    Sláinte chugat (a toast of Good Health to You, in Irish)
    Highly recommend a visit…..,can’t believe we spent 4 hours in here…and could have stayed longer!!! Great atmosphere on Floor 7 in the Gravity Bar so do enjoy the ambience, atmosphere and the diversity of so many visitors from far and wide enjoying the same experience. We arrived for our 2pm booking, and initially went to Floor 5 where there are a selection of places to enjoy a beverage (including Guinness of course!), and some food (we opted for the pub/bar vibe restaurant and were certainly not disappointed with our sizeable burgers and fries). Then we decided to start from the ground floor and work our way up (self guided tour) at a pace that suited us. The history and information/education on Guinness from roots to present, its processes and people who made it and make it happen was very interesting. We finished off on Floor 7 to get our free pint of Guinness each (i’m ashamed to say i did have mine with blackcurrant and I definitely would drink it that way…for my palate!!). Met so many other tourists from far and wide, and as it was raining heavily outside this bar made the perfect spot to enjoy our Guinness beverages. You will not be disappointed, so book it!

    The best day!!!
    The best decision was to book this tour for our day trip to Dublin! The service was 5/5. We had an amazing time going round the Guinness Storehouse and an even better time being able to go to 3 traditional bars around the city with a group of lovely people we’ve never met! They were all incredible bars and we would never have found them without being apart of the tour! We even got to pour our own pint of Guinness!! Sean our tour guide was the best and full of knowledge, we learnt so much from him! This is something we will 100% book again when coming back with friends/family!!

    The perfect pint(s) & the perfect tour
    The Perfect Pint Tour in Dublin is an enjoyable blend of history, culture, humour, and four excellent pints of Guinness in four distinct pubs. As a Dubliner, I was amazed at how little I knew about these pubs and their stories. Each pub on the tour has its own unique story and historical significance. Keith, our guide, took us on a fascinating journey, sharing captivating anecdotes about each pub’s origins and its role in Dublin’s cultural evolution. It felt like stepping back in time, making the tour about much more than just Guinness. The highlight, of course, is the Guinness, which does not disappoint. Each pub prides itself on serving top-quality Guinness, and you can truly taste the difference. The Perfect Pint Tour is much more than a pub crawl; it’s an immersive journey through Dublin’s history, offering a real flavour of Irish hospitality. Whether you’re visiting Dublin or a local looking to gain a better appreciation for our city and its famous brew, I highly recommend this tour. It provides a deeper understanding of Dublin's history while enjoying some of the best Guinness around.

    Best way to spend the afternoon in Dublin
    What a perfect way to spend New Year’s Eve day. Keith was an amazing guide - very knowledgeable and engaging. He knows EVERYBODY! My favorite part was stepping behind the bar to pour my own pint. And yes, The Gravediggers has the BEST pint of Guinness - and the owners couldn’t be more welcoming.

    Unique and super fun pub tour!
    Had a great time touring a handful of hidden gem pubs in Dublin. Keith was knowledgeable about the bars, history, and process of making and pouring the beer. Our group had a delightful time at the pubs and learning to pour our own pint! I definitely recommend this tour over the more touristy storehouse ones. It’s a really unique experience with a super fun tour guide.

    So Fantastic! Don't miss this chance to hang out with a local.
    We have been in Ireland a week. What an amazing country and culture. The Perfect Pint tour has been the highlight so far. Keith was terrific and it was a blast to hang out with a true Irishman and go to some of the most authentic pubs in Dublin. My wife and I loved the experience and highly recommend it.

    A Definite "Must Do" in Dublin
    Our guide, Keith, was simply amazing and has several years experience in the industry. We learned so many interesting facts not only about Guinness but about the history of pub culture in Ireland. We gained access into a variety of pubs that would not have ben on our radar but allowed us interaction with the locals and the excitement of the pub scene including exclusive "snug" access! The perfect pour at the end was a great experience as well and complimented the entire Storehouse experience. I will definitely be sharing this great tour experience with all my friends and loved ones. A definite "Must Do" when in Dublin! Cheers to Keith and his Crew!

    The Perfect Pint
    The perfect pint tour was such a great afternoon, I couldn't recommend it highly enough. Easily some of the best pints I've had and in pubs I would never have got to. The lads made it entertaining and educational and sampled a few themselves to ensure we were all getting the authentic experience. If you have few days in Dublin and are fond of a pint and even if you are not, then this is a great way to spend an afternoon.

The Perfect Pint Tour is an absolute must do when in Dublin. It’s more than the search for the perfect pint because it dives into the finer details of what it takes to get the beer from the brewery into a pint for your ultimate enjoyment. Things like keg settling time, temperature, type and cleanliness of the glass, pouring techniques, lacing, color, and other details are covered to elevate your knowledge and your overall experience. In addition, it’s also a history lesson in the design, style, and evolution of the existing 700+ pubs within Dublin. We received warms welcomes at the pubs and met some of the owners who greeted us upon arrival. Keith and his team are experts in this field and provide an unbelievable experience like no other. We can’t wait for our next trip to Dublin and will definitely book another tour.

This was one of the most fun and interesting tours we have ever been on. Our guide, Bobby, gave us a thorough introduction to the pouring of the perfect pint before taking us to four unique and entertaining pubs. From the moment we approached the vehicle until he dropped us off at our dinner reservation, we were completely enthralled and engaged. It was the perfect intro to Dublin and Guinness and a great way to spend our first few hours in Ireland.

Couldn't recommend this tour more highly! Even as someone from Dublin, it gives you a sense of being a tourist in your own city - finding out some really interesting Dublin/Irish history insights, all while tasting the finest pints of plain that the city has to offer. Keith was a fantastic tour guide, showing great knowledge and was also able to have a bit of fun with us while doing it. The tour length is ideal and having your own private transfer between the pubs gives a nice VIP feel to the experience. If you want a tour experience that gives you an authentic insight into Dublin and it's historical pubs and their fantastic pints of Guinness, this is the tour for you!

Does exactly what it says on the tin: perfect. pint. tour.

Now, as a lifelong Guinness drinker and frequent visitor to Dublin, I did question the concept of paying for a tour to various pubs in Dublin to drink Guinness.

How wrong I was.

Getting picked up in a lovely and comfortable van to find a bottle of water and pack of Tayto crisps on the seat - perfect start.

Between pub visits (I won't name them as they're all a fun surprise), we were given some great facts and blasted some even better Irish music to ramp up the atmosphere on board.

Each pub was perfect, and places I wouldn't normally go to as they aren't along the same usual strip in Dublin. Each were quirky and traditional in their own right, but most importantly: I can hand on heart say that each served up the creamiest, most perfect pints.

This is how drinking should be done: being driven to great pubs without having to think where to go, and being served guaranteed, brilliant pints without even having to do the ordering.

Lads, see you next time. We had a blast!

Went on this tour on Saturday and would highly recommend. Keith is extremely passionate about Guinness and it shows - we experienced some of the best pints Dublin has to offer at some great and unique pubs around the city. Keith has some great stories and shares his knowledge to explain why this iconic Irish beer has played such an important role in Irish history and culture and become a symbol of Ireland around the world. Excellent small tour and great transport, too

Myself and a group of friends went on the tour yesterday with Keith as our driver and guide. We were taken to 4 authentic Dublin pubs and were told about all the histories of each one and got some of the tastiest pints of the black stuff that Dublin has to offer.
Keith also gave a history of the areas that we passed through on the drive between stops, he was very informative. Im a local Dubliner myself and still managed to learn a few new things.
A highlight for me was The Gravediggers pub which is a very well known drinking establishment in Dublin where we got to drink in there recently reopened snug and meet the owner and have a chat. Was very interesting. Place has so much history.
The tour ended in one of my own favourite city centre pubs The Oval where we all invited to pull our own pints behind the bar, was a nice touch!!
All in all we had a very enjoyable day on the tour!, its a different take on the traditional pubcrawl. This one covers more distance and the pub choices are excellent. Also its clear that Keith and the Perfect Pint team have a passion for Dublin and of course Guinness!!! Cheers guys!!!!!!!

Really enjoyed this. I think we were one of the first groups to take the trip around Dublin but felt like the guys had been doing it for years (they probably have informally!). Good balance of seeing Dublin in a different way and genuine knowledge and insight about what goes into a "perfect" pint. Would recommend for smaller or bigger groups who are interested in a bit of history, some Guinness, and Irish culture!

They do it right. You get a really informative tour, capped off by a Guinness beer that has your picture in the foam. It is a must see experience in Dublin. Not for kids and you can drink at the pub inside all day if you want (Pay after the first pint)
