1916 Dublin and Thomas Ashe
Walking Tour

"Antóin is a reliable guide in Dublin. He is a native Dubliner with excellent knowledge of the city's history, culture, literature, and landmarks. He is flexible, attentive, and client-oriented. During my next visit to Dublin, I will definitely turn to his services again – especially for guiding teenagers through the city's sights."

"Antoin is unsurpassed for knowledge about and enthusiasm for Dublin. Not only does he convey an impressive range of history but he peppers his talks with wonderful and engaging stories and tales, including about the city’s many eccentrics. And there isn’t a question he can’t answer and is patient with any odd query. For an informative and inspired tour of Dublin, a walk with Antoin is a unique and memorable experience."

Antoin was a great guide with such a wealth of information and knowledge about the history of Dublin and its origin and how over the centuries, things have changed.

Rosanna

"Antóin took us on a long 5h walk through Dublin. With lots of passion delving into the cities Viking history and more recent the Irish struggle for freefom. Not forgetting to show us the brightest Georgian building and the darkest Irish pubs where Davy Arthur and the Fureys used to play and some of the colourful Dublin figures dwelled. Thanks Antóin for showing us your city!"

"Our tour with Antoin was excellent! In addition to the information about the various buildings, parks, statues, etc. in Dublin, Antoin gave us an in-depth history lesson of Ireland - the Vikings, the famine, the 1916 rebellion, the many poets and writers, etc. I highly recommend taking a tour of Dublin with Antoin!"
