Dublin

Day 1: Arrival in Dublin

Departure from Luxembourg to Dublin. In the morning, you will take a guided city tour that will lead you through the Parliament building, Trinity College, and past many historical buildings. In the afternoon, a visit to the Guinness Storehouse brewery is planned. An authentic Dublin experience wouldn't be complete without this dark beverage. The Guinness Storehouse provides a fascinating insight into the world of this Irish classic. The multimedia museum is located near the city center and is part of the original brewery where Arthur Guinness began brewing beer in 1759. Despite initial skeptics, his work paid off. The day ends with dinner and an overnight stay in Dublin.

Day 2: Dublin

After breakfast, a guided tour of Kilmainham Gaol prison awaits you, an important site in the struggle for Irish independence. The prison was permanently closed in 1924 and reopened in 1960 by Republican veterans as a museum to commemorate the uprisings against the British in Ireland. After lunch, you'll explore Dublin Castle, which starkly contrasts its sumptuous state rooms with the medieval underground. Next, you'll head to the Temple Bar district, the vibrant heart of Dublin's social scene, lined with galleries, shops, and numerous pubs. In the evening, you'll attend a performance at the Abbey Theatre, Ireland's national theater, which plays a central role in the country's dramatic history. Then, enjoy a final meal. We recommend The Winding Stair, a restaurant located in a refurbished bookstore, serving dishes as delicious as the surrounding literature. Night in Dublin.

Day 3: Dublin & Return

Start your final day with a stroll through Phoenix Park, one of Europe's largest fortified urban parks. Keep an eye out for the herd of wild deer who call this green oasis home. For lunch, you can visit the rooftop restaurant-bar at the Marker Hotel, where you can not only enjoy stunning views but also indulge in first-class cuisine. Take one last walk in Dublin before heading to the airport to return to Luxembourg.
