THE HISTORY

Seven Floors of Brewery Storytelling

The tour opens with the Guinness Storehouse self‑guided experience, a compact history of Ireland’s best‑known beer laid out across the Storehouse floors and framed by curated exhibits and interpretation.

THE VIEW

A Pint with a Panorama at the Gravity Bar

The visit includes a drink in the Gravity Bar where a 360‑degree view of Dublin accompanies your pint—an urban vantage that punctuates the Storehouse portion of the outing.

THE PUBS

Three Traditional Pubs and the Perfect Pint

After the Storehouse you’re transported in comfort to three iconic, traditional pubs in Dublin where the guide explains each venue’s history, you sample the local pours (three pints included) and take part in a pull‑your‑own‑pint experience.
