The guide was marvelous, very entertaining. The history that was provided to us was great, but I found the actual 'splash' part of the tour (a boat ride on the Liffey) a little underwhelming. It's worth taking the time to go on the tour just for the history and stories though. Plus you get to wear little Viking hats.

This is a great way to spend 1.5 hours. Also get to see most of the special places of interest in Dublin. Good fun roaring at people on the footpath. Guides are great fun also. Well worth the spend. This bus tour is a bit different, the vehicle goes into the water also.

Overall an interesting road tour of Dublin, a little let down that the water side was in the lock, rather than down the Liffey as was expected and was just 15 minutes in a circle around mainly new buildings. However the tour guide was great, knew everything, was able to answer all our questions and really made the tour what... More

Loved everything about this, we entered into the spirit by wearing Viking helmets and shouting at passersby, our driver was excellent at bringing the tour to life, definitely a must

Did the Viking Splash Tour on Sunday April 28th. Anto our driver and guide was hilarious but knowledgable so we learned a lot about the history of Dublin City. It was great fun doing the " Viking Roar " at the unsuspecting "cappuccino celts", "competition celts" and "lost celts" on the streets. I would certainly recommend this tour. Any age... More

Excellent tour with a difference. Anton the Viking (driver and captain) had us in absolute stitches with laughter throughout the tour, but we also learned about historic Dublin. Thoroughly recommend.........

We have been in various "Duck Tours" in various cities, and this was just as much fun. We love them. You get a much better view of the city than the "hop on hop off" tours. Our driver was knowledgable and informative and good fun. Word of warning....these tours are so popular that during peak times you will need to... More

We went on the Viking Tour for my partners birthday treat. The tour was good fun and the guide knowledgeable. Great fun pretending to be Viking for a morning. Only comment would be that the on water bit of the tour was just around the canal basin, you don't really go anywhere unlike other similar tours in London for example.
