Ireland · CHRISTMAS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 2 christmas tours worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Ride through Dublin for 80 minutes on a 1960s vintage double-decker bus while enjoying tea, coffee, hot chocolate, soup, a Christmas sandwich, mince pies, and afternoon tea treats. An English-speaking guide points out City Hall, Trinity College, and other buildings lit for the season.
Join Paddywagon Tours on December 25 for a four-hour bus trip from Dublin to Glendalough and the Wicklow Mountains. Guide Aaron has led the outing with Irish Christmas music and a sunrise drive. You’ll have time to walk by the lakeshore and through wooded paths before returning downtown by lunchtime.
“Perfect weather, amazing driver and guide (Aaron), with the addition of Irish Christmas music and a lovely sunrise drive.”
Start on a coast road, at a castle gate or on a bar stool.
