Experience two of Dublin’s top attractions - Guinness Storehouse and Kilmainham Gaol on a fascinating skip-the-line exciting tour in and around Dublin’s historical quarters.
On this must-see tour, stops include the Guinness Storehouse, Ireland’s number one visitor attraction, where you'll skip the long lines to enjoy a tasting and a free pint of Guinness.Once inside, you’ll begin your guided tour at the bottom of the world’s largest pint glass and work your way up to the Gravity Bar for your complimentary pint of the black stuff and a dazzling Dublin view. Along the way, you’ll learn the story of Guinness’ brewing heritage and its place in Irish history from your expert guide.You’ll marvel at the world’s largest pint glass as it rises up the 7-story atrium, discover how Guinness is made and transported around the world, and explore engaging exhibits on some of the storehouse’s other floors. 
With small groups of only 20 people or fewer, this in-depth walking tour of Kilmainham Gaol, Ireland’s oldest prison, will be personal and unhurried. Your passionate, expert guide will help you discover its fascinating history and its role in rallying the Irish people to pursue independence. You’ll learn about some of the most important events in Irish history and be moved by stories of great personal sacrifice and triumph. You’ll understand how the Irish were governed for more than 700 years by the English and the ensuing political and revolutionary events that shaped modern Ireland.
Once inside the jail, you’ll discover its dark history while walking in the footsteps of many of its many inmates, including men, women and children. You’ll explore Irish and English politics while your guide tells you about some of its most well-known inmates, including the Leaders of the 1916 Easter Rising. One of these leaders awaiting execution was Countess Markievicz, an Irish politician, revolutionary, nationalist, suffragette and socialist. (The movie Michael Collins about another Irish rebel was actually filmed at Kilmainham Gaol.
