Intro to Dublin - Great intro to Dublin with entertaining hosts! It was a rainy morning, and this boat ride offered a little history (and lore) with shelter from the rain. Recommend!

Worthwhile, no matter the weather - Despite a dreary day, it wasn’t as much the sites that made this a great experience but the stories. We learned so much about Ireland’s history and the hardships that made Dublin the city that it is today. Great narrative and new perspective seeing the city from the water.

A fun history tour - I booked this last minute due to the awful rain and what an excellent decision. Tony and Jerry were such a comedy duo making the 45 minute tour fun and entertaining. Well worth booking.

Good brief overview if you aren’t looking for depth about the city - A nice little boat tour to get an introduction to the city. Student ticket prices are reasonable when booked using get your guide. Every seat is a window seat which is great so you don’t have to get there really early. Not much depth in the tour- if you want depth you’re better off doing a free walking tour of the city and it doesn’t cover anything to do with the highlights of Dublin (trinity ect) so just be aware its very much about the buildings off the river. Overall, guides were great and engaging, just short and not too much depth about the city.
