Exceptionally entertaining tour where Dublin steals your heart

Published on May, 2025

John was an exceptional guide. His vast knowledge of history and pop cultural was the perfect blend of informative and humorous. We took the tour the second morning of our time in Dublin and his tour made us fall in the with the city. Prior to this tour, we felt that Dublin was nice, but nothing to write home about. The tour opened our eyes to intricate details, incredible culture, and an astounding history. John helped us feel the heartbeat of Ireland as a whole and Dublin specifically. We had so much fun and would totally recommend this tour to anyone coming into Ireland!

Excellent Tour!

We enjoyed our time with Unearthed Tours on the history of Dublin. Ciaran, who graduated from Trinity College, was very knowledgeable and we learned so much from him. We have a better appreciation of both the current and past histories of the city and country, and we felt he gave a thorough and unbiased review. He is a great teacher.

DO IT AND NOW!

BOOK IMMEDIATELY! I think this is the only review I’ve ever written on TripAdvisor but this tour is worth it. Our guide was Michaél and he was HILARIOUS (ALL CAPS!), knowledgeable, charming, and passionate about murder and torture (appropriately, of course). Honestly it could have continued another hour. The best deal in Dublin. (If you read this Michaél, thank you, and I hope I used the apostrophe over your name correctly!)

Great tour!

We took a shot with the free tour and it was great. Tara was our guide with about 20 in our group. She was very knowledgeable and had great recommendations about dos and dont’s while in Dublin. Very much would recommend the tour.

Amazing overview of Irish history & great tour guide!

Published on Apr, 2025

We loved the Unearthed Tour! It was incredibly informative and our tour guide was the perfect mix of funny, incredibly knowledgeable, and profound. It is quite a walk, so I recommend wearing comfortable shoes, but I also appreciated we stopped along the way for a coffee/break. If you're looking to get a sense of the history of Dublin/Ireland, I highly recommend!
