About
Say cheers at the Guinness Storehouse in Dublin, Ireland. Housed in an old fermentation plant, the seven-story brewery gives you the lowdown on Ireland’s iconic beer. Start by standing at the bottom of the world’s largest pint glass and then make your way through the different stages of production before enjoying a complimentary pint with a view at Gravity Bar, Dublin’s highest bar. Even better, learn to pour your own pint with the Guinness Academy Experience. The storehouse is within walking distance from Dublin city center; tourists can also get there via the hop-on, hop-off bus. – Tripadvisor

Actually pretty awesome!
Mar 2023
Okay, so you go to Dublin which means you kind of HAVE to go to the Guinness Storefront if you want to be a proper tourist...but guess what, it's actually kind of awesome. We brought our two young kids (ages 3 and 5) and they were entertained enough to get through the self-guided tour. The building is HUGE and well-designed with so much to see that we were never really bored. In fact, we planned to walk through quickly for the kids' sake just to say we were there, but we ended up staying about 1.5-2 hours as there was plenty to explore. Let's be honest, you're going no matter what since that's what a tourist in Dublin is supposed to do....you won't be disappointed.

Way overpriced for just 1 free beer
Mar 2023 • Couples
Way overpriced, $40 a person for a self guided tour and 1 free beer…. It’s just bragging rights to say you went to Guinness in Dublin…. But it’s not worth the money

Mar 2023
I am not even a big beer drinker and have always said I don't like dark beers, but this was a very interactive, fun tour and the Guiness beer was really good!! Get the option to pour with your picture on top - very fun!

Touristy but worth it.
Mar 2023
I had heard from many people that this is certainly a touristy thing, but that it would be worth it. It was. You get to see what goes into a Guinness, but the real highlight lays at the Skybar. You'll get amazing views of the city, while drinking a pint. We were fourtnate enough that the weather cooperated and we were treated with 360 views of Dublin. My wife and I opted for the Stoutie tickets, having a printer print a selfie of us on the top of a Guinness (this also comes with an extra drink ticket). Well worth it.

Want my $$$ back. It's a train wreck
Feb 2023 • Couples
The worst experience we had in Dublin
It was a safety hazzard....couldn't see the exhibits because it was so crowded....all it is is them trying to sell/advertise their stuff.....no history...also. no one to ask for help
The "free" drink w the tour couldn't be enjoyed because the room was overpacked. No seating......
Would love to get my money back....it was such a joke....
The only bad experience we had in Dublin....
I would love a response
Save your money......don't do it

Great guide and tour
Feb 2023
My first excursion upon arriving in Dublin was to the Guinness Storehouse. I am visually impaired and was traveling by myself, so before I made my reservations I reached out to customer service via email to see if they provided any assistance since the tour is self-guided. Rhonda replied to my initial email and offered to have a staff member walk around with me in order to give me the best experience possible. I sent a few follow-up questions, and both Rhonda and Carol were very helpful and responsive to those as well.

When I arrived, I asked the employees standing at the door if I was at the correct entrance, and one of them asked me my name. He turned out to be my guide, Kevin, who was waiting there ready to greet me upon my arrival. I could already tell that this was going to be a great tour.

Kevin was extremely knowledgeable and informative, offering me explanations and encouraging (and humoring) my many questions. He took pictures for (and of) me and he helped me to find a table in both the (very crowded) STOUTIE Bar and Gravity Bar, as well as ensuring that I was comfortable and having a good time.

The kindness of others can often be what makes or breaks an experience. Huge thanks to Kevin, as well as Rhonda and Carol before him, and all of the other helpful employees and new friends I made there, for helping to start my trip to Ireland off on an incredibly positive note.

We recently visited this Guinness Storehouse and it’s a must when going to Dublin. The sky bar at the top has amazing views as well. Definitely good value for money.
