Glendalough Day Tour from Dublin: Including Kilkenny City

Meet your comfortable bus at a central Dublin location and then head south into County Wicklow, Ireland’s Garden County. The first stop is Glendalough, a mountain valley used as a filming location for Braveheart and renowned for its 10th-century monastic ruins.

Continue along the Wicklow Gap, with views of the Wicklow Mountains, and stop to admire the Turlogh waterfall, before arriving in Kilkenny in time for lunch.

Enjoy at least two hours of free time in Kilkenny to explore the city at your leisure. Perhaps head to a traditional Irish pub for lunch (own expense), visit the medieval Kilkenny Castle, or admire landmarks such as Black Abbey and Cathedral of Saint Canice.

The tour ends with drop-off in central Dublin.

Take a leisurely drive to the medieval town of Kilkenny, a 1.5-hour drive from Dublin, known for its castles, churches, and a crafts scene. Relax on a tour that stops at the Wicklow Mountains, admire views of Wicklow Gap and Turlogh waterfall, and visits the ruins of Glendalough along the way. Free time in Kilkenny allows you time for lunch at an Irish pub (own expense), tour Kilkenny Castle, or visit Black Abbey.
