“The 7 Day Irish Explorer Tour was worth every. single. penny! Our guide, Kerry and driver Wayne were excellent, the sights were just jaw-dropping and we had a little Irish luck with the weather - it rained as we drove, and was mostly dry and clear as we explored. I can't wait for my next trip with the tour operator!”

Plan your Dublin trips ahead, as popular attractions in the city can get crowded, especially in the peak season. Booking tickets at least two to four weeks in advance can save time and avoid disappointment.
While on a Dublin food tour, make sure to try the local cuisine, including traditional dishes such as Irish stew, colcannon, and soda bread, as well as fresh seafood available in the city's many seafood restaurants.
Pack a raincoat or umbrella and comfortable footwear when traveling in Dublin, where the weather can turn at any time.
