This was a super experience! Our host was very knowledgeable and his presentation was great! We suggest booking early in the afternoon so you have time to enjoy the storehouse? We booked the 4:00 tasting and didn't have enough time to tour the other areas. We could have spent more time enjoying all there was to see and do there. Great time! The 'skip the line' feature was a true bonus!

I was not a Guinness fan but am now! our small group tasting was fun, informative and made me a believer!

Awesome! If your going to the brewery, you should do this. Very informative and delicious! Our host Hannah was great!

Well worth the extra cost above the basic tour. Small group of 16 meet in a private pub within the storehouse for a tasting and demonstration of all things Guinness by our fun and informative host Colm. We tasted 5 different types of Guinness and each got a lesson in the proper pouring technique while we poured our own pint from the tap. Highly recommend for all lovers of Guinness!

Everyone should do this!! No waiting in line, sitting comfortably during a tasting with only 12 people. Our guide for the tasting, Stewart, was charming, funny and gave us a great history lesson.

Great VIP tour! Worth the money and very informative. Skip the lines and be comfortable with less then 20 people in your group. We had a wonderful time and didn't feel lost because there are a lot of people in the brewery. So far the best tour in Dublin.

Excellent!! Worth the money!!!

So worth the money !! My 5 kids ages 18 to 27 LOVED the tasting and learning how to pour the beer. This was our final night in Dublin and this made it so memorable. I even boight a Guinness watch for each kid as a keep sake of our "once in a lifetime" family vacation !!!

Guinness Storehouse was excellent - worth doing the Connoisseur Taste Experience. We first toured the storehouse and then went to a private bar room. Our host was very knowledgeable and we sampled four different Guinness brews and poured our own glass on tap. It was an interesting, fun experience - would highly recommend this tour, especially for beer fans. Be sure to check out the Gravity bar on the top floor. It has a 360 degree view of the city.

We had heard such great things about this tour, from friends not just online reviews. We spent about 98 Euros on this package and we definitely did not get our money's worth. We were whisked in to the factory, quickly taught how to pour a beer, which took about five minutes and most people have learned how to do in their 20's. Then we were told to go up to the gravity bar to drink our beer. After that, we wandered through the museum and found that it was not worth the crowds. There is nothing special about the museum, especially if you have a basic idea of how beer is made. We tried to do a beer tasting, but they told us we were not allowed because we had already used our ticket learning how to pour beer. So, no beer tasting, no guide, no lines to skip outside the storehouse, only one pint of beer, and no souvenir. We spent about 30 minutes in the facility, mostly drinking our beer. Needless to say, it was extremely disappointing and such a waste of money. Instead, do the whiskey tours.

When you enter the Guinness Storehouse on the ground level go to the reception desk with your voucher. They gave us our tickets directed us. We then signed in at the Guinness Storehouse on the 4th level for a 4 pm tasting, and were taken to a quiet and comfortable lounge, which was delightful because the Storehouse is a crazy, busy place. Stuart, a Guinness employee and a man so knowledgeable about Guinness history and beers, ushered the 15 of us into a private bar - lovely bar with polished dark wood and mirrors and each place set up for flights of beers to taste. Stuart was so interesting and entertaining! We discussed the taste of the beers and learned how to pull a pint of Guinness, as we also learned Guinness history. Excellent, amazing experience and worth every penny. If you love beer, and especially Guinness, I highly recommend using some of your time in Dublin for this tour. The Guinness Storehouse also has a wonderful gift shop with a wide variety of Guinness related products.

This tour was amazing!

What a wonderful treat! Your very own private bar with 16 or less people for over an hour. This is the only way to truly enjoy the Guinness Storehouse. Our Bartender/Guide Danny was very informative and very humorous. Make the trip up to the Gravity Bar as well. Best view in Dublin. It doesn't hurt to be enjoying another Guinness or two while your up there. Thanks again for a great time. Larry and Janet A.

One of the highlights of our trip. Getting to taste the different types of Guinness with our connoisseur was enlightening as well as entertaining. I had no idea there was so many different brews, some of which are not available in the States. It was the right way to kick off our Dublin vacation.

For anyone that is a beer lover, this private tasting is really the way to go. Our host for the day was Keith, and he gave us wonderful history about the Guinness family and the brewery in addition to the 6 different beers that we were able to taste. The final test of the perfect poured pint was so much fun.
