Description

Begin your journey at the famous Molly Malone statue, where you'll hear the real story behind the city's most legendary fishmonger. From there, wind your way through streets that have bustled with life for over a thousand years. Step into the majestic grounds of Dublin Castle, the former seat of British rule in Ireland, and uncover centuries of power, plotting, and ceremony. Your guide will lead you through the peaceful Dubhlinn Gardens, located on the very site of the 'black pool' that gave Dublin its name. Prepare to be awed by two of Ireland's most spectacular cathedrals: the magnificent St. Patrick's Cathedral and the ancient Christ Church Cathedral, with its deep connections to the city's Viking past. As you meander through the oldest parts of the city, past the last remaining section of the old city walls on Cook Street, your guide will bring Dublin's medieval world to life. The tour finishes with a stroll through the world-famous cobbled lanes of Temple Bar, where your guide will leave you with the best insider tips for finding authentic live music, a perfect pint of Guinness, and the best local food.
