2019/2020 Getaway: Dublin Delight 5 Days/4 Nights

Day 1: Ashling Hotel – Arrival Day
  Your adventure will begin when you meet your local host in the lobby of your hotel at 2:00 pm. Your guide will get you started, offering plenty of tips to point you in the right direction and giving you the know-how to maximize your time in the city. You can get around today on Dublin's light rail system using your LUAS ticket.

Day 2: Guinness Storehouse and Independent Exploration

Your local host will be in the hotel this morning to help you plan the rest of your trip in the city. Your trip includes three days of access to Dublin’s “Hop-On, Hop-Off” tour bus to see the entire city, stepping off as you please to see the sites you want to see. You might choose to visit the Guinness Storehouse today; admission is included with your trip. The Guinness Storehouse, one of Ireland's most popular sights, is a seven-story attraction telling the compelling story of the iconic Irish beer, starting with the founding of the brewery in 1759. The building's design is stylish and modern, the history is fascinating, and the view of the city from the Gravity Bar on the top floor is spectacular.

Today you will be totally free to explore the city as you wish, using your Hop-On, Hop-Off bus ticket. You will also have a voucher you can use to visit your choice of one of these top attractions:

  • Teeling Distillery: Tour one of Dublin's newest distilleries to experience the sights, sounds and smells of whiskey production. Established in 2015, Teeling is located in the Liberties, the historic heart of old Dublin.
  • EPIC the Irish Emigration Museum: The world's only fully digital museum, EPIC Ireland tells the story of the 10 million people who emigrated from Ireland over the centuries, and how they changed the world. EPIC was named Europe's Leading Tourist Attraction at the 2019 World Travel Awards.
  • GPO Witness History: Dublin's General Post Office played a key role in one of the most pivotal moments of Irish history: the Easter Rising of 1916. The museum in the GPO brings this era to life.
