We begin with an introduction to Dublin City after which we leave the city behind and head south towards the Wicklow Mountains. Meet your fellow travelers for a great trip to the "Garden of Ireland." As we leave the city we pass by Sugar Loaf mountain and descend through Ireland's highest village Roundwood on your way to magnificent Glendalough.
Stop At: Wicklow Mountains National Park, Glendalough Village Ireland
GlendaloughRenowned for its magnificent scenery and rich and varied heritage in terms of history and archaeology, Glendalough is famed for the Braveheart wedding scenes and it really is one of the most beautiful visitor sites in all of Ireland. You will have 1.5 hours to explore the deep valley with its ruined Monastic City of Celtic crosses, round towers and much more. Known as the valley of 2 lakes, we enjoy a leisurely stroll along the bank of the river, through the woods where we are greeted by babbling brooks, crystal cascades and the lakes of Glendalough. A real picture perfect moment.Travel through a real life movie setIf you are a fan of the Hollywood Blockbusters 'PS I Love You' and 'Braveheart' then join us on this tour! You will understand why Mel Gibson chose the Wicklow mountains to be the Highlands of Scotland and Glendalough to be the spot for the wedding scene. And then of course there are all the romantic scenes from 'PS I Love You', this is where Hilary Swank met Gerard Butler for the first time...you never know who you can meet!

Our tour guide was wonderful and very knowledgeable on the area. We had a wonderful time walking and taking in the views. I would gladly take another tour with this group.
Lovely setting - enjoyed a carriage ride with 90 year old driver and his horse and a very pleasant time in a warm and friendly pub - plus visit to the lovely craft store.
This was a very good price for a beautifully scenic tour. The only issue we had was that it was slightly too short. We spent some time exploring the Glendalough Monastic Site before choosing the boardwalk route to Upper Lake. We got some amazing pictures there. The only issue was we were so rushed that by the time we got to the lake we had time for maybe 2-3 minutes of pictures before power walking it back to the bus. Location and scenery were amazing but it would have been perfect if it were 30 minutes longer.
