Frequently Asked Questions
Grainne leads this private tour, with five curated real food and drink stops.
A well-poured Guinness is traditionally filled about three-quarters full, left to rest, then topped off - that pause lets the nitrogen in the stout settle into its signature smooth, creamy head rather than just a layer of foam. It's the exact technique you'll learn hands-on during the pint-pulling lesson on this tour.
Once your quote is accepted, we'll confirm your exact pickup time, vehicle, and driver details by email ahead of your tour date.

About This Tour
A two-hour private food tour with five curated stops - artisan sweets, award-winning Irish cheeses, fresh seafood, and a whiskey tasting - plus a hands-on Guinness-pouring lesson. Led by guide Grainne, this private walking tour covers five curated stops - artisan sweet treats, award-winning Irish cheeses, fresh seafood, and whiskey tasting - and includes a hands-on chance to learn to pull your own pint of Guinness.
Arthur Guinness signed one of the more unusual leases in Irish history on 31 December 1759: 9,000 years on the four-acre St. James's Gate site, at a fixed rent of just £45 a year. It's the kind of oddity local guides love telling, and it's a fitting opening fact for a tour that ends with you learning to pull your own proper pint.
Guide Grainne's two-hour private walk builds in five curated tastings - artisan sweets, award-winning Irish cheeses, fresh seafood, and a whiskey tasting - alongside that hands-on Guinness-pouring lesson, a skill that genuinely takes practice to get right, since the traditional two-part pour is famous for a reason.
It's a tighter, more focused format than Dublin's longer food-tour options, built around a smaller number of genuinely well-chosen stops rather than a long crawl.
