Situated just 20km from Dublin, the Hill of Howth seems a world away from the hustle and bustle of the Irish capital. With its storied past, wide open spaces and abundant marine life (porpoises, seals) Howth gives the impression more of a West of Ireland hideaway than of a ruralised stretch of Dublin's commuter belt. Boasting the best seafood eateries on the East Coast, intimate cafés and traditional pubs, the Peninsula is surrounded by stunning views - soaring cliffs, dense forests, and a real olde worlde harbor area more like a throwback to a bygone era. So join me on a hike around Dublin's best-kept secret (we get the H3 bus from town to the top of Howth Hill where we start the tour beside the Summit Inn - highest pub in Dublin), and view the city in the distance from Howth's lofty 200m peak. We'll then ramble along the cliffs to the screech of seagulls, taking in the fresh salty air before arriving two hours later into the old harbor to finish the day in one of its many bar-restaurants.
I'm happy to customise each tour, in order to give you and your group exactly the kind of tour content and itinerary you want. If there is anything you would like to add to your tour, I will be glad to adapt and / or customise the tour for you. Pickup at Hotel, Cruise Ship or other centrally located point We take the H3 bus or a taxi (ask re supplementary pricing) to the Summit Inn, at the top of Howth Hill Walk 200m to Howth Summit: View Bailey Lighthouse Stroll along the Lower Cliff Hiking Path View Lambay Island, wildlife and nesting birds Arrive in Balscadden Rd - view Yeats Family Cottage Descend further into Howth Harbor Area Adjourn to a traditional pub or restaurant for a Hot Irish Coffee or Seafood Meal Stroll through Howth Market and along the East and West Piers Guests may at this point optionally spend the rest of the evening themselves in Howth sampling Irish Music in one of the pubs or return with me by bus / train / air-conditioned taxi to the city / Hotel / Cruise Ship.
