Itinerary

Dublin is a city with many sides, and with the City Sightseeing Hop‑On Hop‑Off Bus Tour, the entire modern capital opens up for you to explore. Trace its story through sights and tales that span medieval walls, elegant Georgian streets, revolution, destruction, famine, fire, poverty and, ultimately, prosperity.

Discover Dublin’s history and culture at your own pace
Hop on and off as you please to dive deeper into the city’s rich heritage. Step into the Writers Museum and celebrate Dublin’s literary legacy — a UNESCO City of Literature that shaped icons like Joyce, Wilde, Stoker, Shaw and Beckett. Without Dublin, the world might never have met Dracula or Dorian Gray. If art calls your name, hop off at IMMA — the Irish Museum of Modern Art — where bold, thought‑provoking works from artists like Rauschenberg and Lichtenstein promise something fresh and unexpected.

History lovers can explore Kilmainham Gaol, where many of Ireland’s political and military leaders were imprisoned, or visit the Jeanie Johnston, a replica famine ship that carried Irish emigrants to America. Continue on to the National Museum of Ireland and uncover the events that shaped the city’s identity. And with 48‑ and 72‑hour tickets, you can also hop off for experiences like the Irish Whiskey Museum or the World of Illusion — perfect for mixing culture with a bit of fun.

Fun, flavour and iconic Dublin stops you shouldn’t miss
After soaking up all that history, it’s time to enjoy Dublin’s playful side. Visit the Guinness Storehouse, Teelings Distillery or the Irish Whiskey Museum to learn about Ireland’s favourite drinks. Then wander through Temple Bar, packed with lively pubs and great places to eat. Grab a pint of the black stuff before hopping back on to explore more of the city’s top attractions.
Opt for a 72‑hour ticket and add another layer to your adventure with a fun Sightseeing Bike Tour. And remember — every ticket includes a free walking tour for an even deeper look at Dublin’s stories and streets.
