Travel with one of our expert local guides for a fun, relaxed day filled with scenery, history, stories and plenty of time to experience Wicklow. Highlights: scenic drive along Dublin’s southern coast, Killiney Hill, Avoca Handweavers (Kilmacanoge), Sally Gap, Lough Tay (Guinness Lake), Glendalough’s ancient monastic site and free time to explore the Valley of the Two Lakes. Finish with a complimentary taste of Glendalough Whiskey. Winter itinerary – 1 November to 4 April: Killiney Hill and Avoca are normally excluded, allowing more time for the Wicklow Mountains, Lough Tay and Glendalough. Winter tours usually return to Dublin by 4:00–4:30pm.

Begin your journey with a visit to Kilkenny, a charming medieval city where you can wander at your own pace through its historic streets, discovering centuries-old castles, abbeys, and hidden corners full of character.

Continue with a scenic drive through the breathtaking Wicklow Mountains, stopping for photos at the stunning Wicklow Gap, one of the most picturesque viewpoints in the region. Your journey then takes you to the peaceful valley of Glendalough, where you can explore one of Ireland’s most beautiful outdoor locations, rich in history and natural beauty, with time to enjoy a relaxing walk or short hike. Finally, sit back and relax as you make your way back to Dublin, bringing with you unforgettable memories of Ireland’s serene landscapes and cultural treasures.

La visite commence par une présentation de la ville de Dublin, puis nous nous dirigeons vers le sud en direction du comté de Wicklow, surnommé affectueusement le « Jardin d'Irlande ». De magnifiques lacs, des forêts denses et des ruisseaux romantiques en font un merveilleux itinéraire panoramique et une agréable journée loin de la grande ville. Admirez les paysages rendus célèbres par des films comme Braveheart et P.S. I Love You. Nous traversons les montagnes de Wicklow jusqu'à Glendalough (arrêt d'au moins 1h30), la vallée des deux lacs. Profitez d'une promenade relaxante jusqu'au lac supérieur et explorez les ruines du monastère Saint-Kevin, avec ses tours rondes, ses croix celtiques et bien plus encore.

This is the only tour of Wicklow that visits both the Powerscourt Gardens and Glendalough as well as the Wicklow Mountains National Park from Dublin with great guides and live commentary.
