Según explican ustedes en el bono, el Free Tour es gratuito,pues a nosotros todo el grupo se nos impuso una tarifa de 15 euros por cada uno.. La guía llamada Rebeca nos dijo que ese era su precio y si no que nos fuésemos,que ella nos anulaba la reserva ,sin problema.No sé si es normal aquí en Dublin porque en otros países siempre ha sido a voluntad de la persona.El recorrido nos gustó,las explicaciones también pero nos defraudó el motivo que fuese de esa manera. Somos clientes habituales .

As you explain in the voucher, the Free Tour is free, since the entire group was charged a fee of 15 euros each. The guide, named Rebeca, told us that this was her price and that if we didn't, we could leave. She would cancel the reservation, no problem. I don't know if this is normal here in Dublin, because in other countries it's always been at the discretion of the individual. We liked the tour and the explanations, but we were disappointed, whatever the reason. We are regular customers.

Los guías suelen hacer recomendaciones sobre las aportaciones a realizar, intentando que se alcance el mínimo esperable por persona. Aun así, no es obligatorio dar ningún importe en concreto. Sentimos las molestias ocasionadas. Translate this opinion into English.

Ana ha sido magnifica como guía (he hecho muchísimos walking tours y el de Ana está en el top 3). No os perdáis el tour con ella ya que tiene muchísima información, sabe muchísimo y es muy comprometida. A veces un tour de 3 horas se hace pesado, pues os digo que con ella no lo fue y se notó por todos los que estábamos en con ella. Un acierto Translate this opinion into English.

Ana has been a magnificent guide (I've done many walking tours, and Ana's is in the top 3). Don't miss her tour, as she's incredibly knowledgeable, incredibly knowledgeable, and incredibly committed. Sometimes a three-hour tour can feel overwhelming, but with her, it wasn't, and it was noticeable for everyone on the tour. A great idea! Opinion translated. Show original.

Absolutely Fantastic Walking Tour with Rob! We had an amazing time on this walking tour — it was scheduled for 2 hours and 30 minutes, but honestly, it flew by! It felt much shorter because we were having so much fun and genuinely didn’t want it to end. Rob is an excellent tour guide — super knowledgeable about the city’s history and just as entertaining. He kept us engaged the whole time and had us laughing along the way. If you’re considering a tour, definitely book with Rob. Highly recommend

La experiencia con el guía Sergio fue genial: su espontaneidad, su conocimiento, honestidad al hablar... Igual te habla de la ciudad como de la del pueblo desde un punto de vista objetivo que te cuenta curiosidades de la cultura. Lo recomiendo 100x100. Translate this opinion into English.

Fantástica! Edu ha sido un guía de 10. Divertido, entretenido, dando información súper interesante sin hacerlo monótono. La verdad que ha tenido mucho engagement con todos desde el principio hasta el final, con los niños y los adultos. El recorrido es muy guay y te haces una idea de todo sin darte casi cuenta. Muy recomendable!! Translate this opinion into English.

Fantastic! Edu was a 10/10 guide. Fun, entertaining, providing super interesting information without making it boring. He really engaged everyone from start to finish, both the kids and the adults. The tour is really cool, and you get a sense of everything without even realizing it. Highly recommended! Opinion translated. Show original.

El tour fue entretenido, didático, dió muchos tips para poder aprovechar al máximo la ciudad y sus beneficios, habló sobre el transporte (muy bueno saber esos detalles) y nos dió lugares para disfrutar de la comida y la cultura irlandesa. Me gusto que no solo haya hablado sobre la historia y sus detalles sino tambien de todo lo que la ciudad tiene para mostrarnos. Nor fue un excelente guía! Translate this opinion into English.

Carmen, nuestra guía, un diez, y no solo por su simpatía, que hizo que se nos pasaran las dos horas y media del recorrido en un plis plas, sino también por su gran conocimiento de la historia de Irlanda y de sus protagonistas. Sus explicaciones estaban llenas de anécdotas que hicieron muy amena la visita guiada. ¡Felicidades y muchísimas gracias! Translate this opinion into English.

Carmen, our guide, was a 10, not only for her friendliness, which made the two-and-a-half-hour tour fly by, but also for her vast knowledge of Irish history and its key figures. Her explanations were full of anecdotes that made the guided tour very enjoyable. Congratulations and thank you so much! Opinion translated. Show original.

El guía caminaba demasiado rápido. De casualidad que más personas no quedaron por el camino. Se comentó y mejoro algo pero continuo caminando rapido. No daba tiempo para mirar por donde pasabas. No me sentí cómoda. El recorrido no pasó por todos los lugares importantes, mismo si estábamos muy cerca. No recuerdo el nombre del guía, fue un chico. Ha sido uno de los free tour menos interesantes y la ciudad, tiene mucho que ofrecer.

The guide was walking too fast. It just so happened that more people didn't stay on the path. We discussed and improved things, but I continued walking quickly. There wasn't enough time to look where you were going. I didn't feel comfortable. The tour didn't cover all the important places, even if we were very close. I don't remember the guide's name; it was a guy. It was one of the least interesting free tours, and the city has so much to offer.

Pese a la lluvia, pudimos conocer razonablemente bien los lugares más emblemáticos de Dublín. Nuestro guía es un profundo conocedor de la ciudad y de su historia. Sus consejos en todos los sentidos nos han venido muy bien en nuestra visita. Muy recomendable la actividad. Translate this opinion into English.

Despite the rain, we were able to explore Dublin's most iconic sites reasonably well. Our guide is deeply knowledgeable about the city and its history. His advice on every aspect of our visit was very helpful. This activity is highly recommended. Opinion translated. Show original.

The knowledge and tales Rob shared with the group were well worth the walk in the persistent rain with my family. My 9yr old daughter thoroughly enjoyed it, quizzing Rob whenever she could, and even my 6yr old boy got through the journey with a smile on his face.

Si bien el recorrido estuvo "bien" y Rebeca aporto información sobre la ciudad , dando algunos detalles interesantes del sitio (el cual es muy bonito por cierto) no nos pareció agradable que al finalizar el tour "exigiera" en cierta manera el pago de una tarifa ( de al menos 10 euros) ya que hemos hecho mas de 20 tours y nunca nos había ocurrido que se fijara un precio por el mismo ya que la finalidad entiendo de este tipo de excursiones es otra. Cada quien aporta con lo que pueda o considera.

Although the tour was "good" and Rebeca provided information about the city, giving some interesting details about the site (which is very beautiful by the way), we did not find it pleasant that at the end of the tour she "required" in a way the payment of a fee (of at least 10 euros) since we have done more than 20 tours and it had never occurred to us that a price was set for it, since I understand the purpose of this type of excursions is another. Everyone contributes with what they can or consider.

Irene encantadora y todo explicado súper bien. Creo que la próxima tiene que estar muy claro desde un principio que un freetour no es "free" porque hay gente que le echa mucha cara y se va sin pagar, y es una pena para los que trabajáis en hacer esta experiencia super divertida Translate this opinion into English.

Irene was charming, and everything was explained superbly. I think the next time it needs to be made very clear from the start that a free tour isn't "free" because some people are too brazen and leave without paying, and it's a shame for those of you who work to make this experience super fun.

Hicimos el tour con una guía llamada Carmen! Fue una suerte! El tour fue excepcional!

Además nos recomendó sitios a los que ir y nos enseñó los puntos turísticos muy bien. Muchas gracias Carmen! Translate this opinion into English.

Al recorrido le falta pasar por algunos puntos clave en la ciudad, como la catedral de San Patricio. Te dicen que está al lado pero no paras ahí. El recorrido da una vuelta algo extraña por la ciudad por calles secundarias cuando se podría pasar por calles y puntos más principales.

The tour misses some key points in the city, such as St. Patrick's Cathedral. They tell you it's right next door, but you don't stop there. The tour takes a somewhat awkward detour through the city, traversing side streets when it could have taken in more main streets and points.
