Can't recommend this experience enough! Even if you don't love gin this was a delightful time. From start to finish we were entertained and made to feel of family as we learned a bit, drank plenty, and laughed our way through the afternoon

Booked this for a party of 7. Brilliant experience. Interesting back story of how the gin school came to be told to us by the lovely Adam. We had 2 lovely gins and a sample of tequila.

A must for anyone looking for a unique experience w...

Amazing experience,really interesting to find out about the tribes journey. Great night for gin lovers. Paul was brilliant and kept us well oiled. Nice option for a cheese and cold meat platter. Galway's the gift that keeps giving. Not forgetting your own bottle of gin to take home! Great stuff.

I have to say I was a bit skeptical with such high ratings it looked too good to be true. Went on a Friday night and was lucky enough to be the only person who booked that evening.
