Hi! My name is Marina and I’m a 25-year-old Dublin native ready to show you my beautiful hometown! Together we’ll complete a half-day tour of captivating coastal Dublin, venturing beyond the city centre and into seaside villages full of antique charm and hidden gems. We’ll hear historical insights and modern-day recommendations as we explore like locals. The tour starts in beautiful Dun Laoghaire and its surrounding areas of castles, harbors, museums and more, before finishing in one of Ireland's most charming villages where you can enjoy a meal at your own pace. This tour is a perfect shore excursion or a break from the busy city! Please note that this is a walking tour and we walk in Irish weather so a raincoat is recommended! Feel free to reach out if you require further information or for private tour/group rates. Looking forward to meeting you! :)

Marina is intelligent, entertaining and has a well planned itinerary down pat with worthwhile commentary and information. I highly recommend this tour with her. It takes about 10,000 steps to go the distance. But the pace was very doable and we had a wonderful morning/afternoon with her.

This tour was a lot more than what I was expecting. We walked between 3 1/2 and 4 miles, leaving the port of dun Laoghaire and proceeding to hear all sorts of interesting things not only about this town, but we walked to two neighboring towns. We got to see the swimming holes in the sea, James Joyce tower, castles, parks, and all sorts of interesting landmarks here and there. Marina was very articulate, very open to questions, and even had a stop where we could enjoy what she calls the best ice cream in Ireland! Be advised that this is a 2 1/2 hour walk and you will be climbing stairs, walking up and down the hill over cobblestones so it is not what I would call an easy walk. We had some folks that were a little older on our tour, and they struggled a bit with the length and intensity. It is an excellent exercise walk, and we loved it! Once the tour is over, she does help you buy a train ticket which cost to €2.60 for each person. The train arrives every 10 minutes and it takes about seven minutes to get right back to the port where you are near your cruise ship. If you have a later departure time, try to plan to stay in the last town, which is Dahlke and famous people live here, like Bono and Pierce Brosnan. There were some amazing looking restaurants, but we simply didn’t feel we had the time to stay, since our ship was departing early. An amazing bonuses that we were blessed with a beautiful, sunny day!

We took Marina’s walk today and it was great! She is knowledgable, personable and full of interesting facts and stories of the area. The walk is flat but somewhat fast paced [with several short stops] and flat. We covered around 4 miles and walked through 4 villages. A great way to experience Dublin’s adjacent commuter communities if you don’t want to spend the day in Dublín.
