Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Pass By: Paddywagon Tours, Dublin Ireland
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."
Stop At: Wicklow Mountains National Park, Glendalough Village 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.
Here we make a short stop at one of the most photographed locations in Wicklow, Lough Tay, which is also commonly called The Guinness Lake.
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Glendalough Monastic Settlement, Visitor Centre Ireland
Renowned 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.
1.5 hours of free time to explore this site.
Duration: 2 hours
Pass By: Wicklow Mountains National Park, Glendalough Village Ireland
If 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!

We return to Dublin, delighted with our wonderful half day tour and with great photos and memories to last a lifetime.

I had taken a similar tour with a different company and booked this one since I was back and it was my sister's first time in Ireland. I had promised her the "P.S. I Love You Bridge" and sadly this tour didn't stop there. Also, we asked about the yellow bushes and the driver didn't know anything about them. We later learned that the bushes (gorse or furze) are part of Irish folklore. Would have been a great addition if he had known and mentioned them.
It was dreary which didn't help but no rain. Thought we would have more time in Wicklow. Fascinating history at Glendalough and hotel has delicious scone. Nice little gift shop
We loved our guide! I’m so sad I forgot his name, but he was so kind and thoughtful. He’d share historical facts then muse some on what’s yet to be uncovered...very sweet man. He went out of his way to be helpful with directions and times, etc. Breath-taking scenery!!!! A refreshing and peaceful excursion from the city—but back in time for lunch and more fun! A great way to spend the morning.
Tour was well organised and it’s highly recommended for all those who wants to experience ireland countryside. Weather was lovely and sunny, and it made the whole trip much better! The wagon that picked us up was different than the one we were waiting for..... but I’ve got a call from the tour operator when the driver couldn’t find us, so all went well in the end. The driver was friendly and gave us a commentary on our way to Glendelough, so we could learn more about Ireland!
This tour is a must! You find out the Irish countryside in a comfortable way. Our guide Patrick and driver Aaron were very friendly! Wicklow mountains and Glendalough lakes were amazing
This was a great tour, the highlight of our trip to Dublin. The scenery was absolutely stunning, Glendalough was an amazing place. The travelling time was fairly short and we were given a reasonable time to walk around the lakes and ancient buildings. The driver was professional, friendly, gave us lots of information about the area and it's history and culture and couldn't do enough for the passengers. This was the second Paddywagon tour I have been on in Ireland and both have been outstanding.
Tour was beautiful, great scenery and interesting history. Perfect for travelers with limited time!
