Authentic and moving experience

We had an amazing time at the Rock ‘n Roll Museum. Mathew, our guide, was so knowledgeable, engaging and personable. As a musician himself he helped us feel the connection to this part of Irish musical tradition. Came away with a whole new appreciation of the remarkable Irish rock musicians and traditions. I especially appreciate the stories about the female musicians. That the museum is a active studio and hosts performances makes the whole experience even more vibrant and authentic.

Great tour, great host :-)

Really enjoyed this tour. My friends and I attended before The Strokes in Dublin, mostly to kill time before our hotel check-in opened, and we were guided brilliantly by Matthew. As enthusiasts it was great to see some of the memorabilia and the place Dublin holds in the history of rock ‘n’ roll. Specifically happy to see memorabilia of Sinéad O’Connor and Shane MacGowan. Particularly impressed with Matthew’s ability to cater to the viewing party’s background and also liken/contextualise concepts to modern examples. Thanks!
