Description
Our tour includes the following sites in Dublin. All admission tickets are included in the tour fee! Kilmainham Gaol: This historic former prison is known for its significant role in Irish history. Built in 1796, it housed many prominent Irish revolutionaries, including leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising, who were executed within its walls. The prison was notorious for its harsh conditions, with men, women, and even children imprisoned there. Kilmainham Gaol was decommissioned in 1924 and later transformed into a museum. Today, it stands as a powerful symbol of Ireland's struggle for independence, offering guided tours that explore its dark history and the key figures who shaped the nation’s path to freedom. Glasnevin Cemetery: This is Ireland’s largest and most historically significant cemetery. Established in 1832, it serves as the final resting place for over 1.5 million people, including many prominent figures in Irish history. The cemetery is known for its stunning Victorian monuments and graves of famous individuals such as Daniel O’Connell, Michael Collins, and Éamon de Valera. It offers guided tours that explore Ireland’s political and cultural history, alongside the stories of everyday citizens. Glasnevin also houses a museum, providing insights into Ireland’s past, its famous residents, and the social and political movements that shaped the nation. The Gravediggers Pub: Officially known as John Kavanagh's, The Gravediggers is one of Dublin’s oldest and most iconic pubs. Located next to Glasnevin Cemetery, it has been serving patrons since 1833 and remains in the Kavanagh family for generations. The pub earned its nickname because gravediggers from the cemetery would visit after work. Known for its authentic, old-world charm, The Gravediggers has no modern frills like TVs or music, making it a beloved spot for those seeking a traditional Irish pub experience. It’s famous for its perfectly poured pints of Guinness and hearty Irish stew, making it a must-visit in Dublin. This is the pub where we stop for a delicious lunch at the end of our tour. Please note that only cash payments are accepted, so no credit cards allowed.Includes
