Hi .We are very sorry that your experience was not a happy one. Can you let me know where and at what time you were waiting ? On Saturday we augmented the 30minute service with extra buses so the service operated was better than advertised. If you send an email to info@dodublin.ie with the details and we we will investigate the issue.

Robert_B
, May 2022
Bought the tour online. Had the code/purchase information on my phone. They wouldn't accept it on the bus that I waited for an hour in very cold weather. I had to walk about 1 mile to find a shop that would help. I spent about 2.5 hours of my vacation day in Dublin trying to fix what turns out to be the problem with the scanner on the bus. Our bus driver was very fun.... not alot of information about the history of the town....but once we were on the bus was okay. Very crowded with lots of people talking. Sorry but not a great experience.

Great bus tour.
Sandra_M
, May 2022
It goes to several interesting places. Seeing the Phoenix park was beautiful. Did not expect it to be so big! One of the buses took us further thru the park ( I think it was the green bus) the other one (Red bus) did not go as far into park. We saw they had bicycle rentals for people who like to ride. The bus stops at the zoo in the park that is only stop they make in park. Stops by the Guinness brewery, and other Distilleries. Also stops at St Patricks Cathedral and too many other places to list.

The Drivers, the cheesy jokes, the sing alongs and their knowledge…. they brought the experience to life so much more than trying to navigate the beauty and history of Dublin by ourselves with written guides. Recorded commentary was great too.

I could not figure out where to get on and off the bus. A map is not readily available online. I tried 3 times in 2 locations at Trinity to get one a bus. It is not apparent how frequently the buses come. Buses drove right by the place where the green sign was for the bus. I did not even get to use my ticket.

we have an online map https://dodublin.ie/hoho-bus-route-map . our brochure and online advertises that the buses are running every 30 minutes. There is a tourist office at the bus stop at Trinity College that sells tickets and they could have advised about the times and which stop was correct. this is not the experience that we wish you to have in our City on our tours. Please contact us when you return again and we will look after you.

The park the zoo is in....it's no wonder that the old druids believed in magic and that it was deeply connected to the earth. It certainly enchanted me. I only regret I couldn't make it out there as I walked so much after my feet feel ready to fall off. But I am certainly going for the day before I leave. Even if I have to do so on stumps.

Great …. But….
Laurent_G
, Apr 2022
It’s certainly a great way to discover Dublin and to have an idea of what is to be seen. BUT, when you don’t’ understand Irish accent and there is no way you can listen to the comment in other languages, it’s quite frustrating. In the first bus, music added to the voice of the driver made it difficult to understand ( and the music was very nice) . The second driver talked very fast. And the comments in other languages were apparently out of order. I couldn’t understand anything. That’s a shame, because I would have rated this way of discovering Dublin to a maximum 5 stars.
