Testimonials
We took a walking tour of Dublin with Ciaran of Unearthed Tours. This tour was the best tour we’ve taken. Ciaran is a born storyteller. He shared the history of Ireland and Dublin in an interesting way. We visited many sites in Dublin that we would not have seen on our own or known the significance of these sites. We highly recommend a tour with Unearthed Tours. Thank you Ciaran for a wonderful tour of Dublin.

Tara was a wonderful guide: full of insider knowledge but shared in an informal, engaging & energetic way. We learned loads about the history of Dublin as well as great tips for our trip. Hugely recommended, especially at the start of your stay in Dublin

Very interesting and fun tour about the darker side of Ireland’s history. Our guide John was amazing – he added some good old Irish humour and had great story telling skills.
