5 days in Dublin Itinerary

A history spanning over a thousand years, vibrant nightlife, and a mix of Georgian and modern architecture make Dublin a popular European tourist destination.

Step off the beaten path and head to Glendalough Cathedral and Trim Castle. You'll find plenty of places to visit near Dublin: Powerscourt Gardens and House (in Enniskerry) and Bru na Boinne (in Donore). The adventure continues: see the interesting displays at Kilmainham Gaol Museum, take an in-depth tour of The Jeanie Johnston: An Irish Famine Story, get a dose of the wild on a nature and wildlife tour, and admire the striking features of Christ Church Cathedral.
