Washington DC
LetzGo City Tours operates across multiple cities, but their Dublin experiences really shine through in recent feedback. Guides like Emmet, Miriam, and Fergus get enthusiastic shoutouts for bringing local knowledge and personality to their tours. Emmet in particular seems to be a Dublin native who weaves the city's whiskey and beer heritage into broader historical context with humor and ease. The combined Jameson and Guinness tours are popular options, with guides adapting well to different group dynamics and pacing walks comfortably. There was one frustrating experience with a bus tour where pickups never materialized, which is worth noting if you're booking transportation-dependent experiences. Otherwise, the consensus is overwhelmingly positive. Travelers appreciate guides who balance facts with storytelling and keep things engaging rather than lecture-heavy. The personable approach seems to be a company strength, whether you're exploring Dublin's literary landmarks or Paris neighborhoods with guides like Nina.
Exceptional tour! Our tour covered the Guinness family but we learned so much more. Emmet was very knowledgable about Dublin, Ireland and the impact the Guinness family had one each. He dispelled many false narratives driven on the Netflix show. He was also very kind and accommodating to each person on the tour.
