Great times with great people

Ryan_R, Sept 2023

This was a great tour with great people. The guide, Rodger, was a class act. If I would change anything, more time inside the Guinness factory to take part in the interactive parts would have been nice. My fiancé and I met some good people and had a lot of fun. Would recommend.

Great tour but not for those who find walking any distance over rough and uneven surfaces painful.

Ian_M, Sept 2023

The guide was most knowledgeable, but I was not aware of the distance I would be required to walk between the two venues, nor was this explained and transport between the two venues. I have bad knees, and the walk exacerbated my pain level, on what otherwise would have been a most enjoyable tour.

Loved it!

Judy_G, Sept 2023

The guide was fabulous! The hosts for both Jameson & Guiness were super fun & educational! Really enjoyed the view from Guiness.

Fun in Irish weather

Charlene_G, Sept 2023

Our guide Maura (Mary) was delightful kept our spirits up literally after trudging through storm Agnes that was in full force during our part of tour walking from Jameson to Guinness we all still were happy and was well organized and very informative if you happen to do this make sure you can handle stairs and uphill walking. Was very fun and I feel the exercise burnt off the alcohol calories

Definitely a 5 Star

Roy_B, Sept 2023

We definitely enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Our guide was fun and had plenty of on topic hysterical anecdotes and stories he shared along the way. We started at Jameson with a cocktail and a wonderful overview of the distilling process that was so engaging and entertaining that you had to acknowledge the Jameson employee’s showmanship. From there we walked to the Brazen Head - a unique pub - for a pint to tide us over until we reached Guinness. At Guinness we explored the floors detailing the Guinness process with our guide culminating at the Guinness bar for a pint of Guinness. At that time we said goodbye to our guide and were allowed access to continue exploring. They have various eating venues inside that were a little pricey but totally tasty and worth it.

Great way to see both distilleries and also learn a little more about Ireland's history!

Christina_S, Sept 2023

I loved being able to easily access the Jameson and Guinness tours. Our tour guide also gave us a lot of history on Jameson and Guinness that I wouldn't have received otherwise. I learned so much about these distilleries and the history of Ireland!

Great first Guinness experience!

Sandy_Y, Sept 2023

What a great way to experience Jamison and Guinness! Our tour guide Jimmy was fantastic guiding us around town. We were able to get to both places and learn about the history of the city. At Jamison, Sean our ambassador was so great! He kept the audience engage by performing an awesome “play” for us throughout the tasting journey. Highly recommend if you just have a few hours to spare. Guinness Gravity bar was beautiful!

Great experience all the presenters were very well versed

Michael_R, Sept 2023

Tastings and product knowledge of presenters. Enjoyable products and actual environment where production occurred

Great tour! Definitely 💯...

Kalina_S, Sept 2023

Great tour! Definitely 💯 worth the time and money. Building itself is a work of art. 7 stories of history and fun. Very informative.

Not What We were expecting

Anne_N, Sept 2023

We were disappointed that there was really no tour of the facilities. And although it was suggested that we eat in one of the restaurants in the Guiness Storehouse, they both closed at 5, just as our tour was ending. The tasting was fun, and we enjoyed the walk from the Jameson Distillery to the Guiness Storehouse.

Great time . Great group

Hank_A, Sept 2023

The tour guides were great, the facilities were overwhelming, weather turned out to be fine, good time was had by all

Nice beverages with some history!

Mary_T, Sept 2023

Moira was a great guide, leading us through the streets between Jameson and Guiness, including plenty of Dublin history as we walked. Highly recommend!!

Excellent experience; highly recommend it!

Srinivas_T, Sept 2023

We really enjoyed the tour. The highlight was having a pint of beer on the 7th floor with a spectacular view of the city. Also, the Whiskey tour was excellent!

Nancy_L, Sept 2023

Our tour guide Neil was excellent. A wonderful storyteller!! The Jameson tour was also informative. I would highly recommend this tour

Great taste of Dublin

Wayne_B, Sept 2023

Mora was a highlight of our tour. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. One note: wish we did Guinness first then Jameson.

Fun and so enjoyable

Ginger_L, Sept 2023

Maura (Molly) was wonderful! So fun and interactive during the whole tour. Definitely. Felt at home with her as our guide.
