Ireland has long been a land of storytellers, with a rich oral tradition that stretches back centuries. From ancient legends to modern-day tales, storytelling remains at the heart of Irish culture. On this tour, we’ll explore the fascinating world of the Four Cycles of Irish mythology, uncover the mysteries of the fairies — and why they should never be disturbed — and finish with some contemporary stories inspired by the colourful characters of Dublin city.
And where better to hear Irish stories than in the pub? This tour takes place across three traditional pubs, where at each stop you’ll enjoy a glass of local beer or cider along with classic pub snacks. As you relax, your guide will regale you with the tales, humour, and charm that have made Ireland famous for the gift of the gab!
