Operated by Day Tours Unplugged · Dublin 11, County Dublin
Dublin, the vibrant capital of Ireland, pulses with rich history, architectural charm, and verdant landscapes just beyond its urban frame. Day Tours Unplugged offers a private, full-day journey designed for visitors eager to capture the city’s highlights paired with serene countryside escapes—all within a single, carefully tailored itinerary.
This personalized tour is anchored by the convenience of an air-conditioned minivan and the expertise of a Failte Ireland-approved guide, offering a seamless blend of comfort and inside knowledge. Begin the day winding through the heart of Dublin, from the historic grandeur of Trinity College and its fabled Book of Kells to the soaring spires of St. Patrick’s and Christ Church Cathedrals. Alongside iconic Georgian squares and government buildings, your route also passes the symbolic General Post Office, a landmark steeped in Ireland’s revolutionary past.
After immersing yourself in the storied streets of the city, the journey can veer south into County Wicklow—known as the "Garden of Ireland"—or head north into historic County Meath. These rural regions offer a sharp contrast with lush green hills, ancient sites, and quiet country roads. Whether it’s a stop at Guinness Brewery or a leisurely wander through Phoenix Park, the tour adapts to your interests.
