*itinerary is only a guide and is tailored for each unique tour, when we meet in person, I'll make sure that we are collaborating together for a bespoke itinerary.

A high quality ChaperoneVIP private tour in Dublin presented by myself Eamonn, a Dubliner born and bred with a 7 passenger limousine licensed minivan with Air-con, plenty of legroom and a microphone or up to 3 guests in a BMW 7 series limo.

This original custom tour is a fun mix of Irish history, traditional Irish music, scenic coastal drive, our famous Dublin pub & whiskey culture, sightseeing photo stops and all while I am taking the very best care of you personally.

As we drive, you'll learn about our brave revolutionaries, Ireland's emigration & the famine, religion, the language, Guinness brewery history & just what’s it’s like to grow up in Ireland.

This tour is designed by me personally to show you what really matters in Dublin and doesn’t overlap with any large bus or walking tour.

See you in Dublin!

Éamonn
