Overview

This small group day tour from Dublin lasts about 8 hours and includes horse riding in Wicklow Mountain National Park. The tour begins with pickup at the Molly Malone statue on Suffolk Street at 9:20 AM, where participants should arrive 10 minutes early. From there, the group travels to Killegar Stables for a 1.5-hour horse riding session. Before riding, guests receive an assessment at the stables and then follow a nearby track. After horse riding, the tour stops in the Victorian village of Enniskerry for a 45-minute lunch break, with Poppies Cafe recommended for its local dishes and variety. The journey then continues through Wicklow Mountains National Park, including a 20-minute visit to Guinness Lake, known for its appearances in the "Vikings" and "Braveheart" films. Several stops are made at scenic points along Sally Gap. The tour includes a 30-minute visit to the Glendalough Monastic Settlement, featuring the 6th-century site of St Kevin. Participants also have about an hour to explore the valley and its two lakes, including Glendalough Upper Lake, before returning to Dublin.
