Dublin
On arrival you're met by your private driver and driven to your hotel. After settling in visit Trinity College to see the famous Book of Kells and discover Dublin’s green spaces, museums, and pubs on your own.
Dublin
Travel north with your driver-guide to explore Newgrange, a prehistoric passage tomb that predates the Egyptian pyramids and England’s Stonehenge and is featured heavily in Irish folklore. Continue venturing through the ancient Boyne Valley, visiting the ruins of the Hill of Slane and Monasterboice, an early Christian monastery with your guide.
