Had a fantastic experience with John D. driving the bus. Incredibly informative and engaging, and very funny too. I had hoped the driver would be the same when we got back on the bus after our tour of... See more

The Coastal Tour is a definitive recommendation! Especially the walk alongside the coast is beautiful and spectacular. The seats in the buses are umcomfortable though - that’s a bit of a drawback.
So normally these tours are a nice way to just sit and get a general knowledge of the area, but this tour was awesome! Our drivers and guides were Tanya and Freo, and they sang us traditional irish so... See more
The bus trip was great. The buses were clean and ride comfortable. The drivers’ commentaries made all the difference. Best commentary was given by Kieron. Very informative, musical and amusing! Well d... See more

A disgrace.
Alan was an amazing driver.
Me and my partner went on the coastal tour from Dublin to Howth, our driver Alan was amazing.
We learnt a lot about Dublin and Howth, which was so beautiful.
The views where spectacular.
Our day was a beautiful sunny one with laughter and good people.
We had a lovely chat with Alan who advised us of lots of places to see.
I would recommend to anyone who visits this beautiful land.
Thank you Alan for that wonderful memory.
Great bus tour on an icy November…
Great bus tour on an icy November afternoon, made special by the friendly & informative tour guide Brian
James is an excellent tour guide
James was an excellent tour guide. My partner and I were lucky enough to enjoy a private bus tour for 25 stops! James was very professional and fun. I can only recommend his service
Thank you James

Wow our trip with the big bus was…
Wow our trip with the big bus was brilliant.
Our driver James was brilliant and very knowledgable and was fantastic with little jokes here and there definitely doing it again off to the Guinness storehouse this afternoon.
We are going on the night trip too.
What a fantastic way of seeing Dublin very highly recommended.
Poor driver makes or breaks a bus tour…
Poor driver makes or breaks a bus tour like this. Sadly we had Micheal who constantly referred to his whiskey in his coffee, how over priced the tickets were that we had paid for ( they are very poor value at 35euros each)
To make matters worse the bus broke down 1/2 around and when feedback was given to Micheal that his talk should be more about Dublin and its history then his jokes on ridiculous price we paid and his Irish coffee he got very upset started swearing at me in very colourful language. Absolutely not a professional. Do any of the number of walking tours they are far better value and much more enjoyable
POOR SPANISH AUDIO
I’m spanish. I bought 2 tickets with audio in spanish on Augost 11. There were a guide in live who speaked english. Our audio spended the most time with music. The information was minimum, even when we pass next the Guiness we don’t have any information and the same in a lot of stops. We paid 64 euros like english people. I think the company must to improve that. Thank you.
Nice experience with a kind tour guide
Thanks James the driver
Had a fantastic tour thanks to James the driver. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the history was a joy, all delivered with humour and a friendly attitude
Great trip to the coast and Howth

Our bus driver and guide Jerry was…
Our bus driver and guide Jerry was brilliant ! Give this guy a raise , great information , very knowledgeable and personable ; passionate and so proud of Irish history . Really inspirational human being . Highly recommend this tour : if you get Jerry as your guide : double the fun , what a legend! .
Great Service
Great Service. Slight misunderstanding regarding the "buy one day get one free during April" but this was sorted professionally. Informative journey by both drivers.
Ross - great tour guide
A huge shout out to Ross - absolutely amazing tour guide! We didn't want to get off but he had a lunch break so we had too! A really good interactive experience, spoke with everyone, everyone made to feel welcome and part of the tour rather than being 'on the tour'! Thank you - from the little redhead Willow 🧡
Big Shout out to Jerry!
We were lucky to have our bus tour with Jerry. His live commentary made it the most enjoyable bus drive we have ever experienced. We initally planned to hop off the bus at one time but we ended up doing the whole tour just because we didn‘t wanted to miss out.
Big Shout out to Jerry!
Informative and entertaining
I used BigBus twice today in Dublin. And both times I was lucky enough to be travelling with Jimmy as my driver. Super informative, very entertaining and friendly. It was great fun. Thank you :-)
James the driver
Really enjoyed the tour provided to us today by the excellent James. The tour really enabled us to appreciate the architecture and history, in a way that wouldn’t have been achieved on foot. James has a brilliant knowledge and delivery of the historical sights, with a wonderful blend of humour and friendliness. Would definitely recommend 10/10.
BigBus & Gerry made our day :-)
Gerry, our BigBus driver, made our tour instructive about Dublin but especially he made it pleasant and funny. It was a great time we spend thanks to him!
Fine experience :)
Great Guide of Dublin.
We went for a tour with Big Bus Tours Dublin and we were totally entertained by our awesome Bus driver/Guide who was very knowledgeable by all the things in Dublin. He certainly did give us a great commentary and we had some great laughs. Very clever and engaging with all persons on board. Absolutely loved this Tour and we would highly recommend it and especially if you get this guy. I just wish I could remember his name? A for Amazing.
