Things To Do
Cliffs of Moher
Leave Dublin behind for a day and experience the extreme beauty and culture of Ireland on a guided tour. This landscape really is a "must see" on a visit to Ireland! Tip: if you plan to book a tour with a group, it is best to have one person book tickets for your entire group to ensure that you are all on the same tour. There's many options for booking and it is easy to book something different than the rest of your crew.
Giant's Causeway
Take a day trip from Dublin to Northern Ireland to visit this national nature reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Giant's Causeway is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic fissure eruption. It is located on the north coast of Northern Ireland, about three miles northeast of the town of Bushmills.
Ring of Kerry
Considered one of the finest drives in the world, this scene-stealing route covers rolling green hills and sparkling lakes. Sheep bleating and cows grazing in patchwork fields. Pristine golden strands giving way to jaw-dropping cliffs. This treasure trove in the southwest coast of Ireland really has it all, which is why people come from far and wide to see the Ring of Kerry. Guided tours are available from Cork, Galway, and Dublin among others.
Wicklow Mountains
Wicklow Mountains National Park is situated just south of Dublin and has the distinction of being the largest of Ireland’s six National Parks. A great day-trip for those looking to do some hiking and see a more rural and scenic view of the country. Guided tours departing from Dublin are available.

Traditional Irish Dance
Ireland is synonymous with dancing, and a visit to Dublin isn’t complete without taking in a live Irish dancing show. Thanks to Riverdance, which brought Irish Dancing to the world stage, it’s true that a night at an Irish dancing show is always a thrilling way to spend an evening, especially in Dublin. The link attached will take you to a page with many different options to catch one of these theatrical shows around town.
Phoenix Park
The Phoenix Park is one of the largest enclosed public parks in any capital city in Europe. It was originally formed as a royal hunting park in the 1660s and opened to the public in 1747. A large herd of fallow deer still remain to this day. The park is also home to the Zoological Gardens, Áras an Uachtaráin, and Victorian flower gardens. The main gates of the park at Parkgate Street and Castleknock Gate are open 24 hours.
Galway & Cork
If you plan to venture to some Irish cities outside of Dublin while on your trip, these are two that we suggest! When in Galway, visit the Cliffs of Moher or from Cork take a tour of the Ring of Kerry.
