Description
This day trip to Wicklow blends Irish culture, history and the natural world to give you a variety of wonderful experiences. It starts at the Molly Malone statue in Dublin and travels to some remarkable places.
Situated in the "valley of the two lakes", Glendalough is a historic gem surrounded by breathtaking scenery. This monastery was founded in the sixth century by Saint Kevin. Walking through the remains of the ancient town, visitors can discover Ireland's spiritual and historical heritage. You can also enjoy lunch in a nearby restaurant.
Hollywood, the former Californian colony that bears his name, combines historical intrigue with picturesque views. A playful tribute to its well-known predecessor, Wicklow's Hollywood sign is well worth seeing.
The demonstration of a sheepdog on a typical Irish farm highlights various aspects of farm life, such as raising sheep and growing organic vegetables. The demonstration of a shepherd using his dogs to guide his sheep is the highlight and gives a unique insight into day-to-day activities in Wicklow.
The stops on this tour are all designed to offer visitors an immersive view of the natural beauty, rich history and farming lifestyle of the Wicklow area.
