COMMENTS
I loved this tour. I learned a lot about the history of women in Ireland. Dana, our guide, was very professional and filled us with anecdotes about the suffragettes of 1916. Recommended if you are interested in these topics.

An excellent tour. Valentina has been a great guide, her explanations have helped us learn more about Dublin and its history, especially about women that fought for their country and for their own rights. The guide answered all our questions and gave us some great recommendations. A highly recommended tour!
