About this quest

Dublin, Ireland. A peaceful morning. Just you, your garden, and a hot cup of coffee... until an alien spaceship crashes into your rose bushes. Out steps Borty, a bug-eyed, fly-like creature in a spacesuit, begging you to guide him to the Teeling Whiskey factory. Why? He won't say. But time is ticking.

Join this hilarious self-guided walking tour of Dublin's Old Town as you escort an alien through St Patrick's Cathedral, the Guinness Storehouse, Kilmainham Gaol, and the winding streets of The Liberties. Borty needs Dublin trivia for an intergalactic pub quiz. The stakes, apparently, are life and death.

One of the most unique things to do in Dublin, this Dublin city walking tour wraps real history, hidden landmarks, and genuine local charm around the most unexpected guide you'll ever meet.

Highlights

    - Guide Borty the alien through Dublin's Old Town as he collects answers for an intergalactic pub quiz with very high stakes - Visit the Teeling Whiskey Distillery, St Patrick's Cathedral, the Guinness Storehouse, and Kilmainham Gaol - Discover the stories of Darkey Kelly's ghost, the Door of Reconciliation, the 9,000-year Guinness lease, and the 1916 Rising - Uncover what Borty actually does for work on planet Rongwonggigglenips, and whether he makes it home in time

The mission: Your story in Dublin

You're just standing at the back door of your house, enjoying a cup of coffee in your dressing gown, looking out over your beautiful garden, when of course an alien spaceship has to crash land in the middle of your roses and ruin your day.

The hatch door of the saucer ship opens, and a humanoid form steps out.

As he gets closer, you can see his big orange bug eyes and his resemblance to a fly... in a spacesuit.

He points his ray gun at you.

"I'm Borty," he says. "Can you take me to the Teeling Whiskey factory? I haven't much time.

Please."
