The tour was very nice once we avoided the big tour groups. You can set your own pace spending time on the things that interest you and skipping the things that do not. Also, I usually avoid lunch shops at attractions, but this is definitely worth a try. We had Guinness and Beef Stew with Guinness Black Bread. It was... More

Believe it or not this den of advertising is the most visited site in Ireland! Absolutely the only reason to plow through the crowds and the barrage of advertising is the stunning view from the Gravity Bar. That is, if you can get through the crowds sitting on benches and standing around with their backs to the windows, and if... More

Impressive. The entry ticket is 16.50Euros but if you have a hop on-off pass, then the entry ticket is for 15.50Euros. There is a soverign shop inside and the price for the fridge magnets is cheaper here than outside in the shops. Please have lunch at their restaurant. it's not pricey and the stew is brilliant.

The tour was okay, but the real reason to do it is the Guinness you get at the Gravity Bar uptop the Storehouse with the 360 degree views of the city. Good time and loved the store where we bought lots of goodies and they shipped them home for us.

A very interesting, engaging, and well-orchestrated museum of everything Guinness. Perfect for a rainy Dublin day when you don't want to walk around outdoors. Give yourself a good 2+ hours to see everything (and to savor your pint!). Bring a camera and don't forget to buy some Guinness chocolate on your way out. I would suggest getting your 'free' pint...

We enjoyed the tour and explanation of the making of this beer. It's self guided so you can take as much time as you'd like. I really hadn't tasted Guinness before and I really like the draft! We had lunch at one of the several restaurants in the large building...the food was very good and with the price of the... More

Went to the Guinness Storehouse 2 months ago and had a reasonable time. It was interesting but nothing worth screaming about and definitely not worth 16 euro. Tour is self guided over several floors. Its a nice place and laid out well but can be difficult and boring to read a lot of the information written on the walls..............Although I... More

We are not stout drinkers, but when in Dublin...it was a delicious pint. The view from the gravity bar was excellent. We had a bite to eat on the lower floors. Irish stew made with Guinness. Fun tour, great view.

The tour here is self guided with a several floors of information videos and presentations. The place is huge. If you purchase your tickets online, it is 14.85 euros per person vs 16.50 euros if you show up. If you purchase online, you don't have to specify a date and tickets can be printed on one of their computers so... More
