Our tips for Dublin

  • Choose wisely in Temple Bar. Dublin’s cultural capital boasts plenty of restaurants, pubs, and hotels to choose from. However, Temple Bar is choc-a-bloc with tourists, increasing prices and decreasing Dubliners. When considering things to do in Dublin at night, look to the neighbourhoods alongside Temple Bar for a more authentic Irish experience.
  • Brush up on your vocals. Warm up that singing voice, many Dublin pubs will have you belting the faithful Irish ballads of Galway Girl and Molly Malone in no time.
  • Take a Dublin day trip. A coastal city, Dublin’s centre is surrounded by cute seaside villages and picture-perfect beaches. Many of these Dublin attractions are just a short train ride away, so a day trip should definitely be on your list if you’re considering what to do in Dublin.
