About Us
Our Mission
Empowering those affected by homelessness by training them as walking tour guides of Dublin.
What We Do
Secret Street Tours is a nonprofit social enterprise with a clear goal: to empower people affected by homelessness by training them to become skilled walking tour guides. Through this, we provide them with a platform to share their personal stories while showcasing the rich history of Dublin.
Our training program focuses on building confidence through workshops in public speaking, customer service, and route planning. Collaborating with professional tour guides, we create unique tours that blend Dublin’s history with personal narratives.
Our tours offer more than just a journey through the streets of Dublin—they provide a socially responsible and immersive experience. Each guide brings their unique perspective, sharing not only the city's hidden gems but also their own meaningful connections to these places.
