What our guests are saying about our guide team.

We had a lovely day exploring Newgrange and the Hill of Slaine with Noel yesterday. Highly recommend! Noel and Touristy were a pleasure to work with. Especially enjoyed touring the monastery ruins at the Hill of Slain, we had the place all to ourselves."

Blakely Meyers

"Alan Bradley From Touristy Ireland was my tourist guide and taxi driver. Made getting around so much easier to use taxi lanes and parking places. I saw all the highlights and visited so many places in an 8 hour span. Really felt like I got to know and experience Dublin. Alan is extremely knowledgeable about Ireland’s history and the people that formed Ireland. I highly recommend him to be your friendly and knowledgeable Irish Tour Guide!!"
