Dublin’s Distillery Trail - This was the best tour we did in Dublin! It’s well structured, the tastings are all different and the distilleries are all different! We are long term scotch drinkers but not anymore!

Custom whiskey experience - John gave great tours and tastings of the Pearse Lyons and Teeling distilleries. The Roe & Co. distillery had a wonderful cocktail class to go with their tour. A very bespoke experience indeed.

The perfect glimpse at Dublin distilling in 2025 - My Dad is a HUGE whiskey fan and I wanted to treat him to a nice day out sampling whiskey. My plan was to visit the distilleries in Dublin individually , but then I came across Whiskey Island, and read about their half day whiskey tour in Dublin. Not only do they take you to three distilleries, but the visits are all unique. And John knows the neighbourhood so well, there was so much about the Liberties that I never knew or appreciated. We loved it all , a must for whiskey fans.

Best tour in Dublin! - We want to tell you that Karl was amazing. We learned so much today, but also had an amazing time. Robert, the taxi driver, was also a font of stories. This is our 10th day in Ireland, and they were right at the top of our favorite experiences. You can't possibly pay them enough.

Even better than the Scottish whisky tours! - Our tour with John really was a wonderful experience and the different distilleries along with their stories and Irish personalities were a great mix. We thoroughly enjoyed the whole tour, and John organised everything to work so well with the timings
We will definitely pass on good things to friends and colleagues

exceptional tour - We all really enjoyed this Whiskey Tour and think the southern Irish whiskey industry has a great future.In particular John ,our guide had a great relationship with the distilleries especially the smaller ones ,who are trying to do something different to the larger brands.
We also loved to hear all about Southern Ireland and John had a depth of knowledge which was incredible.
I have already suggested to our three children and their partners that we consider a tour as the family next year as they will love it.

Excellent introduction to Dublin's Distillery Trail - This was my first trip to Ireland - my wife wanted to do some shopping, so I went on a private whiskey tour with John (junior) of Whiskey Island Tours & Tastings. John picked me up from my hotel and pointed out many Dublin land markers and provided a great history lesson during our afternoon together with private tours and tastings at three distilleries (Teeling, Dublin Liberties and Pearse Lyons). John was an excellent host and very knowledgeable in the finer points of Irish Whiskey. I had started to get a cold from the travel and rain earlier in the day - The various whiskeys were the perfect cure - especially the Dubliner Honeycomb Liqueur at the Dublin Liberties Distillery.

Five ⭐️ - Five star, white glove service from beginning to end. John was a pleasure to work with. He coordinated our tour well prior to our arrival and ensured that all of our questions were answered. Our group included one whiskey enthusiast and 2 of us along for the ride. We all enjoyed the experience. Gerry our driver picked us up from our hotel and gave us a lively narrative of all the historical landmarks on the way to our first distillery. There Teirnan our guide for the day took over and we visited 3 very unique locations. He was a wealth of knowledge of not only the whiskey but the history of each distillery and Irish whiskey in general. He provided us with the knowledge of how to taste the individual whiskey and to pick out all the individual notes of flavor. He provided a personal touch and it was unique to us. There was no rushing around. We learned and got to witness the actual production in working distilleries. Our teenager got a mocktail or soda at each location and was treated with such kindness. No lines and no rushing… really a fantastic experience and worth every penny. Highly recommend.

What An Amazing Adventure - Hi John,
Now that the dust has settled and we’re back to normal here in the states, I would like to tell you how great our trip was and you did an amazing job with all the places we visited, the accommodations, and especially Des our driver!
Des was so amazing and showed us some great villages and beautiful scenery. He took us to the locals pub for music and pints and was generally just a good person to hang out with.
The distilleries were great and even though they were making the same product they all had a different twist to them. Who knew whiskey could be so diverse!
Thanks again for sharing your amazing country with us!!
Denise and John Russo
