87%Guinness Storehouse

Both of my trips to Dublin have started here. It's a great tour/museum/bar. Who knew a beer company could have such an interesting history? Even better is the clever way the tour is laid out, taking you through this old building in an imaginative way.

It's touristy as hell but I love it! Have been here five times and each time I'm one of the only Irish people there. The reason I like it so much is because it's a self-guided tour and you don't have to follow some tour guide which I always find boring.

The tour is actually quite good which I hadn't expected being that I thought is would just be directed towards tourists. It wasn't that expensive as well when I was there and you do get the best pint of Guinness you can get any where in the world at the end of the tour in the Gravity bar, which... more The tour is actually quite good which I hadn't expected being that I thought is would just be directed towards tourists.

A must see in Dublinclose

Being only €3 for Adults, and Children under 16 free the Guinness Store house is brilliant value for money! It's also an amazing place!

It's also an amazing place! Your ticket is a plastic orb with an original drop of Guinness inside. On the underside of the ticket is a rubber band that you can exchange for a Pint(Adults) or Soft drink (Kids). The building brings you through the history of Guinness, the making process and many other fun things. You can test yourself to see if you can "pull the perfect pint", leave a message on the wall even. Once you have made your way upstairs to the "Skybar" you are given breathtaking views of Dublin city and surrounding areas. Weather permitting you can see up to 15Kilometres. A great place to learn, enjoy and relax!close

Easily, one of the best places in Dublin to get a view of the city. Enjoy your complementary pint in the gravity bar at the end of the tour. Aim to go there on a clear day for best views.

If you don’t go for the option of a guided tour you are escorted around by one of the master brewers by video. Highlights are the tasting half way through and your free pint of the blackstuff at the end in the Gravity bar with a good panoramic view of Dublin city. At €13 entrance its well worth it.close

One of Dublin's main attractions, but just not much to see... A quite boring museum. The bar on the top has a great view on a sunny day and you do get a free guinness - well, after paying 14 Euro in that is.

Guinness Storehouse is Dublin number 1 visitor attraction. No Dublin holiday is complete without a trip to this storehouse. You can learn everything about producing Guinness from ingredients, brewing process to its taste as you will get your free pint of Guinness on the 7th floor.... more Guinness Storehouse is Dublin number 1 visitor attraction.

The only problem is that it is not right in the city centre but you can get there easily on foot along the river and have a nice walk. Hop on hop off bus can also take you there.close
