We had a great North City tour with Noel. He showed us a side of the city we didn’t know, generously sharing his own story as well as the stories of people struggling with addiction, mental health issues, and homelessness. I would highly recommend this tour to both Dubliners and visitors. I’ll definitely be back for the South City tour.

Thank you Noel for this great tour of North Dublin! Because of your story, we were able to view Dublin from a different perspective, which would usually stay hidden for tourists. The fact that you openly and without hesitation answered our questions, was something that we did not take for granted. We do hope your dream becomes reality!

My friend and I signed up for a Secret Streets tour with Ken in South Dublin. What an incredible tour! Learning about Dublin from the perspective of someone who has spent time experiencing houselessness and addiction was incredible vulnerable and meaningful. I think when we often travel we don't think about certain very real experiences occurring under our noses. Ken helped us connect to the city in a way I haven't before in a city that is not my own. It was also a fun time bantering with someone from Ireland, while my friend and I had stories to tell about our home countries. He was such a delight!

Outstanding tour of North Dublin with Noel today. Fascinating, funny, sad, scary and uplifting. Noel is the best guide I have ever had the pleasure to spend time with. It was a privilege to participate in his tour.
Simon
Do this tour if you want to get a connection with Dublin! I'm a guide in UK and ireland for 11 years and I just brought my group of 19 people for Kenny and Noel's tour. Best and most enjoyable tour I've ever done. Everyone loved it. Informative, hilarious, honest and genuine.
