Dublin Private Guinness and Irish Whiskey Tour with Transfers
Description
A private and fully escorted whiskey and beer tour of Dublin. Your Whiskey & Beer Specialist Host will meet you at your hotel and you depart in executive transport for the Guinness neighbourhood. This is a Dublin city tour with whiskey and Guinness being the main focus, but your Host will also provide a glimpse at Irish life - culture, people, landmarks, history! Your Host will escort you around Guinness Storehouse, enhancing the Guinness experience, so that your time at the city's most visited attraction is best spent. Next, your Host will showcase the booming Irish whiskey scene, during a private visit to a working distillery. This tour is private throughout, with travel in Mercedes. The personalised attention of your Whiskey & Beer Specialist Host is what makes this tour really special and memorable.

Itinerary
Most people visit Guinness Storehouse on a self-guided ticket. With us, you'll enjoy a guided walk through the attraction, with a little bit of history, and a little bit of process. You’ll finish at Gravity Bar for a pint of the Black Stuff.
We bring the Irish whiskey story to life, with a visit to this fully operational whiskey distillery. Enjoy a private visit with your Host followed by a tasting of a small batch blended whiskey, a 12 year old single malt, and very tasty flavoured gin!

We worked with a travel agent to plan our Ireland honeymoon. She booked us with Whiskey Island for our private Guinness and Jameson Whiskey tour and we couldn't have been happier! John was an absolute delight! It was my husband's favorite part of the trip. John was very professional, informative, great with people - he is well-known at Guinness! It was a great experience. We also chatted with him about lunch spots after the tour and he provided a list of recommendations. We did go to one of the restaurants and it was great food! My husband and I both agreed that if we make our way back to Ireland with friends next time, we will be calling John up!

Hi Tina, thank you very much! Really enjoyed the time with your guests, lovely people. Thanks for the booking. Best wishes, John
The tours at Guinness and Jameson were well planned, informative and fun! Enjoyed the samplings and buying at the gift stores. People were friendly. Liked being able to go as fast or slow as we wanted, seeing the exhibitions. Understanding the history of the families and their influence on Ireland was impressive. Liked being picked up and taken back to hotel, made it easy to enjoy our time.

We began with a good orientation, followed by an unhurried walk. The city is fascinating and well worth the time. Our guide knew everything we were interested in and was very cordial. No time pressure. Highly recommended. Well worth the price.
