Unveiling Heritage
An exploration of Dublin’s literary heritage, revolutionary history, and whiskey traditions.
Take a private day tour following the footsteps of Ireland’s greatest writers, as we delve into the nation’s fight for independence, and savour the flavours of Irish whiskey.
This one-day private tour offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and taste. It includes a private driver-guide, transportation, and insurance.
Kilmainham Gaol
We’ll begin the day with a visit to Kilmainham Gaol, a former prison with a significant role in Irish history.
A guided tour, not to be missed, will reveal the stories of the people who served time here, teach you the history of the 1916 Easter Rising and we’ll see the cells where the leaders of the rebellion were held.
Book of Kells
Driving through Georgian Dublin will bring us to our next stop, Trinity College, Ireland’s oldest university, which was built in 1592 – it is host to the world-famous Book of Kells, a beautifully illuminated manuscript dating from the 9th century. We’ll also get a chance to stroll through the historic Long Room filled with ancient books and manuscripts.
Traditional Irish pubs
You’ll be spoilt for choice when we stop for lunch at one of Dublin’s many traditional Irish pubs in the area, experiencing one of our many native dishes like the traditional Irish stew or fish ‘n’ chips.
Dublin Writers Museum
After lunch, we’ll head to the Dublin Writers Museum to celebrate the city’s literary legacy, exploring exhibits on famous Irish writers like James Joyce, Samuel Beckett, and Oscar Wilde.
Jameson Distillery
The historic Jameson Distillery is where the day ends, we’ll enjoy a guided tour that takes us through the whiskey-making process, from grain to glass. And participate in a whiskey-tasting session as we learn about the rich heritage of Jameson whiskey.
