Dublin

Ireland’s capital, Dublin, has a growing reputation as one of Europe’s most worthwhile destinations due to the sheer number of must-sees in the city. Explore the Phoenix Park’s walled gardens, wander the cloistered corridors of Trinity College, and learn about the Emerald Isle’s turbulent history at Kilmainham Gaol. To see how Ireland’s favourite drink is made, take the Guinness Storehouse tour and enjoy panoramic views from the top. Soaking up the ambience on Temple Bar’s restaurant-lined streets is essential, as is ducking into a pub for some all-day traditional music and plenty of “craic”, or fun.
