February 2025 - Absolutely amazing service. We have just come to the end of our Dublin trip. The first time we have visited from the UK & we booked the 48hour hop on hop off bus tour, this also included a free night time tour of Dublin. We had 2 drivers on our trip, James & Jerry. Both were absolutely amazing. Funny, knowledgeable, interactive, friendly faces. Honestly made our trip so much better, even to the point we would come again & book the bus tour again! We just wanted to say thank you to James & Jerry for making our trip amazing and so memorable! We learnt so much from the tour guides about Dublin and the history behind it. Amazing. Thank you Big Bus- James and Jerry (Dublin)

Live tour with Ross - We were lucky enough to have a live tour with Ross, absolutely amazing, so knowledgeable about the history et...but also enjoyable and so funny, w We had originally planned on getting off at stop 8 as we wanted to visit Dawsons Lounge but ended up doing the whole tour. Thank you Ross, you sir, are a legend!

Great experience!! - Travelled to Dublin with family for 1st time from 17th to 19th of Jan '25. Booked and completed all 3 tours with 'BigBusTour'. Best decision we've made. The lady & gentlemen, who initially helped us book our Dublin city tour, night tour and coastal tour were great 👍 Gerry the tour guide was fantastic! He was funny and entertaining. Made the experience for all of us memorable on 3 separate tours that we had him. Thank you to all the staff for a great experience! Definitely would recommend to go with BigBusTour to anyone who is going to the city for the 1st time or wants to learn the history of the city.

Best tour guide ever! - This was a very good tour. The guide, Jerry, was awesome - plenty of good information and a great sense of humour. The route taken was ideal and the bus was modern and clean.

City and coastal tour - We did both the city tour and coastal your with Big Bus and would highly recommend both. Our coastal tour with Gerry was a real highlight of our trip to Dublin, he was such an entertaining and knowledgable guide!

Girls weekend in Ireland - We bought the tour intending to hop on and hop off regularly to see all the sights, but honestly Gerry (hope I got the name right) had us laughing our heads off the whole way and we could not bring ourselves to get off until the end! We did the tour again the next morning to stop and see all the sights, but it was a completely different experience with a pre-recorded voice over, so glad we did the full tour with Gerry the day before! We also did the night bus tour which was cool too!

2 day pass + night tour - We hopped on and off a couple of times over 2 days, plus did the combined night tour. We thoroughly enjoyed the rides. The live guides all gave similar, good information, but have to say our favourite was Ross. His delivery was exceptional, with added humour and being interactive with passengers. All of the well known tourist places had bus stops. We bought a combination ticket with a Guinness Storehouse visit, which the helpful ticket sales person timed perfectly for us with the next bus departure.

Gerry/jerrry ? And Ross absolute awesome fellas - We picked this great company as I ticked all the boxes we were looking for, on our first tour around the town we had a well clever fella ( Ross ) what a fantastic wealth of knowledge this guy had, its obvious he has a passion for Dublin. Yesterday we were treated to the awesome driving skills and vast array of knowledge on our afternoon trip to Howth ~ amazing afternoon and the weather was very kind for us all to, yet again today we were spoiled with the company of your star driver Jerry or Gerry ????? This guy is an absolute awesome fella and we throughly enjoyed his knowledge and banter~certainly made both of our trips more pleasurable. , Devon fruitcakes
