Full description
Next, we head to a cozy stop offering golden, crispy delights with a festive twist. As we savor these warm bites, we’ll wander through Dublin’s lively streets, now filled with holiday lights, cheerful crowds, and the unmistakable buzz of the season.
Our journey continues with a stroll across the iconic Ha’penny Bridge, beautifully illuminated for the holidays. Built in 1816, this pedestrian crossing once charged a half-penny toll and remains a charming symbol of Dublin’s connection between past and present, especially magical this time of year.
On the far side of the River Liffey, we visit a delightful bakery known for its warm, freshly made donuts. Paired with the crisp winter air, these comforting treats highlight Dublin’s evolving food culture, blending tradition with a festive, modern flair.
We finish our adventure at Offbeat Donuts, where bold, creative flavors take on a seasonal spin. As we indulge in our final bites, surrounded by holiday cheer, we’ll reflect on a journey filled with history, flavor, and the warmth that makes Dublin truly special during the festive season.

Reviews
The tour was quite long and it was difficult to keep the kids engaged. The donut store was the best stop where we got to choose a donut. At the rest of the stops the food items were pre ordered and we didn’t get a choice which was a bit disappointing. I was also unhappy that the tour ended at a different location to the starting point - we were handed a map and had to find our own way back. Having never been to Cork before, this wasn’t particularly easy and we had to run to catch our train back to Cobh.
It was a pleasant tour our guides new the area very well
Kat was a great guide. The donuts were delicious and she also included a lot of history of Toronto. The walk was an easy pace and gave us time to prepare for the next round. She provided us with other places to taste Toronto food and there was time to grab some of that food too. We loved the tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Toronto!
