dublin walking tours
My 2.5 hour Dublin walking tours show you the major attractions of the Irish capital, intertwined with stories about the city’s colourful characters and gives you further ideas about things to do in Dublin in your free time.
I have worked in Trinity College, the Vatican, Rome City, Glasnevin Cemetery and the General Post Office in Dublin and I work for Rick Steves in Dublin and throughout Ireland.
dublin walking tour
I trace the history of Dublin from stone age roots, to Viking town, second city of the British Empire to modern European capital.
I discuss the key people in Dublin’s history such as Saint Patrick, Strongbow, Wolfe Tone, Oscar Wilde, James Joyce.
I meet you in the reception of your hotel, or another place in Dublin you’d like, on a date and time that suits you before walking with you around the Irish capital.
Dublin Tourist Attractions
Sites visited on this tour include: Trinity College Dublin, the Book of Kells, Parliament House Dublin, Temple Bar, Dublin Castle and City Hall.
This route is compact and all the sites are within 2 miles of each other.
I include recommendations for lunch, dinner and bars for good pint of Guinness or Irish music for later on.
I make sure you know how to get back to your hotel at at the end of the tour.
Dublin Sightseeing
I can include other sites if literature or music are more your things.
I include stops for bathrooms and coffee/tea/water. Photos are permitted everywhere except at the Book of Kells.
I organise skip the line tickets so we waste no time waiting in line.
More than half the tour is indoors so I do my best to keep you out of the rain, which isn’t as bad as the rumours.
