Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 50 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the staff for their helpfulness, humor, and extensive knowledge, making the tours engaging and memorable. The user experience is frequently highlighted as excellent, with many appreciating the clean, well-maintained buses and the entertaining live commentary from drivers. People also found the tour to be a fantastic way to see the city's main attractions without extensive walking, noting the convenience of the stops. However, some reviewers were not happy with the service, experiencing long waits for buses despite advertised shorter intervals and occasional misdirection from associates. A few other people also felt that some drivers were rude or failed to provide the expected live commentary, relying mostly on pre-recorded audio, and in one instance, a driver did not allow passengers to disembark at their desired stop.

Do Dublin great!

We had paid for the Do Dublin hop on hop off bus tour. What we got was brilliant we started early (driver Paul) was really good, knowledgeable, funny and a good driver around the busy streets. We completed the full trip to learn what-stops we wanted to get off later to investigate and visit. We had two other drivers on our later trips. Really a good way to see the sites of Dublin. Highly recommend!

You must do DoDublin

Today I decided to grab a 12 hour ticket so I could hop on and off of the bus.
That however didn’t happen because I sat on it for the whole route.
And the reason I stayed on the bus was the driver. I found out his name was Ritchie. He was witty, amusing, sang with a pretty good voice and an all round good guy. At one point he even waited at a stop to make sure a woman without a ticket was able to get into the Guinness museum. That’s going way above and beyond.
I would recommend this company and would recommend you make this what you do on day one. Then you can ground visiting the places do discovered on the trip 😀😀

Great way to break from walking the city

Decided later in the day to take this tour. We initially struggled with finding the correct stop, so moved to the next. We almost missed it, but the driver noticed us, waved us down to the spot, and waited for us. The tour guide, whom unfortunately I don't know his name as he kept changing it, was absolutely amazing. He kept the tour engaging. He made the tour absolutely worth it, just him.
It was a great way to get a quick highlight of the city. The tour guy was hilarious and gave a entertaining overcoat to the tour. He really made it enjoyable. We actually just stayed on the tour all the way as we ended up starting late and I wish we had started earlier. It was also nice because part of the bus was covered and despite them reporting no chance of rain, it still rained. Good Irish lesson. The tour guide was so good, that my 72 year old father kept bringing it up and comparing it with every other tour/ thing we did. He really thought he added to the tour being great and better than our other guides. I would absolutely recommend this tour, especially with this guide.

Excellent service!

What a great, informative tour, buses every 20 minutes, we barely had to wait anywhere. The drivers were brilliant, they told many funny anecdotes and a special shout out to Wayne who went out of his way to be helpful. Highly recommend

Fabulous touring Dublin on the hop on hop off buses. Our son and his partner (age 29) were dubious. But having been to other cities and used hop ons, we said he would enjoy it. We all thought it was a great way to see the city. Wayne and the other drivers were knowledgeable and entertaining. Helpful about which stops to get off at, and where to get connections to the other route.

Do Dublin tours is absolutely brilliant. It’s perfect for seeing all the sights and learning so much about Dublin. We had a fabulous driver Alan, he was hilarious and so lovely. He gave us so many facts and also many tips for what to do in Dublin! We also had another driver who was brilliant too but I forgot his name…could have been the Guiness sorry! It’s amazing how they can tell you so much about Dublin whilst driving a bus!!!

Fun ride around the city

Great tour of the city on buses with lots of drop off points at really convenient locations with little or no waiting time for the next bus
The drivers are great entertainment in themselves especially Richie who kept us all entertained with his stories and anecdotes

Entertaining & interesting

We travelled on the Hop On & Hop Off plus the docklands tour using the combo airport transfer ticket. We had arrived in the morning and wanted a good overview of the city. Damien (also known as Pat) was our driver and host, his commentary included interesting facts, jokes and songs made the trip worthwhile. We hadn't bought tickets for the Kilmainham Gaol but wanted to visit and we were given a tip to go on their website at 9.15 for last minutes free slots were we were successful😊👍🏼

The Dublin tour was brilliant

The Dublin tour was brilliant. The main tour had a multi lingual taped guide which was good. The docklands leg of the tour was done by the driver who was brilliant; he was so informative and really funny. The timetables were clear, the route maps were clear and it gave a great overview of the city, and a useful guide as to the parts I wanted to spend more time exploring.

Great day touring Dublin

We were able to see so much of Dublin in a day, places we had planned, and places recommended by the drivers. We particularly enjoyed the Little Museum of Dublin, (free to us with our bus ticket), Lennan’s Yard and J.R Mahon’s suggested on the map provided, and enjoyed a complimentary glass of beer at both.
The drivers were all really friendly and helpful but our stand out driver was the girl (sorry didn’t catch her name) who sang Molly Malone. Great Craic!
