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.

Do Dublin tours is absolutely…

Do Dublin tours is absolutely brilliant. It’s perfect for seeing all the sights and learning so much about Dublin. We had a fabulous driver Alan, he was hilarious and so lovely. He gave us so many facts and also many tips for what to do in Dublin! We also had another driver who was brilliant too but I forgot his name…could have been the Guiness sorry! It’s amazing how they can tell you so much about Dublin whilst driving a bus!!!

Fun ride around the city

Great tour of the city on buses with lots of drop off points at really convenient locations with little or no waiting time for the next bus
The drivers are great entertainment in themselves especially Richie who kept us all entertained with his stories and anecdotes

Entertaining & interesting

We travelled on the Hop On & Hop Off plus the docklands tour using the combo airport transfer ticket. We had arrived in the morning and wanted a good overview of the city. Damien (also known as Pat) was our driver and host, his commentary included interesting facts, jokes and songs made the trip worthwhile. We hadn't bought tickets for the Kilmainham Gaol but wanted to visit and we were given a tip to go on their website at 9.15 for last minutes free slots were we were successful😊👍🏼

The Dublin tour was brilliant

The Dublin tour was brilliant. The main tour had a multi lingual taped guide which was good. The docklands leg of the tour was done by the driver who was brilliant; he was so informative and really funny. The timetables were clear, the route maps were clear and it gave a great overview of the city, and a useful guide as to the parts I wanted to spend more time exploring.

Great day touring Dublin

We were able to see so much of Dublin in a day, places we had planned, and places recommended by the drivers. We particularly enjoyed the Little Museum of Dublin, (free to us with our bus ticket), Lennan’s Yard and J.R Mahon’s suggested on the map provided, and enjoyed a complimentary glass of beer at both.
The drivers were all really friendly and helpful but our stand out driver was the girl (sorry didn’t catch her name) who sang Molly Malone. Great Craic!

Highly recommended HOHO bus tour

Good value and convenient way of seeing the main sights in Dublin. Nice and clear commentary and our driver was really funny and definitely made the trip more enjoyable with his stories and singing. We made use of the voucher for a free meal too. Highly recommended!

Amazing!

Our first bus was AMAZING. Damien did a fantastic job driving and guiding us through Dublin City. He was welcoming, funny and had a lot of knowledge. He even did a few extra "stops" to show and tell us about some fun facts. The other guides used the audio guide more often, and that made us think that Damien walked the extra mile. We think everyone should get to experience his guiding. The deals you get along side of the bus tickets was a real bonus for us. Make sure you check them out. We saved at least €30 per person on these deals.

Each time I’ve visited Dublin I’ve used the Green hop on hop off buses. The live tours are always funny and informative. Mark was our driver for the whole tour. Even sang to us lol. Plenty of buses to hoho. Running regularly.
Thanks it was fun!
