What to expect

Explore Dublin your own way with Big Bus Dublin's hop-on hop-off sightseeing tour. There is no better way to take in Dublin's stunning sights and buzzing atmosphere than from onboard the open-top, double-decker buses.

Hop on to discover Dublin's colorful history and rich culture, then hop off to explore the city at your own pace. With one comprehensive route taking you to several stops covering all of Dublin's most-loved attractions, exploring has never been easier! Raise a glass at the Guinness Storehouse, discover the Book of Kells at Trinity College and meet the residents of Dublin Zoo. Take advantage of the English-speaking live guides and pre-recorded commentary on board to learn about Dublin's history and culture. When you hop off the bus, don't miss the chance to join a Yellow Umbrella Walking Tour (included with all tickets). It's a perfect complement to your Big Bus Tour as it gives you the chance to visit some of the city's hidden gems - often located on narrow streets the bus won't fit down!

Explore ticket holders can enjoy a half-day coastal tour that takes you to the scenic Howth Summit and its famous fishing village. This tour includes a return journey from Dublin to Howth, a guided walking tour of the cliffs of Howth, and free time to explore picturesque Howth Village, where you can take the opportunity to try some excellent seafood.
