• Dublin - Guests will be collected in style in a small group tour van. The guide will be waiting with a sign (Elegant Irish Tours) ready to embark on a wonderful journey. After a warm welcome, the guide will share the day’s highlights, lunch options, and recommend some fantastic shops for purchasing Irish arts and crafts as the tour begins, promising memories to cherish forever.
• Glendalough Monastic Settlement - The tour starts with a delightful drive through County Wicklow, also known as the garden of Ireland. With its rolling hills, babbling brooks, and romantic glens, it’s easy to see why this landscape was featured in Hollywood blockbusters like P.S. I Love You and Braveheart.

The journey continues to Glendalough, known as the valley of two lakes, renowned for St. Kevin’s monastery dating back to the 6th century. The monastic site boasts Ireland’s finest round tower, and visitors can try to wrap their hands around St. Kevin’s cross, as legend says this will lead to marriage within a year. It’s truly a wonderful place to explore!

Stoppage time depends on the schedule of your liner’s arrival/departure
