Top 5 Food Tours in Dublin, Province of Leinster

October 1, 2021 Veronika Gaddis

You've probably heard that Guinness tastes better in Dublin (fresh from the factory), but what you may not know is that Dublin is a perfect destination for the whole family. No, we're not suggesting you let the kiddies drink a pint. Instead, take them to the Dublin Zoo, to feed the ducks in Stephen's Green or on a picnic in Phoenix Park. Scholars enjoy walking in the literary footsteps of such writers as Yeats and Joyce, while discerning shoppers have their pick of designer boutiques.

We paid for a food tour for Dublin Ireland for our family of 8 it cost us over $500 for last March and of course our trip/travel was shut down. We cancelled all of our tours including this one ahead of time and we’re told to fill out a form which I did we’ve never gotten reimbursed not even when I asked for credit to use in another city. Everything and everyone else was so good about refunds, please do not use this company as they don’t honor refunds and have stopped responding to me. Unfortunate, because food tours are one of our favorite kinds of tours and our company has rescheduled our trip for 2022 crossing my fingers.

1st let me say that Ketty was a very interesting person and very knowledgeable. The reason i have only rated this 2 stars is that for the cost of $75 USD we had been treated to very little in the way of foods. The stop for Irish stew was great as we got to sample more than a thimble full of something. That was nice. the other places with the other exception of the oysters where many people opted not to try them was also good. The rest was simply not worth the amount of money the tour cost per person. I would not be able to recommend this tour to anyone unfortunately.

I loved these tours. Took them back in April of 2019. The first tour I took was a walking tour of Dublin. Ciaran was the tour guide. He was a total history buff and made the tour super interesting. The next day I went on a tour to a seaside village called Howth. I had a tour guide named Stephen. He was very cool and even preformed Shakespeare in the woods for his group. I hope to take these tours again one day.
