Guinness Review

Is this a must ????? Especially at the price of 25 euros.
Our impressions of the visit are in line with the various opinions that we have read (on Google and guide du routard).
Above all, take the ticket directly from their site. Cheaper but still 19 euros + 2 for the audio guide on site.
The audio guide allows you to be more free during the visit rather than the group tour which seems longer.
The visit is very well directed and remains interesting especially by the dimensions of the old exhibits of the old brewery.
Because yes, don't expect to see the actual plant itself.
It is a tourist visit in script version with bright animations.
On the 5 floors, the first two are devoted to manufacturing, the other two to history, the pub and especially restaurants or bars to spend and the last deserves the detour a little more with its coup d eye on the city while you taste the Guinness "free" (with your ticket).
A tourist classic to do on a rainy day.
Interesting to know the manufacturing and a bit of history of the city and Ireland.
There are certainly more modest brewers who explain it just as well in a more authentic atmosphere (if you understand English).

I wasn't impressed at all. 25 for a pint guinness and a "self guided tour" of a bunch of pictures. Even though Guinness is made on site at no point did you get to see them actually making any beer, very disappointing.

We took the 15 tour, the Guiness museum is nice but nothing special. It is possible to taste the Guiness on the 4th or 5th floor, and then on the top floor you can sit and have a beer of your choice included in the cost of the ticket.
The top floor offers good views across Dublin and the surrounding area

I especially liked the beer almost to the description. The Guiness drink at the place of manufacture has nothing to do with the can, it is much better.

If you like beer and are in Dublin you can not miss the temple or cradle of beer. There is an exclusive 5-story building to learn how beer is made and on the top floor you have a 360 bas to taste a beer looking at the city. A luxury

Mate if you like beer and want to see a real one's produce, here is your adress.

Cool thing to do in Dublin, but I wish I could skip the tour and go straight to the bar for a pint.

A place to visit in this life. Guinness storehouse is amazing!

I d recommend getting a ticket online to bypass the queue. Once inside, you can pick up an audio guide before starting the tour. Otherwise the clear signs and interactive display should suffice in providing details of the brewing process and of the history of Guinness. The tickets come with a free pint of Guinness which you can redeem at the Gravity Bar, or alongside a pouring lesson at the Guinness Academy.

We purchased the Stoutie tickets too. Having my face printed on a fresh pint of stout seemed like a good idea at the time. We didn t know the Stoutie would allow up to three persons in the picture. We would not have purchased one ticket each had we known this. There was no way we could finish six pints (three free with entry tickets and three Stouties). Oh well. Once purchased, there was no possibility of a refund (we asked).

So here we go. Our face printed on a stout three times.

It s one big ad for Guinness. In worst Disney/coca cola fashion they show you beautiful but meaningless visuals about how fantastic it all is. There are a few ok part but it s 90% an effort to sell you more beer.

It s definitely a tourist trap packed with tourists. There are many floors to check out and walk around in, too bad the place was overcrowded. You can either get tickets in person the day off or book tickets online with time slot to skip the line. We got online tickets, arrived early without issue. Entrance ticket allows you to exchange for 3 small beer tasting in a rec room or 1 beer at the gravity bar on the top floor, overseeing the entire neighbor. The gravity bar would have been cool, except that it is packed with tourists, very minimal seating and no even much standing room. The advisement floor was cool, but again this place was too packed and serve more as a tourist site with a big gift shop and add-on for VIP experience.

A magnificent place and one of the essentials in the visit to Dublin. The best online ticket is obtained between 18.5 and 25. At the door only for 25. The visit takes 2 hours easy, and you discover everything that guinness gives of itself. The expensive souvenir shop. But that is a classic. The pint has to be thrown at the academy

Decent experience albeit quite expensive, fifth floor bar worth the view and the free pint

We had a big conference dinner here. Bar upstairs has nice views.

Very interesting to see how Guinness is created. Good resteraunt too.

A new generation museum, interactive and exciting. Mandatory step during a stay in Dublin. The visit ends with a tasting on the top floor. Great memory !!

Totally sucks except can drink. Don't even waste your time on this

Very nicely done, thought it would be way more touristy but you can go throught the entire history of Guinness and the complete process of making beer.

Cooperage Cafe carrot cake and stew 13.90 euro, pricey!

Buy your tickets ahead of time so you can avoid the long lines and don't go on a weekend unless you go early in the morning. The Dublin Hop On Hop Off bus stop is a great way to get there and the stop is located just steps from the entrance. Go to the Guinness Academy and learn to pour the perfect pint!

Fantastic trip and really enjoyed the experience. The staff were friendly and there is a lot to see and learn about the history of Guinness and how it was formed. We got the chance to pour our own Guinness and shown how to pour the drink properly in the process :).

A recommended trip if you are ever planning to visit Dublin.

I was disappointed by the mess and lack or organization in the tour.
You will not se the process and machines, it is just screen with audio.
You will not have a guide either.
The one star is just for the drink you will be getting at 7th floor with the fantastic view of the city.
I would not visit it the next time I visit Dublin.

The roof bar is very nice, but the "tour" is overpriced. Its just a small museum without a tour guide.

Really a must well done and the gravity bar is wonderful

Very crowded by people! Unfortunately not the best brewery experience. We tried to park car at the visitors' parking lot, but the guard didn't let us, although there were plenty of vacant parking places. Some of the toilets were not clean. I like Guinness a lot, but the tour experience is not the best. It worth to mention that such a tours are conducted absolutely free of charge in Japan including the tasting part. This tour is overpriced!!!

We did the Guinness Connoisseur Bar experience, and it was amazing. There are only a limited number of seats in the room, and we were lucky enough to be in two of those seats.
This experience brings your taste buds through a journey through time and beer!
We highly recommend this to those who love Guinness and all of their beers.

Not much to see here. That s not a museum, but the mall. You have to pay for everything. The only thing you are going to know here is - what the beer consist of. I d not recommend to visit it.

I returned there after several years, it is always an unmissable stop for those passing by Dublin, the pint of Guinness drunk at the Gravity Bar has a particular flavor. Entrance with online booking about 20 euros depending on the times, children accompanied by two adults do not pay.

Nice place to happily be for a bit and get drunk
Of course it is touristy but if you like beer a must. Irish culture!

The interactive displays throughout were entertaining and educational. Darragh at Guinness Academy was fabulous and showed us how to pour the perfect pint. Tommy, the manager, was knowledgeable and made sure our experience was the best.
Make sure to check out Stoutie Bar because you too can have your face on the top of a pint. Best adventure in Dublin to date.

Reasonable priced gifts which was refreshing. Learnt new things, and enjoyed my time.

Best experience, nice people (Robert is the best bartender)

Ok this is a mythical place but it is not worth the 25 of entry!
Is Guinness good for crazy? ? ?

Even those who do not like Guinness could visit this place as it is full of stories about beer. The program includes a historical tour of the firm, which also presents the different aspects of beer creation. Appetizer of the famous stout on the top floor. One less star however because for the price of the visit (free) I would have liked to leave with a free souvenir like, go at random, a drink.

This was a very cool experience going to the brewery but this is not a brewery tour. This is pay money to come in and shop and have 2 pints while you're here. I felt like I paid 40 Euro for two pints of Guinness.

This place was great but I didn't quite enjoy how no one showed you round the place

Awesome museum about Guinness beer, at the end of the tour you'll be invited to have a pint of Guinness on the top flat where you'll enjoy not only the beer but astonishing views of the city.

I recommend, it is worth booking about 3 hours for sightseeing and finally a surprise - a panorama of the city with a beer.

Great experience! Very well organized. Lots of multimedia exhibits walking you through every aspect of the brewing process to include how they used to make the barrels by hand. Make sure you participate in the tasting and pour your own Guinness, both cool experiences. They have a couple of restaurants and a rooftop bar with 360-degree views. This place is well worth a visit and a stop on every bus tour in Dublin.

How you drink it here in Italy or in verona you can't find it. Excellent!

Interesting to see how beer is made, but it's a bit too exploited to sell your own products but you can skip.

Fabulous visit to enjoy beer, learn ... unmissable ... flawless ... very complete ... fun ... super ... to pass and take several tastes ...

In Ireland, you drink a lot of beer. There are various colors of red, blonde, dark double malt and there is also a good liqueur

Unless you like Guinness very much, you will not be able to eat Guinness until you come here. But it was good for Guinness. There are a lot of Guinness Goodies stores in Ireland.

Michael in reservations was a great help and took no time at all to solve my problem :)

First of all, we were NOT in the building.
Because: Actually, we just wanted to go to the shop and drink a beer (where to drink Guinness, if not there), but just to get into the building at all, you have to pay an entrance fee, which is completely covered ( after M.). So just to get the chance to spend money there, you have to spend a lot of money. And not only that you have to pay a high entrance fee as an adult (I think about 18 ), no, even children under 16 (they probably do not even have much), must also pay 16.50.
In summary: We just thought it was outrageous to ask for such a high price to get to the shop and the bar in the first place.

If you are coming to Dublin, this is a must visit. The free beer tasting (included in the ticket price) at the gravity bar is a plus! Grand and impressive.

Unique experience !! For those who love Guinness !! must see eye to 'xk schedule is always full of people

Overall, you learn a lot about the design and history of Guinness. Arthur was a visionary in his time as evidenced by the XXXX years lease .... Well yes I will not spoil you; -)

the exhibition is well done with fairly thorough explanations. Too bad that some tourists are more interested in the free Guinness of the Gravity Bar than in the history ... let's talk about the Gravity Bar .... And well except to recover my guinnness after 3h30 of visit we could not benefit from the seen because there were a lot of people.

Overall the experience was very enriching and I could understand that Guinness is not a beer in fact ...

The only negative point in my opinion is that I didn't actually see the inside of the factory.

In short, it is advisable.

Well ... there are so many delicious beers that you can eat for 25 euros, even if you are not here.

Buy your tickets online to avoid lines, cool experience.

If you love beer you can't miss this amazing place. The tour is a great journey through the process of creation of this delightful beer and its history. At the end of the tour you can learn to pour the perfect pint of Guinness and then enjoy it, with a beautiful view of the city, at the sky bar on the top floor of the factory.

Very interesting, with interactive areas and the opportunity to taste and tap Guinness from the truth (for that maybe there is a bit 'to wait in line). Beautiful also the store and the last panoramic floor.

Absolutely brilliant tour would recommend to anyone, the academy was an extremely good experience with very very pleasant staff and a perfect pint at the end. Prices in store were the cheapest in Dublin, would do the whole tour again tomorrow. The sky bar was extremely good with exceptional views of Dublin and beyond. You should be very proud of your customer relations, well done.

Must go to tour. The place is brilliant. Many floors to explore and plenty to see and learn. Tasting experience and roof top glass bar. The staff were great and helpful. Thank you Guiness for looking after us

Busy and not very informative tour. Too expensive for what is offered. Setback

Great place. Even got to pour my very own Guinness!!!

A very nice attraction. It is worth visiting and learning interesting things about Irish brewing. In addition, beer tasting and learning how to pour. Be sure to have a beer at the glass bar with views of Dublin. Finally, visit the gift shop.

Must visit attraction when in Dublin. And do the Sudsie (photo on the head of your Guinness!)

Cheesy but you get to pour your own pint which is a cool experience.

A bit expensive and slightly overrated - just Guinness,
but for beer lovers and so worth a visit.

Be warned: this is just an educational Epcot exhibit about beer. I ve been on dozens of brewery tours and this was by far the worst tourist-trap. The architecture and design is amazing. But for the love of God just go to a local pub and talk to Irish people.

great place to visit... lovely staff... good information and great shop ... lovely pint of Guinness with an incredible view of the city

A great experience for people who love a dark beer and want to understand the process better. In addition, you get a lot of history from Dublin. Really a place where you must have been once. In the morning it is often foggy.

Quite pricey at 25. Self guided tour, not very interactive and engaging. Can get quiet busy which results in long wait for tasting room. Not a bad experience, but also not a memorable one.

Versatile information, entertaining, varied, beautiful view on the 7th floor and good beer (giness).

What an amazing experience it was, learning about the history of Guinness! The place was huge! It very difficult to not notice this building if you drive passed it!

Una visita necesaria en irlanda, altamente recomendable y totalmente justificado el precio

One of the highlights of our visit to Dublin. We took the guided tour and it was money well spent. We went in a small group, the guide was excellent - pointing out the important bits and pieces and talking naturally about the beer, it's history and how it is made. The tour includes a tasting of various Guinness beers and then a pint of Guinness in the Sky bar with a view of Dublin. For me this is a must see for anyone visiting Dublin.

Very interesting and Medial elaborately decorated place. 20 entrance (adult without discounts) are a bit much, but you get u. a. a free Gunniss on the 7th floor including overview of all Dublin. Recommended!

The Guinness Storehouse is an awesome experience, it is really touristy but I think still an thing you should do anyway. They offer a lot of things to do and see. I will not go into the details because I think you should just go and see for yourself wats in the Storehouse. I had an amazing time ( and to be honest with you, I trie to avoid places overflowing with tourists. But this is an thing you should not miss)

learnt more about beer brewing at Jameson! self guided with superficial information. do the pour your own and take pint to top floor. skip the rest unless you have no idea what a hop is.

This will come up on any list of touristy things to do in Dublin. We felt like we had to check it out while we were there.

If you buy tickets online, you get a discount. You but tickets for a specific time, but we were let in right when we got there which was before our time.

The experience is pretty cool. It is definitely very much a production. There was a floor for advertising which I thought was pretty interesting. They focused a lot on how the beer is made.

You get a free pint (which can also be used for soda) that can be used at one of a few different bars or experiences. We used ours at the gravity bar which was really cool with an amazing view of the city, but it was incredibly crowded.

There's if course a gift shop where you can buy just about anything you could ever want branded with Guinness.

I wish it had been a bit more interactive and that they had given more background on the Guinness family and the history of the brewery.

All in all, we enjoyed our time here, but I don't think I would be devastated if I missed it.

Very polished without much depth. Did you know Arthur Guinness signed a 9000 year lease? Because you'll hear it at least four times through your tour. Best part of the tour was the section on coopers. I left with a new appreciation of barrels but didn't learn much about their contents.

Tje highlight of our Ireland tour. A mist visit! Nice restaurants and souvenirs shop. The tour is really nice because you can follow at your own speed. With the tour you het a coupon for a free beer or drink. At the top floor you can get a panoramic view of Dublin. Loved the Guiness Storehouse overall. 5 STARS!
