This was our first time in Ireland and in preparation for the trip; I did read more about its history and the people. However, I was quite surprised to see how much I didn't know . The EPIC Museum was not only informative and interesting, but quite moving as well. I believe I read every letter and entry of the people that had left the country during such a difficult time. The Irish are a resilient, strong and innovative, loving people that continue being so, moving forward in spite of the hardships their predecessors faced. I was surprised to learn that some of our greatest scientists, artists, and novelists were Irish. They have indeed , touched practically every nation. I'm from Chile, and one of our dearest Founding Fathers was General Bernardo O'Higgins who helped Chile gain its independence from Spain. The museum beautifully captures the spirit of the Irish , although extremely difficult to fathom how they lived under such barbaric rules and conditions. Hopefully, I will return to Ireland and again visit the EPIC museum, I'm sure to be moved and learn something new. Thank you for the opportunity to share my experience .

James was a legend! Funny, charismatic, made the city charming and equally taking the piss out of the right things. Great time was had! Highly recommend live commentary. And we've now checked out several extra pubs (Kennedys and John Fallons). Made two Canadian gals very happy!!

A fun, knowledgeable chap gave us the history of the Jameson company and how it evolved. A flight of 3 of Jameson's whiskeys allowed everyone to compare the taste and mouthfeel of 3 of its flagship products. A fun hour or two, which also included a grog!

My guests are from Canada and at the EPIC they 'saw' their parents leaving Ireland by boat in the 1950's. A journey filled with hope and courage. My guests were really moved by the whole experience and have bowed to return.

I went on the river tour would have liked a 10 minute stop at the famine statues! Came all the way from the states just to see the memorial. There was no time to get on and off. The rest of the tour is amazing!

It was informative and enjoyable. One thing however. The potato famine was not as a result of weather. Rather the ENGLISH Government who took all our food
