About this experience
On this self-guided audio tour, you'll meet the colourful characters and underdogs that shaped Dublin's medieval core. The Liberties has been home to some of the most important people and events in Irish history, yet the centuries-old neighbourhood often gets overlooked by visitors. On this walking tour, Jack Redmond, a Dublin-born tour guide, will show you the city’s medieval heart and share stories about its tight-knit community. Start your journey towards the Obelisk Fountain, where Dublin's rich history will unfold before you. Explore the city's medieval ruins and the historic Coombe, once bustling with Huguenot weavers. Encounter sites of Irish rebel history and colourful characters like Johnny 40 Coats. Pause in Peace Park, atop a medieval graveyard, before delving into Dublin's whiskey origins and Arthur Guinness's remarkable brewery lease. Pass by Marsh's Library, Ireland's oldest, guarding its treasures with reading cages against thievery.

Cool visit but very commercialized
Cool to visit such an iconic brewery, but very over the top with how it was done. Disney-esque like. VERY crowded. Would’ve liked being able to see the actual manufacturing facility. Nice views of the city from the bar at the top.

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.
How much does Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys cost?
+
Prices start at $12 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 Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys take?
+
Plan for about 0.8 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 Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 1 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 Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys?
+
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 Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys?
+
Around 0 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 0.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Self Guided Tour of Dublin’s Breweries and Back Alleys 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 Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway, Dublin Highlights and Hidden Gems Guided Walking Tour, The Little Museum of Dublin Famous Guided Tour. 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.
