experience gaelic games

Despite there only being the two of us on this particular day, Gaelic Games was a fun, interesting and active learning experience. Cormac was so helpful and friendly and ensured that we had a great time so that the 3 hours spent there absolutely flew by. As there were only the two of us on that particular day he even offered us the chance to go back the following day to play with a group, if we hadn't had flights booked we would have snapped up the offer! This experience was our favourite part of our Dublin trip and we're thinking of returning with a ladies rugby team in tow! Highly recommended.

Our stag party sweated out the Friday night shenanigans as we were guided through our gaelic games experience. The staff were incredibly professional taking into account our fragile state and braking us in gently, slowly increasing the skill levels as the morning progressed. I can heartily reccomend these games for all, we had a great craic and experienced another side of what Dublin has to offer.

My friend and I went with our class of 18 students on a guided tour in Croke Park followed by an afternoon of Gaelic Games. An amazing and unforgettable experience! Thanks so much for your professionalism, your knowledge and your warmth - our students and us felt very welcome and will never forget this special day on our school trip!

Had the pleasure to participate in this one very wet, cold, windy evening as part of a tour group. Good introduction to the games with videos and so on. Learnt the basics of the two sports with techniques, skills and drills. Even though the weather was terrible, I still had fun. Maybe suggest in the summer months. This would be perfect for stag and hen parties looking for a good laugh, and something a little different.

I visit Experience Gaelic Games in September a our family was happy,because it was fun for everyone.I am satisified,that i can recommend this games for everyone

Croke Park Dublin is One of the largest stadiums in Europe with over 80,000 attending games. Irish Football known as Gaelic games is worth seeing as it is a fast physical but skilllful sport.Games are played all year round but the big championship games are played between June and September. Visit the museum also and maybe a tour of the stadium.

I organised a group visit for international university students. I was really impressed by the level of customer service provided by this attraction. I emailed to inquire about a visit, and Georgina got back to me quickly with very comprehensive information. On arrival at the facility we were welcomed and shown inside. The decor inside was really nice and not what I expected from a sports club. The group watched a video about the games and played football and hurling. For the games, we first spent time learning the basic skills and then we played a game with the group divided into two teams. In between we had a break and we were provided with water and biscuits inside along with tea/coffee for whoever wanted it. I spend most weekends visiting attractions with groups and I must say I was really impressed with this one. The coaches were lovely and encouraged everyone to participate. This attraction offers, in my view, excellent value for money. As I mentioned above the customer service was excellent. Photographs were taken for us (which saved me a job of taking them) and sent to me by email which was great. I would highly recommend this attraction and I am looking forward to visiting again.

What an incredible experience. Doesn't matter if you have never played a sport in your life or if you're unfit, this is worth it. Cormac will look after you, he was so patient and made it so much fun. Seriously make sure you do it! Wear joggers and sport type clothing to be as comfortable as possible! Thanks Cormac

Education in Ireland wish to thank Experience Gaelic Games for a fantastic fun-filled afternoon showcasing Irish culture to 45 international students from 10 different countries!. Georgina’s funny and informative introduction at the start was exactly what was needed to explain our sporting roots to so many different cultures. It created an amazing atmosphere of excitement and exhilaration among the students! From our feed-back the students thoroughly enjoyed the sports and the Céilí. We feel that they got to experience what it really means to be Irish!! Thank you, Education in Ireland will definitely use you again, and recommend you !

I have very little interest in Gaelic Games or the GAA as it is known, but I was taken to a Semi-Final Cup match in Croke Park by a friend and was, quite frankly, 'blown-away by the sceptical, colour and the sheer occasion of the thing. It was pure unadulterated tribal warfare and how two opposing camps could demonstrate such skill, agility and pure focused determination and still have the greatest respect for each other, still baffles me. If you are in Dublin and get the chance, you should not miss the opportunity to see a Senior Cup match! (Book well in advance!)

These guys provide an inside track into what it means to be Irish, what really makes Irish peoples blood pump - Gaelic Games! Learn to play hurling or football and about the tradition behind them. This is the real deal and a unique fun experience that will give you memories for life!!! M

If you like sport you will love gaelic games.On final days 82,000 people go to the gamesI would love to have time to fill in all the below And recommend them all but all I can say is Dublin is Heaven.

It was so much fun. Everyone was really friendly. It was a fun way to learn about Irish sports. I had an absolute blast.

If you are only visiting Dublin, do try and get to a GAA match in Croke Park. This is where Irish people, and I mean from the rural grassroots, come to watch their county teams in action. There is nothing quite like the pride in GAA to bring out the craic and banter between rival counties. We are all mixed in together and there is NEVER any trouble. The stadium is awesome and All-Ireland Day is the best, but tickets are like hen's teeth!

Came as a large group for my stag do, and I would definitely recommend it. In fact I'd like to come back again!The activities included Handball, Gaelic Football and Hurling. starting with a demonstration, practice the techniques and then practice matches for each.The whole thing was a took a few hours and was really worth the price.The instructor there was very accommodating with most of us feeling a bit worse for wear from the previous night.We also had some last minute issues with numbers, but they were really understanding, helpful and quick to respond to queries.
