One of the best ways to experience the distinct flavors of Dublin is through its local pubs. These cozy establishments, normally offer a warm atmosphere and delicious comfort food that is perfect for chilly days, are turning into a great summer activity when the sun comes out, with a cold beer just out in the terrace.

We had an amazing time during the Vintage Trip Tours. Our guide was Nicole who was very informative and funny, with great facts about dublin. We also had Ellie, Daniel and of course driver Liam who were an amazing help. I opted out for the gluten free option, the sandwiches and the desserts were delicious. Amazing experience.
