Overview of your Dublin tour:

Dublin is one of the oldest cities in Europe, with the Greeks having documented its existence (as 'Eblana') as far back as 130CE. Indeed it's that combination of the old co-existing comfortably alongside the new that seems to define Dublin's particular style. Known as the 'Tech Capital of Europe' for the many IT companies which have set up here, Dublin is also the home of Guinness. . . and any of 751 pubs, where you can have a quiet pint of the famous 'blackstuff'. As we wend our way through the streets of Dublin I'll tell you about the city, which later became the bustling centre of 18th century Georgian grandeur and was ultimately the stage upon which the 'terrible beauty' of Irish independence was born in the 1916 Rising. So join me on a journey through the highways and byways of Dublin; hear the words of Behan, O'Casey, Swift and Wilde echoing through the streets, and immerse yourself with me in the humor and history of this special place we call the 'Fair City'.

Meeting location

Harbour Road, Dún Laoghaire, County Dublin, Ireland

Cruise ships arrive into either Dublin Port, or Dun Laoghaire Harbour (pron: 'Dun Leary', some 30 minutes south of the city). Wherever your liner comes in, I will meet you off the ship, either where it is moored, or if it is anchored in Scotsman's Bay, off the tender boat that brings you ashore. I'll be wearing a green tour guide lanyard.

  • You can request a different meeting location (for example, your hotel) during the checkout process.
