A nice easy way to tour the city is the lazy bike tour. This is an electric bike tour that takes you to all the highlights of the town. I'm pretty lazy so I like that one for an insider's guide to Dublin deck The Le Cool Dublin tour. This cultural experience takes you to creative businesses run in innovative spaces in the downtown heart of Dublin. One of the coolest areas and definitely my favourite is the Temple Bar you can head there had some traditional Irish pubs and grab some great food . A Saturday morning wouldn't be complete in Dublin without a visit to the Temple Bar food market here and we're at the Temple Bar Oyster Bar, why not have some oysters and some wine Your in Dublin, who cares if it's before noon right? Sliante Come to Trinity College another great thing to do when you visit Dublin is to go to the Book of Kells and Trinity College this is one of the oldest most pristine book on earth and they changed the pages every couple of days so you get to see a new page so you can go back again and again. I would say the most iconic landmark in Dublin is definitely the half penny bridge this was the first bridge to join the two sides of Dublin over the Liffey River. If you like Gaelic Sports, you have to go to Croke Park, it is the third largest stadium in all of Europe and you can take a stadium tour on the top at the Etihad skywalk to see it from a bird's eye view. And don't forget to check out the hurling museum in there and try your hand at hitting that slitter like I did. For a history lesson from Dublin's Darker Days, Visit the Kilmainham Gaol The Prison Tour Begins It would be awful to be incarcerated here the living conditions were so cramped A great hidden gem is to go to Sweeney's apothecary, this is a really cool store with all kinds of memorabilia from the turn of the 19th century and you can join him reading James Joyce. And there's a lot of literary history in Dublin as well. Oscar Wilde actually has his house right they're not far from Swenys. You can stand by his statue and actually see him looking at his childhood home. One of the first places to check out when you're in Dublin is the Little Museum of Dublin This is great 'cause it is a crowd-sourced collection of a lot of the history that Dubliners went through from the 1800's all the way up into the present. My favourite is the U2 exhibit on the top floor you've gotta go in there and say hi to Bono. when you're in Dublin make sure you go to the pub and listen to some traditional Irish music or check out comedy show, there's some really good ones right in the Temple Bar area. So those are some of our favourite things as well as some hidden gems that you can use the next time you go and explore Dublin. want more travel tips to make sure you subscribe to our channel right in the link below.
