Attractions and Activities: Trinity College Dublin (Free entry) Visting the campus. If you want to visit the Old Library and Book of Kells, please book our 5hr tour '(Nearly!) All of Dublin in 5 hours'. Access to the campus is limited to groups of 8 or fewer unless tickets for the Old Library are purchased in advance (these are Trinity's rules). Started in 1592 as a university only for Protestants, Trinity remained an institution of resentment for Ireland's Catholic majority up until at least 1970. Throughout the centuries, this fine university nurtured such aspiring students as Oscar Wilde, Jonathan Swift, Bram Stoker and Samuel Beckett, the greatest playwright of the 20th century. 10 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: Trinity College Dublin (At your own expense) You can coordinate with your guide to book the tickets in advance 40 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: Temple Bar (Free entry) Stroll the cobbled streets of the famous Temple Bar area. Your guide will show you the real local spots (street art, bohemian shops) and hidden gems of what is a overty touristy area. 15 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: Dublin Castle (Free entry) We will explore the grounds of Dublin Castle (upper and lower courtyards, Chapel Royal, Dubh Linn Gardens) without needing to explore any interiors, which can only be availed of through an official Dublin Castle tour 15 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: Christ Church Cathedral (At your own expense) Visting the outside. Christ Church Cathedral or/and St Patrick's Cathedral Although a wooden church was built here in ca. 1030, and there was likely a pagan shrine before that, Christchurch as a stone structure began in the 1180s and has been restored and changed numerous times since. The neo-gothic architecture makes Christchurch, arguably, Dublin's most beautiful complex. The vast crypt underneath the cathedral deserves particular attention for its size, interesting curious and the fact that it hosted a pub, distillery and... brothel (!) in the 18th century. 15 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: Ha'penny Bridge (Free entry) Cross the famous Ha'Penny Bridge, one of Dublin's icons. Take look up the river towards the Guinness Brewery (maybe you'll detect the aroma of hops boiling) or down the river towards the Custom House and the modern Docklands area. Or simply stop to observe the lovers' locks. 5 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: National Museum of Ireland, Kildare Street (Free entry) Closed on Mondays. On this tour we have time to EITHER do National Museum (free entry) or Book of Kells (paid entry). Coordinate with your guide after booking.

Attractions and Activities: Leinster House (Free entry) Leinster House 10 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: O'Connell Monument (Free entry) Daniel O'Connell was arguably the first man to prove to the masses that civil disobedience and peaceful resistance could be effective. A huge hero for Irish people, having secured Catholic Emancipation, he's nick-named 'The Liberator' and the main street of our capital city is justifiably named after him. 7 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: Bank of Ireland (Free entry How to visit:No indoor visits) Old Parliament Building Dublin was the 2nd city of the British Empire in the 18th century, and we have the subtle patriotism of the Irish-born politicians of the institution to thank. Today, Dublin's architectural landscape is ornamented by an abundance of buildings from this period, making it look much older than Paris and London.
Attractions and Activities: St Stephen's Green (Free entry) Gifted to the city in 1880 by a member of the Guinness family, Stephen's Green remains much-appreciated by Dubliners today - it's probably their favourite piece of the city. We'll stroll through the lush verdure along the curved Victorian walkways and keep our eyes peeled for that most-rare of animals - an Irish person sunbathing! 10 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: Grafton Street (Free entry) Don't let the brands and blatant consumerism fool you, Grafton still has its charm. In fact, Grafton street is one of the last bastions of old Dublin left. Admire the flower ladies, enjoy the buskers (street musicians) as you head towards Bewleys Café, Ireland's oldest and biggest café, built in 1927. 5 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: An Post, General Post Office (Free entry) It was outside this impressive building on Easter Monday when Padraig Pearse read the Declaration of Irish Independence and he, together with his 1600 comrades, led a rebellion that shock an empire. The most under-rated site in Dublin for tourists, the GPO retains all its historical potency for Dubliners and Irish people, but most tourists never learn why this should be on their top 5 list of sites to visit. 15 min(s)
Attractions and Activities: City Hall (Free entry) One of the key locations of 1916 Easter Rising and an example of Dublin's 18th century architecture. We can enter the building as long as there is not a private event occuring. 10 min(s)
