Spending a day in Dublin

There are so many ways to spend a day in Dublin it’s nearly impossible to make suggestions. However, the best way to see as much as possible in a short time is to take one of the sightseeing tours mentioned above, e.g. the City Hop-On-Hop-Off Bus Tour. This can be done in one hour if you decide not to avail of the hop-on-hop-off facility, and shows you the majority of the city’s historical sights.

With 25 stops at Dublin’s top visitor attractions and discounts off the admission of many of them (on receipt of your ticket) there is no better way to enjoy this City. Your tour route includes Guinness Storehouse, Smithfield, Dublinia, Dublin Castle, The National Gallery and St Patrick’s Cathedral and many more.

For more information or to buy tickets, log onto Dublin Bus or Irish City Tours.

Alternatively you can drop into a Dublin Tourism offices to purchase the tickets or buy them on board the buses.

Grab some lunch in one of the city’s beautiful restaurants, maybe in Brownes Restaurant on St. Stephen’s Green, before hitting the shops and flexing your credit cards to your heart’s content! 

If you are staying the night in Dublin, it’s an absolute must to catch a show in one of Dublin’s beautiful theatres, followed by a pint or two in one (or more!) or the city’s pubs. You’ll be spoiled for choice!
