“The tour was great, but made even better by our amazing guide, Niall McGuinness. A local man with so much knowledge and a great sense of humor. The college library is something to see! Saint Patrick’s Cathedral will take your breath away. We had an extra special treat at the Teeling Distillery. Mr. John Teeling himself provided the introduction to the tour and we were all given free hats because of the holiday. Ending at the Guinness facility was amazing! Because we were in the tour, we received VIP treatment and were able to get straight in. Having a Guinness in Ireland on St. Patrick’s weekend was the perfect end…”
