An Unforgettable Food Tour with an Amazing Guide!
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Walking Food Tours in Dublin! Our guide was fantastic — friendly, knowledgeable, engaging and clearly passionate about Dublin and its food culture. He made the entire tour fun, interesting and truly memorable. The food was delicious, and we loved discovering the city through its local flavours and stories. Our guide really made the experience special with his warm personality, enthusiasm, and knowledge. Towards the end of the tour, he took out his guitar and sang two songs for us, which was such a lovely and unexpected touch. It made an already fantastic experience even more memorable and was a perfect way to round off the tour. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Dublin who wants to discover the city in a fun, authentic and memorable way! 🇮🇪🎸

Awesome tour with delicious food!
This tour was fantastic! What a fascinating & delicious peek into a historical part of Dublin that doesn't really make the guidebooks. We heard so many great stories, visited pubs & businesses we might have missed otherwise, and shared many laughs. Oh man that grilled cheese!!! Highly remmend this tour!

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.
How much does Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $31 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dublin usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dublin is not rushed.
Is Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 587 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide?
+
Around 205 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dublin can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dublin and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Food on Foot: Dublin Street Food Tour with Local Guide start and how do I get there?
+

The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dublin?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dublin?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
