Experience the grandeur of Dublin, once 'second city of the Empire', with it's beautiful Georgian streets and magnificent public buildings. This is the city which inspired Nobel Laureate poets William Butler Yeats, George Bernard Shaw, and Samuel Beckett, and the childhood playground of Oscar Wilde, the most celebrated wit of his time. Dublin is also central to the work of James Joyce, author of Ulysses, considered by many literary experts to be the finest novel ever written in the English language. Come with me as we explore the city, before heading south along Dublin Bay towards Wicklow, the 'Garden of Ireland'. Our first stop is a garden of some renown - the breathtaking Powerscourt Garden, voted the 3rd Most Beautiful Garden in the World by National Geographic. After Lunch, we cross the Wicklow Mountains to the tranquility of Glendalough, a beautiful glacial valley where St Kevin established his monastery in 555AD. Walk among the ruins, and stroll to the heavenly Upper Lake, before heading back to Dublin
This tour takes about 8 hours, but can be tailored to suit your wishes. I will collect you at your hotel or cruise ship, or whatever location suits you. I suggest starting between 9am and 10am so that you are back at your hotel in plenty of time to relax before dinner, but the exact collection and return times can be tailored to your wishes. We start our day with a sightseeing tour of Dublin, with the option to stop for a short stroll at any point. We then head south along Dublin Bay, through 'Dublin's Riviera' and into Wicklow, where we stop to avail of lunch if desired, and a stroll around the "World's 3rd Most Beautiful Garden" as voted by National Geographic. A 40 minute drive across the Wicklow Mountains brings us to the ruins of St Kevin's Monastic City, site of Christian worship for 1, 500 years! Carved out by glaciers during the Ice Age, this magical valley abounds in history, but it is the extraordinary tranquility which makes it an unforgettable place to visit. Return time to Dublin is 80 minutes.
