There are grander sights in the world, but the atmosphere during sunset makes it worthwhile. The view from the sea is something to behold imagining how ancient mariners would have viewed the old city. It’s well worth the visit. Don’t bother during the heat of the day. There are better archaeological wonders nearby and many untouched a small drive away, but I’d encourage you to venture to it.

So beautiful! Amazing views, amazing architecture, amazing history. Lots of photo opportunities, lovely views of the sea wonderful eatery options. Kid friendly and best to enjoy this on foot..it is so worth the little walk as you can truly take it all in.

Beautiful historical site with stunning views. It would have been lovely to have some information about the site available for tourists. I would definitely recommend finding out about the temple first. I was disappointed to see that there were tourists climbing on the ruins and this was apparently ok! There was a nice little rock pool area to explore between the temple and the sea.

Beautiful Roman architecture. Must see if you are a fan of ancient architecture in this region or in total. Side is amazing place, one of my favourite visited so far. After walk and all sight seeing you can chill in nearby cafe or take a boat trip which at the moment some are offered as 2.99€ per person.

Impressive and humbling site. One of the best things I have ever seen. The whole Side town is full of ancient Roman ruins, but the temple is right at the edge of the land and offers amazing views. I suggest visiting the site very early in the morning before the crowd gets in. I took a walk around the town at 6am, and there was barely anyone around.

Historical temple. Nice view as it is near sea. Many coffee shops and other arabic cuisine restaurants. Good shopping market. Needs to negotiate prices very badly.

stunning ruins and really pretty little shopping plaza. but be prepared for constant offers to buy roles and gucci extra "for very good price"

Honestly its not much of a temple except a couple of pillars left standing after tidal waves and quakes have levelled most of the erstwhile temple. The pillars themselves are half recreated not original. The place creates one hell of a view near sunset to look upon the history and legacy this place once held. But its a long walk inside and I would not recommend it except during good weather and if you have a lot of time. The rest of the place has a couple of decent beaches for boating and swimming and a long line of shops. Seems like a tourist trap to me.

Beautiful antique city, in Side/Manavgat, very close to a small boat marina and Side downtown city. Nice small shops and restaurants around. Most impressive near evening/night.

The whole harbour town is littered with monuments, original features, house, amphitheatre etc. You just walk around to see them. Modern buildings are innkeeping, and many street areas are glass covered to reveal the original features below. Really nice touch. Easily spend half a day wandering round here.

Beautiful! Just stand here peacefully and try to imagine what it was like hundreds of years ago when the ancient Greeks were here, feel and hear those people. Your imagination is unlimited, if you allow it to be

Great piece of ancient architecture framed against the blue Side sky. Only improvement I could suggest is more historical information available at the site to enable aporeciation of its significance.

When we have entered the ruins and the temple we had vibes from Rome. We loved Rome, so we loved the Apollon Temple too. We went there at 16:00 because we wanted to see it in daylight, and we have waited until the sunset and also the night to see the city lights in the evening. There is a small "train" that can take you straight to Side for 1€ but it's better to walk it there. The walk will take 10 minutes at most. If you are visiting cities near Side definitely have to check out the Apollon Temple!

It free so if you are in Side its worth a look, site quite small and is currently under restoration.

Really beautiful piece of history. This temple is cherry on the top of the whole ancient Side city. Worth visiting for sure and strolling around. At night it is well illuminated and that is the time when most of the crawd gathers.

Beautiful place to spend time. Many places around to buy, drink and eat.

Treasure trove of history ! It was quiet and not busy, definitely worth a visit for all those that love going back in time. A chance to take some amazing photos too!

Very nice ruins, lots of history, and if your lucky archaeologists will be doing live digs in the area

Beautiful place to visit

Nothing to see here.

But its not men temple it is demether’s temple

(Translated by Google) The location of the place is very charming. Generally, a very popular place in Side offered by probably all travel agencies. The statue of Apollo in general can be. Six columns and that was it. An Instagram photo is released. The rest are ruins that do not stand out much compared to other ancient cities. I have seen much better preserved remains of Roman civilization in other parts of the world. (Original) Lokalizacja miejsca bardzo urokliwa. Ogólnie bardzo popularne miejsce w Side oferowana przez pewnie wszystkie biura podróży. Pomnik Apollina ogólnie może być. Sześć kolumn i tyle było tego . Wychodzi Instagramowe foto. Reszta to ruiny które na tle innych starożytnych miast nie powala za mocno. Pozostałości rzymskiej cywilizacji widziałem w innych rejonach świata dużo lepiej zachowane.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful remains of Christian temples. Unfortunately, these are mostly ruins, but thanks to the Turks for taking care of them. Unfortunately, the entire commercial area is terrifying. Noise, crowds of people, shouters, intruders trying to get you into the store, and people who are only interested in buying, consuming and making noise. An extremely tiring walk to see the monuments. (Original) Piękne pozostałości chrześcijańskich świątyń. Niestety są to w ogólnym zarysie ruiny, ale i tak chwała Turkom, ze dbają o nie. Niestety przeraża cała komercyjna okolica. Hałas, tłok ludzi, nawoływacze, natrętów próbujących wciągnąć cię do sklepu No i ludzi, których jedynie interesuje kupowanie, konsumowanie i hałasowanie. Wyjątkowo męczący spacer aby moc pozwiedzać zabytki.

Very small museum so should cost max 20 lira and no 40 but I really enjoyed it and would recommend a visit.

A must place to visit in Side, Manavgat. If you are planning to visit both Side antique theater and side museum you can get a combined ticket for 80 Turkish lira. You will find yourself in a time machine. From past to present, Romans to Seljuk Turks, Macedonia of Alexander the Great to Byzantium empire you will be able to find pretty much anything related to these old civilizations that has passed through this soils.

Well curated museum with many wonderful pieces of Roman and Byzantine history. Well worth the price of entry and highly recommended if you're visiting Side.

Great day out, fantastic location on beach front and it's so knowable to see for yourself the past of Turkey has to offer and very good on entry price . Toilets available on site and little cafe for ice cream and a drink. Please give it a try as this helps fund the museum to keep us educated of our past it's well worth the visit.....

Side Archaeological Museum was quite informative and introduced you to the Antique City. Some of the exhibits are really fascinating

A lot of artefacts from the Hellenistic and the Roman periods. Tickets for the amphitheatre and the museum can be bought at the entrance to the amphitheatre. Payment cards accepted. Due to renovation, the entrance to the museum was from the seafront (as in mid May 2023), clear street directions are in place. No waiting in line was necessary when visited in the morning of a weekday. More people in the harbour around lunchtime.

Very nice museum, recommended to see :)

This is a really cool museum with a collection of various relics discovered around Side. One noteworthy thing you will find here are the ancient Luwian scripts which have yet to be fully deciphered. The museum itself is quite beautiful and the exhibits are inside a set of restored old bath houses. If you are in Side this is a must.

Well worth a visit. Not only the museum,the whole of Antique Side is built on Roman ruins .A number of the shops and outdoor areas have glass floors so you can see the ruins .

Small but very rich Museum! Never miss visiting it while visiting Side. The statues and pieces there complement the ones in Antalya Museum, so you must visit that one too, to get a full understanding of the history of the city. If you have the museum card, you can enter for free, otherwise you will pay 18 TL.

Museum quite literally built into ancient Roman ruins 🤯🤯🤯 This museum is phenomenal with all of its sculptures, sarcophaguses, and paintings. What's even more impressive is this museum is housed inside of actual ruins! For me this is very unique and I've never seen anything quite like this before. Absolutely adore this idea though! This is recycling done right 🤜💥🤛 A few of the statues in here are more than world-class. You could say these are my favorite not just in Turkey buuuut in any museum I've ever seen anywhere else in the world 💓🗽💓 There are a few museum cats hanging out in the courtyard looking for some kitty love... One cat was on the prowl trying to snag a bird off one of the ancient statues outside. Not something you get to see everyday haha It was an admiral attempt by the kitten buuut a feeble one as the bird was toying with the cat letting him get close and then flying over to the next statue and the next and the next 🐦😼😜😂 Huge thumbs up to this museum 👍

We loved this museum. It's very compact and has easy access to all exhibits. It has indoor and outdoor exhibitions. Descriptions are multilingual and handy to grasp.

A very good display of ancient artefacts well presented. Augments all the ancient sites close to the amphitheatre nearby. Price includes admission to amphitheatre.

A fantastic place to spend a day. This place starts with an ancient city, and then you get in-between shops, a garden, restaurants, and the sea. A good amount of walking one can expect here. There are several paid parking lots outside this place.

Historical place. Just historical broken construction. They are making some renovation. Nice view behind the temple near sea. No ticket. Old pavilion which has a ticket 17Euro.

Amazing walk and beautiful views in Side old town and Marina. Lots of touristic attractions, activities and plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Very hot though during the day.

Very serene and calm watched the locals fishing with a rod and conical net 🤔

Lovely restored old arched bridge, its quite unique as its dog legged and not straight over the river. They have done a great job of the restoration. It's just a shame that there is so much rubbish, glass and plastic bottles on the floor, it need tidy. Also some one has been lighting fires on the bridge and around the bridge which is a mess. Place needs looking after.

Nice bridge, but not a lot to see around it.

Might as well stop, it's on the way to Aspendos! No ticket needed and probably nice and cool by the water in summertime

Good histroic site, you should make a 5 min stop while on your way to Aspendos Ancient Ruins. However there isnt much axplanation, but a really nice view nevertheless

Beautiful functioning Bridge. Great views and not crowded with tourists. Worth a stop to just take some photos and soak in the view.

Beautiful bridge with amazing views of the river. Unfortunately it was raining when we got there so couldn’t spend much time there.

Lots of graffiti. It's been redone. Nice place to have tea or picnic

Very interesting and large historical site. A good place to visit, by walking through the area and have a rest close to the harbor or Apollon temple for a cay or coffee. Beware of some self named guides they tell you they will show you some special places. They just try to take you off the tracks and push you and to give money to them. I would not recommend to go there during lunch time. Overall a place to visit.

Beautiful place. Free entrance (except the theatre). At least an hour or two hours of walk. Then the city where are shops with suveneirs. I was so shocked how large the place is. I appreciate all the development that happens there.

Although now heavily commercialised, the city is wonderful! It’s got lots of ancient ruins on show and they are constantly digging for more! They have put glass floors in certain points so you can view the remains through them whilst visiting.

Side old town is full of ancient ruins so beautifully preserved. Lots of shops and cafes too. We visited at night and in morning (I preferred the quite morning where I could hear the sea and the birds). Beautiful mosque right in middle of it all. Needed a ticket for amphitheatre but everything else can be seen as you walk around.

Beautiful part of town. The ruins are everywhere! They are on display in the roads. The resteraunts are very nice. Definitely go to the museum as well!

Make sure to visit Side Ancient City, museum and the theatre. Must see place. Little town is also very cute to walk. Shops and food stores are everywhere.

The well-preserved ruins, including the impressive Temple of Apollo, the grand theater, and the ancient agora, are a testament to Side’s importance in antiquity. Exploring these ruins provides a unique opportunity to connect with the past and appreciate the architectural marvels of this ancient city. The location right by the sparkling Mediterranean Sea adds to the charm. The sight of the sea and the ancient ruins harmoniously coexisting is a sight to behold, making it a picturesque spot for photos.

This is an ancient Roman city that is well maintained and well designed to spend a half to one full day at. You walk through some Roman ruins, then walk into an old market area where you can buy snacks, drinks, and souvenirs. Next is the sea and some green area, and one can take a boat ride here or sit in a cafe or restaurant for a bite. Next is more Roman ruins, and finally you walk through a path with the sea on one side and houses and boutique hotels on the other side. The place overall is well-served with ample paid parking, restaurants, cafes, and shops. Most of the place is accessed for free, but the museums incur an entrance fee.

We visited there yesterday, completely by accident, as we were looking for a car park and thought to visit the beach! Parking was free, so we took a walk and got on the small tram running from the car park for 4 lira. We passed by extensive ruins and some of them were still under excavation. The other end of the tram leads into a shopping area, which is packed with tourists and restaurants, but throughout there are sections of glass pavements, covering even more ruins which lead right down to the harbour. A facsinating place to look around, there was obviously a large town on this site in ancient times. An unexpected delight.

founded/Create by Greek settler 700BC and then 67BC brought under control by the Romans tells an amazing story / part of history reflected in such a small place. Definitely a must when you are visiting turkey. Mind all sellers - they cheat you with my rates Lira/EUR and the good prices. Very impressive to see what kind of buildings already have been produced two thousand years ago.

A great place to visit. Take the land train into the town from the entrance and back up for just 50c or equivalent in Lira. Plenty of shops, bars and cafés Great historical place to visit and see. Very flat so also great for the elderly if there are any 👍 I would advise allowing 4-5 hours to see and do everything.

Side Ancient City - A Hidden Gem Amidst the Buzz Side Ancient City is a true gem that manages to capture the essence of history while avoiding overwhelming crowds. Despite its popularity, the site never felt overly crowded, allowing visitors to explore at their own pace. It's worth noting that the general pricing at Side Ancient City can be quite high. To make the most of your visit, it may be wise to grab a meal before arriving at the site. However, fret not, as there are excellent restaurants nearby that offer pick-up services, ensuring you won't go hungry during your exploration. With its captivating ambiance and convenient dining options, Side Ancient City promises an enchanting experience that seamlessly blends history and culinary delights.

Lovely place to go got loads of history the ruins are in fairly good nick it's mostly free but if you go into the amphitheatre you have to pay bit dear but worthwhile you cam emerse yourself and think of all the beast fight and gladiator that happen there was great the other sites were nearly as good but free the walk down to the old harbour lots of shops and restaurants ,also the harbour you can get boat trips at good prices then at the bottom is appoll temple which is worth a look all in all a very good and interesting place would recommend getting a map from tourist centre .

Side Ancient City is a historical and touristic area that attracts the tourists. Side, itself is beautiful place with its old town and historical background. It is full of culture and a role model of old civilizations. It is strongly recommended that tourists must visit this historical place.

A beautiful modern town created in the place of an ancient city. If you can add a couple of extra days in your Turkey itinerary, please spend that time here in this small but picturesque town full of energy as well as calmness. You can book a hotel and stay in the hotels inside, roam around, shop, do water sports, sun bathe, relax on the beaches, swim in the sea, have great food and wine in the restaurants.

amazingly beautiful place. There are many excavated ancient buildings. Entrance to the amphitheater and museum costs 17 euros for foreigners and 60 liras for locals. after we paid we were told that the museum was closed, that is, for 17 euros we only visited the amphitheater. I think this is a scam. 17 euros for this amphitheater is VERY expensive.

Ruins of Roman Theatre are the most precious of the whole ancient city (you have to buy the tickets to get there, but it's worth it). Overall the territory of the city is big. Getting there from all parts of Side is very easy.

A place full of history souls, full of story and legends, streets make you feel that you are living in ancient ages, place is also full of beautiful cafes and boutique restaurants, Well worth a visit

So many renovations (still underway) since I was here last. No admission fee presently. I had forgotten how awesome this city is!

Beautiful place worth visiting . It is free to see , you don't need to buy a ticket

In addition to the numerous Greek cities that have a rich history, I must say that Side is equally remarkable. From the moment you enter the old town, you'll be captivated by its ancient beauty. I'd also like to commend the city's efficient transportation arrangements.

very historic site in side Turkey

Beautiful

Walked passed this and it’s incredible to see

One of the most picturesque antique monuments that I've seen (and it was a lot)

you can feel the antiquity of the place

I have no clue why it has 4.7 stars on Google. Looks ugly to me.

Like it.

Beautiful place.

Absolutely nothing special.

Nice

(Translated by Google) An extraordinary and impressive temple. Unfortunately, it cannot be seen closely as the excavation team's work continues. Although it is known that the work progresses slowly due to the nature of the excavations, a solution can be found to see this beautiful and unique temple more closely. The round planned (monopteros) temple of the goddess Tykhe is located in the agora54. While the temple was deployed, the agora It was built slightly offset from the center to the southwest, rather than right in the centre. Here, when the temple-agora relationship is examined in detail, it is seen that the agora was planned together with the theater. Perhaps the temple was positioned in the initial planning, but later due to changes made in the plan, the temple had to shift from the axis of the agora. Another possibility is that, when the foundation surveys of the building were carried out, it was determined that the most suitable ground for the temple was in this part of the agora. Coin depictions of the goddess are in the form of Antiochian Tykhesi sitting in a round-planned temple. For this reason, goddess worship must have been brought to the city during the Seleucid rule. The cult of Tykhe must have been widely adopted during the Roman Period, as it continued the Hellenistic tradition. Quote: Hüseyin Sabri Alanyalı (Original) Olağanüstü ve etkileyici bir tapınak. Kazı ekibinin çalışmaları devam ettiği için ne yazık ki yakından görülemiyor. Her ne kadar kazı çalışmalarının doğası gereği çalışmaların yavaş ilerlediği bilinse de, bu güzellikte ve eşsiz bir tapınağın daha yakından görülmesi için bir çözüm üretilebilir. Tanrıça Tykhe’nin yuvarlak planlı (monopteros) tapınağı agora içerisinde yer alır54. Tapınak konuşlandırılırken agoranın tam merkezi yerine, merkezden biraz gü- neybatıya kaydırılmış şekilde inşa edilmiştir. Burada, tapınak-agora ilişkisi detaylı bir şekilde incelendiğinde agoranın tiyatroyla birlikte planlandığı görülmektedir. Belki de ilk planlamada tapınak konuş- landırılmış, daha sonra planda yapılan değişiklikler nedeniyle tapınak agoranın ekseninden kaymak zorunda kalmıştır. Diğer bir olasılıksa, yapının temel etütleri yapıldığında tapınak için en uygun zemi- nin agoranın bu kesiminde olduğunun tespit edilmiş olmasıdır. Tanrıçaya ait sikke betimleri yuvarlak planlı bir tapınağın içinde oturan Antiokheia Tykhesi şeklindedir. Bu nedenle tanrıçaya tapınımın Seleukoslar egemenliği sı- rasında kente getirilmiş olması gerekir. Roma Döneminde de Tykhe kültü çok benimsenmiş olmalı ki, Hellenistik geleneği devam ettirir niteliktedir. Alıntı: Hüseyin Sabri Alanyalı

(Translated by Google) The ruins of the Tyche Temple, once created by the Greeks (Tyche is the goddess of fate in Greek mythology), right next to the ancient theater in the old town of Side. In the evening the temple ruins are beautifully illuminated. Here an impressive building from a bygone era has been beautifully reconstructed. (Original) Die Ruinen des einst von den Griechen geschaffenen Tyche Tempels (Tyche ist in der griechischen Mythologie die Göttin des Schicksals) gleich neben dem antiken Theater in der Altstadt von Side. Am Abend ist die Tempelruine schön beleuchtet. Hier wurde ein beeindruckendes Gebäude aus vergangener Zeit wunderschön rekonstruiert.

(Translated by Google) Charming but surrounded by fences.. Never-ending restoration, I guess. It has a different architecture than others. It's right next to the entrance gate to Side. There is history everywhere here. I recommend that you travel with comfortable shoes. (Original) Büyüleyici fakat etrafı çitlerle çevrili.. Bitmeyen restorasyon sanırım. Yapı olarak diğerlerinden farklı bir mimariye sahip. Side'ye giriş kapısının orada. Burada her yer buram buram tarih. Rahat ayakkabı ile gezmenizi tavsiye ederim.

(Translated by Google) Restoration work continues. (Original) Restorasyon çalışmaları devam ediyor.

(Translated by Google) It is located right next to the theater. Do not leave this place without visiting the Temple of Apollo and the historical building with canisters around it. (Original) Tiyatonun yanıbaşında bulunuyor Burasıyla beraber Apollon Tapınağı ve etrafında bidolu tarihi yapıyı gezmeden ayrılmayın..

I would 100% recommend the cask draw experience - delicious 18 year old cask strength whiskey in a lovely aromatic environment. Katie was a charming and informative host. The splosh and gurgle of the distillers dog was a delight. I don't think I'd recommend the tour however. Our guide was great but it all felt a bit rushed and there wasn't enough time to linger and it all felt a bit constructed. It didn't feel that deep or engaging despite our guides best efforts. The whiskey tasting section was nice but the selection felt geared towards shifting product rather than a really distinctive tasting experience. I'm a whiskey enthusiast not an expert but there wasn't enough contrast between the whiskeys being tasted. You could buy the whiskeys as you exit through the gift shop though... You do get a good couple of drams for your ticket fee so there's good value in that. On balance though I'd recommend you get the cask draw for €10, buy a drink in the bar and go to the Guinness storehouse for the afternoon and enjoy the sunset in the gravity bar.

Great experience. Lots of people but really well managed with small group guided tours provided. Hats off to you guys at Jameson’s. Our guide Leah S was really brilliant; informative and entertaining as well as friendly and polite, making it a really worth while visit, highly recommended. Not too hard sell, just really interesting and enjoyable experience. Lots of credit was given to all the workers over the years who have made this such a success as reflected in the company logo of a man (labourer) with a barrel on his back. This is a ‘must see’ experience.

Made reservations for a Monday evening Cocktail Class. Loved the distillery and bar area - great vibes and decor! Enjoyed our cocktail class and even had a few more at the bar area after. We did visit the gift shop and were hoping/expecting it to have many more items, but it was quite small. Would recommend signing up for one of their activities if you appreciate whsikey!

We did the Jameson Distillery Tour and had an amazing experience. It lasted about an hour, and our tour guide Sean was hilarious! He went through the entire distilling process in detail and made it interesting. And the best part - WHISKEY! I highly recommend the orange "water of life" 😉 I don't want to spoil the tour so check it out for yourself, it's worth it! And something you absolutely need to see when visiting Dublin

This was a quick walk from center city & also the Guinness Storehouse, and is in a quaint area. We did the 45 minute tour with Alex and she was INCREDIBLE! So fun, knowledgeable, and engaging. The bar is also a great, warm spot to relax at the end. We would definitely come back.

Visited in 2022. This is a must if you are a fan of Jameson. The atmosphere is great as soon as you walk in. Cool bar right when you enter where they have very good cocktails. Their gift shop is great, lots of cool items that will make great gifts. They even have a few bottles that are exclusive to the Guinness store that you can personalize with your name on the label. We did the tour and the guide was amazing! He was so good at keeping everyone engaged and the content of the tour was really entertaining. We paid extra to taste from a cask that they tap open in front of you. This is something they do not bottle for sale. Overall, highly recommend it! P.S. I heard from a local in Dublin that he had gone on a tour awhile back and it wasn’t good but they had updated the tour a few years back and he had gone back as well and was much better. So if you had gone awhile ago and was disappointed, try again! Book ahead of time!

I did the Standard Bow Street Experience your which includes a drink on arrival to take with you on the 40+ min tour, learning about the history of Jameson, how the famous whiskey is made and whiskey taste testing. Molly our guide was very nice and informative. Really enjoyed it. Definitely recommend it.

A really great Irish whiskey tour in Dublin! We enjoyed the “basic” one hour program with an introduction to the drink distillation of Irish whiskey, the history of Jameson, and the taste testing of 3 different whiskeys. We were greeted with a welcome drink, and then our guide led us through the rest! Our experience was very good, and we learned a lot about the local whiskeys and how they are different. At the end, we walked through the gift shop and perused all of the different items available as well as the different whiskeys for sale. I would definitely recommend this experience for anyone that is a whiskey fan, or even not a whiskey fan, and we will recommend it to others!

The Bow St Experience tour is well organized. Tour guide was nice, tried to engage as much as she could and entertained us. Comparative tasting was good and fun. At the end you get a voucher for a drink. I would 100% recommend ginger&lime cocktail even if you prefer neat whiskey. What made this a 5 star review was a cask draw experience in their live maturation warehouse in the building. We had an absolute craic there with tour guide Niall (kudos!) who just shinned with the love for whiskey. He was very insightful with tonnes of knowledge. Niall made cask draw experience worth every penny.

Vey nice tour! The staff was very helpful and nice. The tasting was good, with great comparison between different whiskies. The store is fun with nice offering. Recommend taking the cask draw as well for full experience.

Our visit to the Jameson Whiskey Distillery tour was truly exceptional, especially for my boyfriend, a whiskey enthusiast. The tour provided a delightful journey into the world of Jameson whiskey, and here are some highlights from our experience: We started our adventure with a complimentary drink of our choice at the grog bar, setting a pleasant tone for what was to come. The tour itself was both educational and entertaining. We learned about Mr. Jameson and the fascinating history behind the creation of the business. What made the experience stand out was the interactivity, and our tour guide, Niall, was an absolute gem. His humor, knowledge, and engaging storytelling had us hanging on his every word. Moving on to the whiskey-making process, we were treated to a captivating performance that brought the art of whiskey crafting to life. It involved sensory experiences, including the opportunity to smell different aromas at various stages of production. The tasting portion of the tour was a true delight. We had the chance to sample three different Jameson whiskeys, each offering a unique and delicious flavor profile. It was a wonderful experience, especially for whiskey aficionados. To cap it all off, there was a fully equipped pub/bar at the end, providing a cozy space to unwind and savor the flavors of Jameson whiskey. Overall, the Jameson Whiskey Distillery tour is a must-do in Dublin, whether you have a deep appreciation for whiskey or simply want an engaging and enjoyable experience. The combination of history, storytelling, interactive elements, and, of course, whiskey tasting makes it a top recommendation for anyone visiting the city.

Not a fan of whiskey until today! The explanation how to taste made so much sense that you can actually really learn to enjoy it. Our tour guide was funny and explained everything very passionately. In total 4 drinks , one in the ticket you can trade in the begging or end of the tour and 3 more samples in the end of the tour. Used my Go City pass to visit this museum.

I visited 3 whiskey distilleries in Ireland and Jameson had the best experience of any of them, and was one of my favorite things we did in Dublin. The tour was very well put together (and Nial was an excellent guide). The add on cask draw was also cool. The bar there was also really good. In addition to their normal cocktail menu they had a whole old fashioned menu, we tried 3 of them and all were delicious. I would also recommend the bottle your own black barrel option to any whiskey fans.

We did the standard tour and cask draw add-on here and had a great time. Our tour guide, Erin, made it though. She was super awesome and kept us all laughing throughout. I really enjoyed at the beginning she had us all say where we were from and kept engaging with all of us so it didn’t feel like a normal run of the mill tour. While you don’t see the inner working of a factory, I felt like I did learn a lot. The cask draw was totally worth it in my opinion. They bring you inside a room that is full of whisky barrels and pull it straight up from one of them for you to try. The taste was so different than the bottled versions with it being extra burning and warmed your chest, very cool.

This experience surprised me in a positive way and surpassed my expectations. I am not a Jameson drinker but I really enjoyed the way they do the tour. Plenty of tasting and they make you feel welcomed. Our guide was great. He was informative , knowledgeable, lighthearted, and entertaining. Would recommend 10/10

Fantastic tour and experience for any Whisky fan or even those new to the drink - the whole experience was very enjoyable and our tour guide was welcoming, knowledgable and very friendly. You are out into timed groups and have a history lesson of Guinness, details on the manufacturing process and then finally a Jameson taste off vs Scottish Whisky and American Bourbon. Once finishing you are free to go to the bar and redeem your drink which are great! We definitely spent a while at the bar trying different drinks on the menu (would highly recommend the Irish coffee) All in all a very worthwhile experience - options are also available should you wish to do extended tours or private events (which looking back would’ve been great to do the cask tasting session)

We loved this tour. It was interactive, engaging and informative. We did the Guinness tour as well and found that one to be a bit of a money grab as it was primarily self guided. I’m not a whiskey drinker and enjoyed this tour anyway. A lot of pride from the folks who are employed by Jameson. You can tell it’s a well managed organization and they must treat their people well as everyone was passionate about their job and pleasant to ask questions to. The tour and tasting were well thought out. It exceeded my expectations. I would do it again next time I return.

Awesome informative tour. Our guide was amazing, answered all our questions and showed the history of some of the best Irish whiskeys in the world. Wonderful samples at the end. Got some bottles you can't get anywhere else!

Our tour guide was amazing. She gave us the history of Jameson in a fun and informative way. It was great to hear the Bourbon barrels of Kentucky contribute to the flavor of certain Jameson whiskeys. We fell in love with this place and enjoyed their new Orange Whiskey. My GF who was not a whiskey drinker now makes Ginger and Jameson a regular on her order menu. We purchased some personalized whiskey for my daughter and now son-in-law along with making our own bottle of whiskey was a great experience. 5 stars all day and a must when you visit Dublin

Great experience, especially if you’re a Whiskey lover. Our tour guide Niall was absolutely amazing, you can really tell he is passionate about the whole story. You get a voucher for a free drink with your tour ticket and you even get to try 3 types of Jameson whiskey at the end of tour

you must come here and do a tour if you're in dublin! we had an amazing tour guide (ronnie) who made the experience so good. the history and process of making the whiskey was absolutely fascinating and we loved every minute. you get to sample 3 whiskies before getting your grog (free drink) at the end of your visit. The gift shop is big with a lot of items such as hoodies, t-shirts, hats, posters etc. cant recommend enough!

Had the most amazing time at the Jameson cocktail making class! Loved the atmosphere, the mixologist Marco was fabulous - friendly, funny and knowledgeable! We learnt some really cool tips and tricks and of course enjoyed the whiskey! Highly recommended…

We did the general tasting tour. The place is amazing with an interesting history. We got to learn about how Jameson is made and got to try three different kinds of whiskey. The crested was the best of the three. The black barrel was also excellent. Great historical tour. We need to come back and take the classes. Make sure to check out the cat in the rafters.

My boyfriend and I went to Jameson's yesterday and we had a great great time, we're home visiting family and to celebrate St Paddy's day.... the staff were really great, we got to chat properly with Margaret, in the gift shop, really knowledgeable and friendly and of course our guide Leah was just fantastic.... another lovely girl in the gift shop who helped us with tax back, as he's from America, sorry I didn't get her name, we started with delicious old fashioned cocktails, 12€ each, then we did the 45 minute tour, we booked online 30€ each, it included a complimentary drink, choice of Jameson neat, or with lemonade or with ginger ale. You were able to bring this on the tour instead of rushing...... the tour itself included tasting of Jameson distillery blend, Crested Jameson and Black Barrel Jameson, it was a great experience and I will definitely go back and try one of the other tours another day..... well done Jameson x

We did the cocktail class it was really good fun. Our guide Paul brought us through how to make 3 cocktails 2 of which we made ourselves. The flavours, ingredients and whiskey choices were explained really well. After we had made our cocktails (about an hour) we went to a private area of the bar to enjoy them and they served our 3rd cocktail. We also got a book with loads of whiskey based cocktail recipes. We thought it was really good value for what you got €60 for a taster shot of whiskey, 3 cocktails (4 as there was extra of the last one!) and the cocktail book. I would definitely recommend the experience. Note though that as you are consuming a decent amount of alcohol on this experience they won't let you do the cask draw after doing this one!

Great experience, the basic tasting is a great deal, includes the post experience drink and a nice variety of cocktail options at the end. We went in the slow season, during winter and it was really quiet which made it even better. Took our time and only had a handful of people in our tasting. Loved learning the history, it's not as extravagant as say Guinness, but it's much more educational and interesting.

I visited Jameson for the first time in 2014 and the experience improved even more. The interactive presentation and the knowledge given to us by the Guide make this experience a must-do in Dublin. The tests are fantastic and the atmosphere is fantastic. The staff was always very helpful and cheerful. We ended up buying two Jameson references that don't exist in our country. Fantastic! I highly recommend this experience!

We came here and did the Bow St Experience followed by the Cask Draw which were two incredible experiences. The tour was fantastic (Alex was our tour guide and she was incredibly fun and informative) and the Cask Draw was such a unique experience where we got to try a 21 year whiskey straight from the barrel. Niall talked us through that process and gave us so much information about the whiskey. The experience is immeasurably better than the Guinness Storehouse and is very interactive, a must visit in Dublin!

An absolute must for whiskey connoisseurs and amateurs alike. We took the Jameson Black Barrel Blending Class and we won’t soon forget this experience. I wanted to do something memorable and interactive, the inclusion of alcohol was a plus. This Class included a very informative tour of the Bow Street Jameson location and an overview about the Jameson whiskey making process. I felt like I was watching a documentary full of detailed information and a lot of Irish charm. Our group was made up of only 5 people making for a personal and intimate experience. Based on ticket availability online it looks like this class would only ever have a maximum of 14 people making it a nice departure from larger tours offered in Dublin. Our guide/Jameson Whiskey Expert was very engaging and kept things light. As part of this class you’re able to blend and of course try, various Jameson whiskeys and learn all about what goes into the Jameson process. I won’t spoil anything but this is something that you must do if you find yourself in Dublin for any length of time. Additionally, I would recommend the engrave-able Jameson flask from the Bow Street Market. The flask itself is 25 euro and for only 5 additional euro you can get it engraved with up to 20 characters including spaces. This is an amazing souvenir and my husband is already excited to fill his up with Jameson.

The Bow Street Experience tour is very interesting split into three parts covering the history of the brand and the factory, the production process and finally a guided tasting. After the tour you have a token for a free drink in the main Grog Bar. Which is itself a very nice bar... Look up at the chandeliers. Our guide Joe was very engaging. Nice gift shop too.

Cocktail making class! Great if not the best option to choose from the different activities. Worth booking in advance as there’s not always availability. Good fun with great atmosphere! Reduced groups of max 16 people, the activity allows you to make 2 cocktails from scratch with guidance from an expert cocktail maker. Starting with a whiskey tasting the class followed with the details, ingredients and instructions of two different cocktails (changing depending on the season) and ends the session with a third drink on a private area of the distillery prepared by the instructor. Great option for any occasion from a family event to a friend gathering. Price per person at the time of visit was 60€. Further details can be found on the official site website.

Beware of over friendly locals! The only reason I'm rating low is because we were forced to pay some local "guide" £20, he had a friend waiting for us in one of the hospital rooms. Watch out for the old guy. He was touchy with my partner and he's not that friendly when it comes to the end of his tour. Aggressive is an understatement, we didn't report it to the police because all we wanted to do was get back to the hotel. It spoiled our day and upset us both.

A Place with a lot of history. It's a must see.
