Welcome to Dublin - home to some of the friendliest, wittiest hosts you'll ever meet. Take a private Dublin tour with a knowledgeable local guide and get ready to be charmed by one of Europe's liveliest capitals.

Begin your day with a stroll through the lovely grounds of Trinity College, established in 1592, making sure to visit the beautiful Book of Kells at the Old Library. If you enjoy beer (as the Irish do!) tour the Guinness Storehouse in St. James Gate Brewery. Your guide will ensure you enjoy a pint of the famous brew at one of the city's many colourful pubs, where you can also listen to foot-tapping traditional Irish music.

Ireland's compact size means there are many daytrip opportunities from Dublin. Your guide would be happy to take you to Newgrange, a 5000 year old neolithic burial tomb and UNESCO World Heritage Site, or if you fancy a hike, perhaps the Wicklow Mountains.

Your Dublin tour will give you a glimpse of this fabulous city, through the eyes of a local.
