More like excellent! Great tour, great guide, great guy!! - John is great to work and deal with. I chose this tour for me and my buddy to go check out Guinness and Jameson in Dublin. Right from out initial contact, John was friendly and accommodating. When our cruise ship changed disembarkation times, John adjusted the time and tour to help us be able to still enjoy the tour. For just a few more euros, we got a private tour and not a bus of 40 or so dumping us at Guinness on our own. He even drove our wives from our Princess Cruise ship to town and we headed to Guinness. While driving he took us on a city tour and showed and explained a lot about Dublin. When at Guinness, he took us on a personal tour, explaining the Guinness process and all kinds of tidbits. When we went to the top to drink our Guinness, John went and got them and we avoided the crowded bars. We then headed to Jameson, with more of the city your. At Jameson, John explained some things to us about Jameson, since he had worked there in the past, and showed us around before our tour there. After the tour, John went out of his way to pick up our wives and explained more about Dublin then dropped us off at our ship, the Regal Princess. John was a total delight, answered all our questions and made it an extremely enjoyable tour. You won’t go wrong in hiring him!!

Private Guinness and Jameson tour – the only way! - This was excellent. As soon as we saw all those people on a self-guided tour around Guinness Storehouse , and we on a private tour with John, we knew booked the right tour! It’s not rushed, we had lots of time to do all that we wanted, and John booked us a nice table for lunch and dropped us there at the end. Highly recommend.

Guinness and Jameson - start of a great vacation - Jack and Martin (driver) did a fantastic job of city information and history on our way to two of the most known icons in Dublin. Guinness was fabulous and walked us through the highlights, strategically avoiding crowds!🥰 Jameson was a wonderful experience and made an Irish whiskey drinker out of my sister! WOW!

John was a great guide!!!... - John was a great guide!!! He was very knowledgeable of Dublin and the attractions we visited. He made our visit incredible. We are recommending him to all of our friends!

Trusted, Reliable, and Personal Care at its Best - John was absolutely fantastic! Very knowledgeable, kind, funny, and informative! It was a living history lesson about both Dublin and the tour experiences (Guinness & Jameson). Private tours are the way to go. John picked us up at our hotel and saw to our transportation and extra special, personalized treatment throughout the day. John even cared for our shopping and delivered it to our hotel concierge for pickup later. I highly recommend this private tour to any beer and whiskey lover looking for that little extra care only John can provide!

VIP Whiskey & Guinness Adventure: A Dublin Dream Day with Whiskey Island - Our Dublin Private Guinness and Jameson Whiskey Tour with Transfers was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we received a friendly text from our guide, John Callely (Junior), the day before the tour, we knew we were in good hands. John’s punctual arrival at our hotel in a sleek, luxurious car set the tone for a seamless day of exploration. First stop: Guinness! With VIP access through a backdoor entrance, we bypassed all the crowds and lines. John’s knowledge and passion for Dublin’s heritage shone through in every fascinating story and detail he shared. The tour felt tailored just for us, like a stroll through history with an old friend. He even offered to take our photo and was incredibly patient as we lingered over the parts that captivated us most. After soaking up the panoramic views and savoring a freshly poured Guinness, John whisked us off to Jameson, where we enjoyed yet another seamless experience. Skipping lines, he accompanied us right up to our tasting experience, giving us space to immerse ourselves in the presentation of four whiskeys. We reconvened afterward for some souvenir shopping, with John offering expert advice on where to find the best keepsakes. And the service didn’t stop there! Instead of just dropping us at the hotel, he took our newly acquired treasures back for us while we enjoyed lunch nearby at one of his favorite spots. He even arranged to have our items safely placed in our room. It was as if he was not only our guide but also our personal concierge, making us feel entirely taken care of. John’s warm personality and effortless conversation made the entire tour feel like a morning with an old friend, sharing laughter and insights along the way. This tour was worth every penny and more—an experience so smooth and enjoyable that it’s a must-do for anyone visiting Dublin. We’d book another tour with John in a heartbeat and can’t wait to recommend this gem of a tour to all our friends!

Excellent - You must book this tour! It was the most amazing, genuine and authentic tour our family has ever booked, and all we ever book are private tours. John was very personable, knowledgeable and went above and beyond for our tour. This is the only tour operator I would ever book with when returning back to Dublin, the money spent was very well worth it.
