Overview

On your private day trip, you will: -Visit the magnificent Powerscourt Gardens, a stunning 47-acre garden first designed in the 1730s and one of the most beautiful estates in Ireland. -Explore Enniskerry, a charming village of picturesque streets and discover which popular Disney movie was filmed here. -Visit Lough Tay, known as the "Guinness Lake" due to the colour of its waters, featured in the series "Vikings". -Stop for lunch in a traditional Old Irish Village in the heart of the Wicklow Mountains. -Enjoy time for a quick hike in the Wicklow Mountains in the surrounding hills to take in the stunning scenery. -Discover Glendalough, famous for its natural beauty, rich history, and ancient monastic settlement ruins that will transport you back to a bygone era of saints and scholars. -Admire the stunning coastal scenery and seaside village, and snap some amazing photos on your drive back to Dublin. At the beginning of the day, you will be picked up by a comfortable, private vehicle and whisked south through the picturesque Irish countryside.

After a scenic drive through the mountains, your guide will lead you around Glendalough’scomplete 6th-century monastic settlement founded by St. Kevin, complete with a round tower, a cathedral and many smaller churches. After a hearty pub lunch (not included) in the nearby area, the scenic landscape of the countryside awaits you.
