Tour description
Ireland is known for it's music, and Dublin is no exception!
Join an experienced tour guide and musician on a journey the city's musicial heritage. We will visit sites throughout the city centre dedicated to, and associated with, many of Dublin's most well-known musicians. These range from Donegal blues-guitar legend Rory Gallagher, to Thin Lizzy frontman 'The Ace with the Bass' Phil Lynott, and golden-voiced singer Sinead O'Connor.
At each location, the tour guide will perform a live rendition of a song from that artist. After all, the best way to experience the music of Dublin is to listen to it!
This tour is approximately 1.5 hours long. We will start just off O'Connell Street and finish beside St. Stephen's Green on the south side. A recommendation list of the best spots to hear live music in the city will also be provided.
