This tour is totally original and thoroughly entertaining. The tour guide brimmed over with energy and enthusiasm, but he spoke very, very fast and with a very strong (and charming) Irish accent. For native English speakers, it is an absolute riot, but for my French compagnons, they didn't understand anything. Nevertheless, this is a great and fun way to see... More

went with captain Pat, we laughed all the way round. best thing in Dublin.he made the experience so fantastic, we all had to be Vikings and growl at the rugby fans as we went past them for the heiniken final. His stories were so fanciful and hilarious. What a character. Hopefully his colleagues are as funny Also very impressed by... More

We (three of us...an Australian, an American and and Irish lass.....sounds like the beginning of a joke) had a rainy day, but it made little difference, we still learnt how to do our roars. The guide/driver/teacher of the roars was really personable, great sense of humour and knowledgable about all things Irish. We went on a different path to the... More

The guide was marvelous, very entertaining. The history that was provided to us was great, but I found the actual 'splash' part of the tour (a boat ride on the Liffey) a little underwhelming. It's worth taking the time to go on the tour just for the history and stories though. Plus you get to wear little Viking hats.

This is a great way to spend 1.5 hours. Also get to see most of the special places of interest in Dublin. Good fun roaring at people on the footpath. Guides are great fun also. Well worth the spend. This bus tour is a bit different, the vehicle goes into the water also.

Overall an interesting road tour of Dublin, a little let down that the water side was in the lock, rather than down the Liffey as was expected and was just 15 minutes in a circle around mainly new buildings. However the tour guide was great, knew everything, was able to answer all our questions and really made the tour what... More

Loved everything about this, we entered into the spirit by wearing Viking helmets and shouting at passersby, our driver was excellent at bringing the tour to life, definitely a must

Did the Viking Splash Tour on Sunday April 28th. Anto our driver and guide was hilarious but knowledgable so we learned a lot about the history of Dublin City. It was great fun doing the " Viking Roar " at the unsuspecting "cappuccino celts", "competition celts" and "lost celts" on the streets. I would certainly recommend this tour. Any age... More

Excellent tour with a difference. Anton the Viking (driver and captain) had us in absolute stitches with laughter throughout the tour, but we also learned about historic Dublin. Thoroughly recommend.........
