Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 43 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the staff for their knowledge, humor, and engaging personalities, making the tours enjoyable and informative. Many highlight the drivers and guides for bringing history to life with stories, jokes, and even songs, creating a memorable and personal experience. People also appreciate the convenience of the tour for seeing the city's main sights and the cleanliness of the buses. However, some people were dissatisfied with the service, citing long wait times for buses, which occasionally led to missed stops or walking to destinations. A few other people also felt that the pre-recorded audio was sometimes impersonal, and some encountered drivers who were perceived as rude or who did not allow them to disembark at their desired stops.

An excellent and extensive tour of…

An excellent and extensive tour of Dublin with knowledgeable (and amusing and musical) drivers. I wish we had done this on our first day as an orientation experience as I now know we missed several interesting parts of the city. We also didn’t have time to do the docklands tour which was included in the ticket. Excellent value!

GREAT WAY TO SEE DUBLIN

Covered a lot of Dublin and comfortable ride. Still better than walking around. It is a busy city and much would not be seen there without this tour.

Do Dublin great!

We had paid for the Do Dublin hop on hop off bus tour. What we got was brilliant we started early (driver Paul) was really good, knowledgeable, funny and a good driver around the busy streets. We completed the full trip to learn what-stops we wanted to get off later to investigate and visit. We had two other drivers on our later trips. Really a good way to see the sites of Dublin. Highly recommend!

You must do DoDublin

Today I decided to grab a 12 hour ticket so I could hop on and off of the bus.
That however didn’t happen because I sat on it for the whole route.
And the reason I stayed on the bus was the driver. I found out his name was Ritchie. He was witty, amusing, sang with a pretty good voice and an all round good guy. At one point he even waited at a stop to make sure a woman without a ticket was able to get into the Guinness museum. That’s going way above and beyond.
I would recommend this company and would recommend you make this what you do on day one. Then you can ground visiting the places do discovered on the trip 😀😀

Great way to break from walking the city

Decided later in the day to take this tour. We initially struggled with finding the correct stop, so moved to the next. We almost missed it, but the driver noticed us, waved us down to the spot, and waited for us. The tour guide, whom unfortunately I don't know his name as he kept changing it, was absolutely amazing. He kept the tour engaging. He made the tour absolutely worth it, just him.
It was a great way to get a quick highlight of the city. The tour guy was hilarious and gave a entertaining overcoat to the tour. He really made it enjoyable. We actually just stayed on the tour all the way as we ended up starting late and I wish we had started earlier. It was also nice because part of the bus was covered and despite them reporting no chance of rain, it still rained. Good Irish lesson. The tour guide was so good, that my 72 year old father kept bringing it up and comparing it with every other tour/ thing we did. He really thought he added to the tour being great and better than our other guides. I would absolutely recommend this tour, especially with this guide.

Excellent service!

What a great, informative tour, buses every 20 minutes, we barely had to wait anywhere. The drivers were brilliant, they told many funny anecdotes and a special shout out to Wayne who went out of his way to be helpful. Highly recommend

Fabulous touring Dublin on the hop on…

Fabulous touring Dublin on the hop on hop off buses. Our son and his partner (age 29) were dubious. But having been to other cities and used hop ons, we said he would enjoy it. We all thought it was a great way to see the city. Wayne and the other drivers were knowledgeable and entertaining. Helpful about which stops to get off at, and where to get connections to the other route.
