Private Dublin City tour

This city tour takes you beyond Dublin’s bustling center and into the quieter suburbs and coastal villages that reveal another side of Irish life. The journey includes a visit to Howth, a charming fishing village with roots stretching back to prehistoric times and deep ties to Irish mythology. Known today as a lively yet tranquil suburb, Howth combines a working harbor with wild hillsides, heathland, golf courses, and stunning cliff and coastal walks. Along the way, you’ll also see the historic Baily Lighthouse, built in the 17th century and famously the last lighthouse in Ireland to be automated.

A highlight of the tour is Malahide Castle, where over 800 years of history are brought to life. Guests can wander its halls on a guided tour, explore the magical Fairy Trail, and step into the Butterfly House to see rare species up close. The beautifully curated Walled Garden offers another treat, with its rich collection of plants and flowers adding color and charm. With opportunities for a short hike, engaging stories, and breathtaking scenery, this tour blends history, nature, and culture into a unique experience just outside Dublin’s city boundaries.
