Two thumbs up, 5 stars, a perfect 10, whatever scoring system you use, Emily's "Dublin like a Local" walking tour will pass with flying colors. With her, I learned things I never would have known otherwise like what the diving bell was used for, and discovered shops I might have missed like Sweney's Pharmacy complete with Joyce's lemon-scented soap. From restaurants and shops to quirky sites and Dublin's most beautiful ceilings, Emily effortlessly weaved her way though the city and gave me tips and recommendations for the rest of my stay. She showed me the Heart of the city, and I couldn't help but fall in love. The best part, though, is that it does not feel like a "tour". With Emily, I felt like I was going for a walk with a friend. In case you couldn't tell, I HIGHLY recommend Emily's walking tour.
I had a wonderful time taking Jackie and her brother Mark on a tour of Dublin. They were such a joy to spend three hours chatting with! Come back soon!
