This was a really cool experience. John was an excellent guide. Communication was great. It was nice to get an insider's perspective on the drive over to the tours. John was able to provide a nice dialog and history of Dublin and Whiskey in general. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Absolutely superb

John made this tour absolutely brilliantly and was able to provide us with alot of history on Irish whiskey. It was very personal and he provided transport to and from the locations on the tour. Really lovely person and choose Jameson and Teeling distilleries as the main attractions which are 2 excellent venues and tours at ech were superb. We enjoyed every minute of it at it was 5 hours long. We tasted a fair few whiskeys over the course of the 5 mins plus had the opportunity to buy more at each location we visited. So make sure you have a fully stomach when doing this tour. Highly recommended to anyone with an interest in whiskey whether your Irish or from abroad. It's well worth the money and day out. Left extremely happy and learned alot I didn't know about whiskey. I will definitely be booking another tour and no doubt itll be just as good if not better.
