

Jim absolutely crushed the Dublin tour. The whole thing was incredibly well organized, and he deserves a ton of credit for putting it together. From the planning to the stops to keeping everyone on schedule, it felt like everything was handled. Honestly, Jim set the bar pretty high. 10/10 tour guide, 10/10 itinerary, 10/10 execution Huge job by Jim

Jim, Thank you for making our trip to Ireland such a wonderful experience. Michael and I have learned so much from you with all your knowledge and experiences of your beautiful country. We truly enjoyed spending time with you. Thank you for also being so attentive and understanding when it came to my health issues.Thank you for showing us how wonderful the people of Ireland are. We are sure to miss you! Like I said at the airport while tearing up it really did feel like I was saying good bye to our family member. Always remember us - the “O’Pellegrinos” from New Jersey. Until we meet again. Jennifer

My company from California, Singles in Paradise, have used Jim on four of our group trips to Dublin. I can only say great things about his dynamic delivery, sense of humor, and knowledge. Everyone in my group were quite impressed and fond of Jim. I can’t recommend him enough.

Jim was absolutely fantastic. He’s incredibly knowledgeable about the area and has a wonderful way of bringing every place to life. He tailored the itinerary perfectly for our group, making sure everyone felt looked after and engaged throughout the visit. His passion, professionalism, and friendly nature made the entire experience truly special. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommended!

I was lucky enough to join one of Jim’s recent Dublin walking tours, organised for a group of his former students. We explored some of the city’s oldest and most tucked-away corners - places you’d probably walk right past without Jim’s expert eye. His mix of deep knowledge and lively storytelling made the whole experience not just informative but genuinely fun. Easily one of the most enjoyable tours I’ve ever been on!
