Full description

Enjoy this perfect introduction to Dublin on a Hop on Hop off Big Bus tour. The greatest way to travel around and learn about Irish culture is to sit back and unwind on an open-top double decker sightseeing bus while listening to interesting and engaging audio commentary. The bus route is intended to take you on a fascinating tour through Dublin's rich history and everyday life, giving you the chance to get off and further explore the city's most famous and historic monuments and museums as you pass by them. The duration of the entire Dublin sightseeing tour is 1h40min. Many customers choose to do one full loop to see the city and decide where they want to hop off on the next loop around, but it's completely up to you how you plan your day and visit. The Irish White House, the Dublin Zoo, the Jameson Distillery, which produces Dublin's best Irish whiskey, and the General Post Office, which still bears the scars of artillery fire on its exterior, are all places where you can get off and visit during the course of the day. Buses arrive every 20 to 30 minutes so you have time to Hop-on and off at your leisure.

You'll be warmly welcomed by Guinness ambassadors before embarking on a 90-minute self-guided tour to learn about the history of Guinness in Dublin, the provenance of its ingredients, and its cultural impact across time. Tickets also include entry to the Gravity Bar, where you can take in the view over Dublin City and enjoy a pint of Guinness (18+) or a soft drink.
