Description
Escape the city and discover the beauty of Ireland’s “Garden County” on this guided day tour from Dublin. Begin your day by meeting your guide in Dublin and boarding a comfortable coach for a scenic journey into the Wicklow Mountains, famous for their rolling landscapes, lakes, and film-worthy views.
Stop at the iconic Guinness Lake (Lough Tay), famous for its dark waters and white sandy shoreline that resemble a pint of Guinness, for stunning photos before continuing to Glendalough, one of Ireland’s most important early Christian monastic sites. Explore the ancient ruins, round tower, and peaceful lakes on a guided walking tour while learning about the history of St. Kevin’s settlement, then enjoy free time to take in the scenery at your own pace.
On the return journey, relax on a panoramic Dublin city highlights tour, passing famous landmarks including Phoenix Park while your guide shares stories of the capital’s rich history and culture.
