There are two hop on hop off tours in Dublin, and there are other tours available as well, but I highly recommended this tour to other tourists while I was there, and would recommend it to anyone. Well done.

Suggestion - place additional buses at high traffic pick up points, ie Guinness.

The bus brings you everywhere you need to go. Try to catch the bus with the live commentary. The bus stops at 500pm which is too bad.

Good orientation tour on the first day in Dublin.

We had an absolutely excellent break and certainly hope to repeat it.

A very good way to see the sights of Dublin if you only have a short amount of time. The commentary also provides a lot of information that you would not get doing it all on your own.

Very informative. We had a bus with a live guide as opposed to an audio track and he was funny and knowledgeable.

The tour was wonderful. There are several different buses with the Dublin city tour, each with different things to say about all the highlights of Dublin. All were interesting. The only thing is be sure you get on the Dublin city tour bus. Some are red and some are yellow and they say city tour. There is another yellow bus tour which is a different tour so you need to watch what bus you board. We sat on top of the double decker bus in the open and believe it or not I came back to the states with a nice tan from Ireland!

One guide was amazing, the rest were ok may have enjoyed walking the city better.

I'm not one to ever complain but my daughter and I had a bad experience towards the end of our day in Dublin. We had used the on/off bus throughout the day and were aware that the buses ran until 530pm. We were on an NCL cruise and had to be back at the ship at the same time. We were at stop 20 at around 445 planning to get on and ride to the end of the route in time to meet our taxi back to the ship. We waited 15 minutes and finally saw the big red bus coming, the driver looked right at us and shook his head no. He then stopped at the red light just past us so we ran up to the bus and waved at him to let us on. He again gestured no and drove off. We ended up walking, getting lost and feeling very panicked but finally found our taxi and barely made it back to the ship on time. I now understand that stop 20 was the end of the route but I do not understand how a driver could pass us up so blatantly.

Ends earlier than other tour companies. All go to the same attractions, but a tour that ends later comes in handy when you want to hit the last tour at Guinness or another attraction then get back to your hotel or into town.

Everything was as advertised. It would have been better if there was a live guide doing commentary and not a recording.

I've been on better city sightseeing tours but this was ok. The bus didn't stop at all of the stops and at one point we had to get off and walk to the next stop but in terms of learning about Dublin's history it was definitely good.
