Dublin: castle, cathedrals and the Rising
Dublin · IE
from 32 € per person
You will walk through Dublin's old centre. You will stand at the gate of a castle that ruled Ireland for 700 years. You will see the one tower of that castle still standing. You will see two medieval cathedrals, a few streets apart. You will hear how the 1916 Rising began. You will see the university that keeps Ireland's most famous book. Everything is close. We walk slowly. We stop whenever you want.
