Windmill Lane Recording Studio tour - Maria was a great guide & her knowledge of the industry was very in depth. Seeing how it’s all done was also eye opening- it’s a real skill & obviously having a great ear for sound is a must. We really enjoyed the whole experience & thank Windmill for opening their doors.

For any music lover - As a music lover, this was a highlight of my Dublin visit. While I was familiar with the studio for their work for U2, I was unaware of some of the other seminal albums that were recorded there. Great behind the scenes tour with a knowledgeable guide. I always wondered about how a sound engineer and recording studio work. I recommend for any music enthusiast.

History of music in your hands - Special, presentation, kindness and delicacy. A perfect mix and display of history and operation delicacies a recording studio. Spectacular sound and elements, mixing table and studios that make you understand the difficulty of the work they do. Worth it.
