The Hybrid Tour : Highlights plus off-the-beaten-track way to see Dublin in one day

This tour promises to give you an experience getting to know Dublin city with a Dubliner, in 6 hours, with a lunch break and possibly a pint of Guinness , in one of my favorite Dublin places in the middle. I will show you the Dublin I grew up in and love. There will be time to stop into some places of interest that do not have entrance fees, as well as stop for lunch in one of my favorite places in the city. Dublin has a wealth of interesting stories in her 1000+year history - which as a history enthusiast, I will be delighted to tell you all - as well as give you an insight into the contemporary scene in Dublin - a vibrant European capital city. This tour is a great way to see many of Dublin's highlights but also I will share the lesser-known streets, alleyways, cafés, shops and other places, that mean something to me and my family as Dubliners. The itinerary is flexible, for any changes please let me know.

This tour starts at the front entrance of Trinity College ( because it's gorgeous! ) It then goes towards the river Liffey and over O'Connell bridge to the 'northside'. Here you will amble down Dublin's widest street and see and talk about some important monuments such as the GPO and the 'Liberator' Mr. Daniel O'Connell. Walking up-river towards Dublin's most-photographed bridge The Ha'penny Bridge and cross the river once again to the 'southside'. Medieval Dublin's vibe is alive and well in the cobblestoned Temple Bar. We will walk through this vibrant zone and on to the impressive City Hall. Next is, 'Dubh Linn' gardens, walking through the grounds of Dublin Castle to get there. Near the Grafton street area now and it is time to stop for lunch and or a pint if Guinness , in one of my favourite Dublin spots. Refreshed we head off again towards St Stephen's green and Georgian Dublin as well as the National gallery, museum and library as they are all within a stones throw if you know the right route!
