Tour description

At the indicated time, we will meet at the Oscar Wilde statue located in Merrion Square. We are situated in one of the most iconic Georgian squares of the capital, famous for its ivy-covered buildings and timeless charm. Once we arrive, we will walk through this small and charming park located right in front of the house of the famous Irish writer.

We will take the opportunity to talk about the sculptures present in this green area until we reach the statue of Michael Collins, a protagonist of the Irish War of Independence. Would you like to know more? We will talk about it on the day of the tour!

We will continue delving into the city's history by passing by the Defense Forces Memorial and the headquarters of the Irish Parliament, where we will reveal the story of the famous Duke of Wellington. You won't stop learning! Here, we will also start to see the famous colored doors and then stop to see the most famous door of Merrion Square. Do you know where it is?

Afterward, we will arrive at Fitzwilliam Square, another Georgian-style square where we will stop to capture none other than the most photographed door in Dublin: door number 46. Near the square, we will stop in front of O'Donoghues Pub, where great Dubliners began their brilliant careers. Who can resist the temptation to sing Finnegan's Wake or The Wild Rover?

Later, we will delve into Stephen's Green Park, one of the most beautiful and photographed green areas in the city, and we will stop at the Famine Memorial, where we will tell you about the terrible famine of 1845. The sculptures that make up the memorial are truly impressive!

Then we will walk along Dawson Street, stopping at the Mansion House, the residence of the Lord Mayor of Dublin, and we will see from the outside St. Anne's Church, where a famous Irish writer celebrated his wedding... Do you know? Who are we talking about?

Finally, we will cross the elegant Grafton Street until we reach the statue of Molly Malone, where we will conclude our tour of Dublin's Georgian Quarter two or three hours after departure.
