Discover the historic North Side of Dublin, exploring the streets which have seen so much of Ireland's tumultuous history and visiting the area's most fascinating landmarks.

Tour Details

We'll start this free walking tour of the Northern Ireland conflict at The Spire Monument, where we'll meet at 3 pm. Want to find out how this impressive landmark was built?

During this free tour, we'll learn about Ireland's historical fight for independence. We'll follow in the footsteps of the tragic Easter Rising of 1916. We'll travel through the history of North Dublin!

Very close to The Spire, we'll see the imposing facade of the GPO, the General Post Office, which has no less than 200 years of history! We'll continue this free tour of North Dublin by visiting the Garden of Remembrance. Here we'll reflect on some of the darker episodes in Irish history.

Walking along the North Georgian Quarter, we'll arrive at St. Mary's Procathedral. As we admire its exterior architecture we'll learn what a "procathedral" actually means. From this point, we'll go to the banks of the Liffey River to see from the outside the great monumental complex of the Custom House.

Our last stop will be around 5 pm in front of the Famine Memorial, with a view of the Jeanie Johnston boat, which is closely related to the history of the famine.

Here we'll see the modern Docklands area and the imposing Samuel Beckett Bridge, built by the famous architect Santiago Calatrava, nicknamed the Harp Bridge.

Groups

Please note that this free tour is for groups of no more than 6 people. If you're a larger group, you should book a private tour of Dublin.
