Interesting and enjoyable
Great tour. Elise was knowledgeable and engaging.
Response from the operator: Knowledgeable and engaging is how you described Elise, and it is good to hear that came through across all three stops. Thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind review, and we hope Dublin treats you well for the rest of your stay.

Learning the history of...
Learning the history of Guinness was astonishing. The activity was a great experience on all seven floors. Our tour guide, Ferguson, was excellent.
Response from the operator: Hello Kathleen, climbing through all seven floors with Ferguson clearly made the story of Guinness come alive for you. He took you from the origins of the brew right up to the pour, and it's wonderful that the history felt astonishing rather than dry. Thank you for choosing LetzGo City Tours for your Dublin visit. Enjoy the rest of your time in Ireland, and slainte!

Guinness and whiskey tour with Noel
Noel Quinn was a great tour guide. Loved the tour and making our own cocktail at the whiskey portion of the tour. Learned a lot thanks to Noel. We recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Thomas, Noel will be glad to hear the cocktail-making at Roe & Co was a highlight. He built the story of Dublin's brewing and whiskey heritage around each stop, so you came away knowing why the places matter as well as how the drinks are made. Thanks for recommending the VIP Guinness Open Gate Brewery and Roe & Co experience. We hope to see you with LetzGo City Tours again soon.

Highly recommend this tour!
Alisa was amazing; friendly and very knowledgeable. We really enjoyed the afternoon.
Response from the operator: An afternoon that moves from the Guinness Storehouse to the Irish Whiskey Experience and then into the Brazen Head, one of Dublin's oldest pubs, should feel like a proper journey through the city, and we're glad it did for you. When you're next planning a trip, we'd love to show you another city.

It was a great...
It was a great experience! Rich did a great job! We learned a lot and had a lot of fun. Highly recommended.
Response from the operator: Jorge, Rich created an atmosphere where learning and laughter moved together through the Guinness Open Gate Brewery and Roe and Co Whiskey experience. That balance, genuine information paired with the kind of energy that makes a group want to stay longer, is what makes these Dublin tours worth your time. We hope you'll be back to explore another corner of the city with us.

Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.
How much does Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head cost?
+
Prices start at $125 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 Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 111 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head?
+
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 Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head?
+
Around 39 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Guinness Storehouse, Irish Whiskey Experience and Brazen Head start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dublin within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dublin?
+
On Outty we rank every Dublin experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dublin to Belfast Titanic Dunluce Castle Giants Causeway Tour, Dublin to Belfast Black Cab: Dunluce Castle and Giant's Causeway, Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway. 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.
