Private tour in Dublin

Tour Price : €310.00 - €450.00 Duration : Full Day Languages: English

Ireland is a wonderful country to explore. It has an age old history and rich cultural heritage, so no wonder there are so many interesting places to visit. Newgrange is one of the most popular of them. It is a prehistoric monument which is situated in the Meath County. Historians have estimated that it was built approximately in 3200 BC. Isn’t that impressive? There are still some discussions about the purpose of this construction, but some people consider The Newgrange might have religious significance.

Anyway, this place is usually included in any guided tour in Dublin. Then we will take a look at the High Crosses, which were built in the 10th century. We will also find there the ruins of Monasterboice, which is thought to be founded in the 5th century. It used to be a very important centre of learning and of course religion, until the Mellifont Abbey was founded. By the way it is also a place of great historical significance.

Any private guide in Dublin would advice you to visit this place. After exploring the ruins of the Abbey we will proceed to the site, where the Battle of the Boyne was fought between the two legendary figures: William of Orange and King James. During this tour you will have a unique opportunity to see lovely Irish country houses. We will also visit several famous gardens and the Castletown house.
