Thinking of gifting the Irish History Tour – thoughts?

Hey everyone! I’m considering gifting the Irish History Walking Tour of Lower Manhattan to my dad for his birthday. He’s Irish and loves history, so I think he’d really enjoy it. Has anyone been on this tour? What did you think? Any tips on what to expect?

Just did the Irish History Tour – here’s my experience!

I recently went on the Irish History Walking Tour, and wow, it was amazing! Our guide shared so many cool stories about Irish immigrants in NYC. I particularly loved hearing about Fraunces Tavern and how it played a role in the American Revolution. It was a little chilly, so I recommend dressing warmly, but the experience itself was totally worth it!
