Robbie…what a great guide! - Just had the funniest driver/guide on the bus tour….apparently we are not to say “Top of the morning to you” unless you want a smack in the face! “What’s the Craic?” is acceptable though He said he couldn’t wait to leave school, was told he wouldn’t earn a living staring out a window and talking all the time! He proved his teacher wrong 🤣🤣🤣 He definitely knows Dublin’s history though! Oh and his name is Robbie 😜

Great Half Day Tour to Howth - Great half day tour to Howth. Our bus driver, Jerry, was a fantastic tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour. Highly recommend!

Dublin in a “pint” - Catherine was a great driver and a spectacular tour guide! She let us know all sorts of information on Dublin, tourist attractions, tales and legends of history, and tidbits of helpful information for tourists to be wise with our hard earned pennies. All of this she communicated with gracious and witty humor. Highly recommended!

Great Experience! - We had a great time on the tour. Jerry was a fantastic tour guide, he shared stories and history along the way. We lucked out with the weather and got some great views. I would recommend if you are looking to see Ireland’s coast line and need a break from the city. I only wish we could have had more time at the top of the cliff to enjoy the view.

Great Hop on Hop off tour! - Big Bus Dublin is a great hop on hop off experience! The live guides we had were all knowledgeable and entertaining. No recordings were used which gives a personal touch to the tour. Jeff was a great booking representative to work with and Jerry was one of our favorite guides.

Get a ticket to the Jerry "hop on stay on" experience - Hop on hop off bus is a great way to experience any city. Usually we do "hop on" and "off" a few times on the route, but our tour guide/driver Jerry gave us such an incredible tour that we didn't want to hop off the bus and risk missing the rest of the show. Great information about dublin, (great recital of Pierce poetry), nice route and alot of great laughs (we did appreciate the jokes Jerry!). Probably Jerry is one of a kind, try to get on his bus! And to big bus dublin, try to get more Jerrys! He really showed us a good time and the value of having a live tour guide. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Gerry on top - It was a great experience and Gerry really made it fun. He told all about Dublin in a fun way. From "ancient" Dublin to modern Dublin. we were on another bus for a short while with a pre recorded guide which was way less fun. So Gerry keep being a cheeky tour guide it made it great
