What to expect
Leave the hustle and bustle of Dublin City behind you as you travel into the Irish countryside for an unforgettable day in the "Garden of Ireland".
Your first stop of the day is Glendalough. A stunning, secluded spot just south of Dublin, you'll be able to explore the lakes and waterfalls and discover the monastic ruined city of St.Kevin and see one of the finest round towers in Ireland. You'll have around 2 hours to soak up its beauty and discover the walks on offer.
Afterwards, you will be taken to a sheepdog herding demonstration. This is definitely a must-see for all as you see the intelligence of the sheepdogs firsthand and learn why they're the perfect farm companion. Travel through the Wicklow Mountains, admiring the changes in scenery as you head into the breathtaking ancient glacial valleys of the Wicklow Gap.
Your last stop of the day will be at Kilkenny where you'll have 2 hours to explore the city, visit its medieval castle and gardens or stroll through the cobbled streets and take in the sites.
