Teeling, Jameson & Guinness in one day.. for under €45

What we didn't expect was that the tour with the best whiskey in it would be the one we rated lowest.

This was December 2024, it was cold, and we had a Go City Dublin pass burning a hole in our pockets. Teeling, Jameson and the Guinness Storehouse are all on it, all three are walkable-ish from each other, and somewhere between the first coffee and the first whiskey we decided to just do the lot in one go. Three drinkie tours, one day. Sensible? No. Worth it? Genuinely yes.

Ok so, what does three tours in one day actually cost?

This is the bit that makes the whole thing work, so let’s do the sums properly.

We had the 3-day All-Inclusive pass, which is €134 per adult at August 2026 prices. Split across the three days that’s €44.67 a day, and that particular day bought us all three distillery tours.

Booked separately, the same three come to a fair bit more. Go City reckons the gate value at up to €20 for Teeling, up to €31 for Jameson and up to €30 for the Storehouse, so €81 all in. Checking the actual booking pages, Teeling’s own site lists its Teeling Tasting tour at €18, Jameson Bow St. starts around €26, and the Storehouse runs dynamic pricing somewhere between €26 and €36 depending on how busy the day is.

So call it €70 to €81 of tours, for €44.67. And we still had two days of pass left to play with!

Top tip - the Storehouse prices move with demand, so the €26 end of that range is a quiet weekday and the €36 end is a summer weekend. If you’re going anyway, book the pass and stop thinking about it.

A 1-day pass is €79, which is a little trickier to justify, but it depends how busy you want to be. We actually got the Kilmainham Gaol (a former historic prison) tour & entry into St Patrick’s Cathedral on the same day. We fancied the walk but there’s no reason you couldn’t use the Hop-on-Hop-off bus tour as well, which makes the maths fall significantly more in your favour!

Teeling: fantastic whiskey, flattest tour

Here’s the one that surprised us. The whiskey was fantastic. The tour fell a little flat.

It’s a much quicker tour, and it focuses more on showing you around the actual working distillery, a bit of info on the history, how it’s made, then a tasting session. Which is exactly what a distillery tour is supposed to be! The problem is entirely one of company. Sandwiched between the other two it felt understated, and the theatrics from Jameson and Guinness are a hard act to sit next to.

Three out of five, and I want to be clear about what that three means, because the whiskey itself is not the problem. If you only care about what’s in the glass, Teeling might well be your favourite of the day.

The €18 tour gets you the guided walk round plus a tasting of the Small Batch and a seasonal cocktail, and it’s about 45 minutes. There are bigger tastings if you want them, the Trinity at €25 and the Distillery Select at €35, and if we hadn’t booked it as part of the GoCity pass, we probably would have upgraded to one of these. Go and taste more of the thing they’re actually good at.

Jameson & Guinness: the ones with the theatrics

Now, these two are a different animal, and they know it.

Light shows, videos, moving statues, fun actors. We won’t spoil it, but there was a LOT of ‘wow’ and ‘look at this!’. Both of them are built as a proper production rather than a walk round a working still, and on the day it’s soo good. Four out of five each, easily.

Here’s the honest caveat though, and it’s why those are fours rather than fives. That’s a first-visit score. The wow factor is the product, and wow doesn’t survive a second viewing. Once you know the statue moves, the statue moving is just a statue. We’d send anyone who hasn’t been, and we wouldn’t pay to do either of them twice.

Okay that’s actually a lie, Sofi’s been to Jameson twice, she actually did 3 Jameson tours (they do a lot of different types, but that’s another blog) back to back, which weirdly they stopped allowing a few months later, one of life’s great mysteries.. Anyway, most normal people would only go once is what we’re saying.

Jameson’s Bow St. tour runs 40 minutes to an hour and finishes with a drink at JJ’s Bar, neat, on the rocks or as a cocktail. The tasting flight was our favourite bit, three side by side and you can actually tell the difference, which is not something I’d have confidently claimed beforehand.

The Storehouse is the big one and everyone knows it, so the thing worth saying is the practical bit: pre-book, it gets rammed, and the Gravity Bar at the top is where your included pint lives. Grab a table by the glass if one goes free.

It was decked out for Christmas when we went, which is not a permanent feature but it did no harm at all.

Would we do all three in one day again?

Yes, and that surprised me a bit writing it down.

The order could have been done better, that was our fault though. Teeling is the smallest and quietest, so doing it first and finishing at the Storehouse means the day builds rather than deflates. If we’d gone to Teeling first it probably wouldn’t have felt as quiet as it did, and that three might have been a four.

The bit to keep in mind is that three tours is three included drinks plus tastings, plus any side quests & bars you fall into, and that adds up faster than you’d think. Eat something in the middle. We are not going to pretend we planned that well.

If you’ve got the pass, Dublin has a lot more on it than distilleries, and the street food tour with Kevin beats all three of these by a mile. He used to work at the Guinness Factory, so he’s got the gossip the Storehouse won’t tell you. We did something similar in the States too, and our 5 day New Orleans Go City itinerary is there if you want to see how the same pass maths plays out on a longer trip.

Three tours, €44.67, and one very slow walk home.
