Lovely nighttime bus tour with Jerry - Wonderful nighttime bus ride with Jerry, our guide. Great narration and recommendations. Got some lovely photos through the clear windows on the top deck. My 22 month old son enjoyed the ride so much he fell asleep and allowed us to grab dessert afterwards!

Very informative and fun... - Very informative and fun way to learn about Dublin. We enjoyed seeing the city lit up at night. The pick up and drop off location was very convenient. After the tour our guide recommended a fantastic dinner spot nearby as well.

Did the knowledge with James - We travelled with James the driver who was friendly and informative and obviously loves his home city. We found out pearls about the places we have walked over the last few days, it was quite chilly upstairs on the open deck but February tends not to balmy.

Great night time tour! Thanks Robbie - Robbie was a great Tour Guide. Me and my Friends visited from Scotland and I would definitely recommend the night time tour! Robbie was very knowledgeable and loves to crack a joke. Definitely worth the money and I’d do the tour again!

Superb tour at night - Beautiful views of Dublin at night, lots of lights to see on various buildings and bridges. Tour guide Alan was fantastic, even though there was only a few of us on board, He was very informative, he kept us entertained and laughing. I can imagine the tour at Christmas and will definitely be doing it again in December. Thanks Alan for a great evening.

Really to do, even if you know the city or you have taken the day bus - Really to do! If it's Paul I did the hop on hop off tours in several countries and I had already done the Dublin one by day, and frankly this one, by night was great. Already, the circuit is not the same part of the way (the last half is but at the same time you want to see the historic buildings at night), we see more the headquarters of the big groups of banks, buildings with superb lighting... but especially the live comments of Paul are much less formal than those of the day, it is real life, as if a local walks us and tells us what an Irishman, even a Dubliner would do. It was rhythmic and it passed quickly (50min 1h) with our 5 year old son. Besides, we could take pictures quietly. I have only one regret, not having had change to symbolically thank Paul for the good time he had us (I don’t know how he does everything)

Disappointed due to use of non-open top bus. - Signed up for the "Panoramic" bus tour. Our bus had a full roof on the top floor so we did not actually have a Panoramic view and it was very difficult to see many of the sights that were higher than one floor. Additionally the ceiling lights on the bus were fully on which made it even more difficult to see into the dark night. To add insult to injury we saw two empty panoramic view buses by this company that were available. We wanted this tour because we like the open top experience so were disappointed.

Pass on this one - The blokes sitting in front of us were loud and obnoxious. The views were very poor from the bottom of the bus.
