At the indicated time, we will meet at the Oscar Wilde statue located in Merrion Square.

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.

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.
