About this tour

Take a walk with us through the streets of the Irish capital to get the sense of its history and mentality of its people. We will take you on a journey through centuries, from the Roman times, when Dublin was called Hibernia, the land of winter, through the British occupation to liberation in the 20th century, finishing with stories of the recent remarkable transformation of the city and its inhabitants. We will get you acquainted with the most curious stories associated with Dublin. Starting at the Spire, the city’s most useless and visible monument, we will walk together across a unique bridge that’s wider than it is longer, discover how St. Patrick liberated the island from snakes that were never actually there, and find out why Ireland’s premier university – Trinity College – sued the creators of Star Wars movies. We will pass through the heart of entertainment life, the Temple Bar district, finishing by the least ‘castle-like’ castle of all the castles you have ever seen.

Join us on this outstanding Irish adventure and exploration of Dublin. We guarantee an extraordinary journey through the history and culture of the city and the nation, topped off with amusing anecdotes and delicious recommendations of Irish specialities!
