Tailteann Walking Tours of Dublin City offer a choice of guided tours given by a native Dubliner Antóin Ó Lochraigh. Using humour, verse and song, our guide illuminates the many contrasting events and characters that helped to mould the story of the city.

Tailteann Walking Tours bring Dublin to life and show the many sights that make Dublin rank among the World's great cities. A bit of poetry and song are included that reflects on the city and its appeal, primarily its people. Antóin Ó Lochraigh speaks Irish, English and Dutch.

Tailteann Walking Tours weaves stories and sights covering the Viking area and medieval churches, Georgian Dublin, rebellion and civil war. They offer a comprehensive tour of Dublin in 5 hours.

Some notable places include College Green in the centre of the city where you will find the colonnaded Bank of Ireland building. Formerly it housed the first bicameral houses of parliament in the World at its inception in 1723.

Trinity College, the oldest university in Ireland, holds the Book of Kells. The university has a rich history wherein many of its past alumni have left their mark. Dublin can claim Robert Mallett, known as the father of seismology, as one of their own. You can stand on the shoulders of literary giants such as Joyce, Wilde, Swift and more by visiting the haunts that still resonate with their fame.

The Vikings settled in Dublin over 1000 years ago and their influence can still be observed. Medieval cathedrals, beautiful architecture and pubs that give soul to the city are all part of the tour.
