Dublin, Ireland
About This Activity
A private guide takes you away from Temple Bar's busiest spots into the authentic Dublin pub scene — snugs, traditional music sessions, and pubs that haven't changed in decades. Your guide covers the origins of Irish traditional music and the role pubs play in Irish social life, while you enjoy local pints and pub food at a relaxed pace. Duration is around 2.5 hours and typically costs €60–70 per person with platforms like Withlocals.
