Explore Ireland's rich history on this day trip from Dublin. We’ll visit the Hill of Tara, Trim Castle, Loughcrew's Cairns, and Fore Abbey.

Tour Details

After meeting at the Molly Malone statue on Suffolk Street, we will set off by coach to explore some of eastern Ireland's most fascinating historic places.

After 40 minutes, we will arrive at the Hill of Tara, a ceremonial and burial site historically significant as the seat of the High Kings of Ireland. Visitors will see the Coronation Stone and An Forradh monument.

We will then continue to Trim Castle, the largest Anglo-Norman fortress in Ireland, after a 30-minute drive. Our guide will provide insights about the well-preserved 12th-century ruins.

Next, we will visit Loughcrew, home to Megalithic passage tombs dating back to 3000 BC, after a 50-minute drive. This location offers historic legends and scenic views from the highest point in the county.

Following Loughcrew, we will head to Fore Distillery for a 15-minute drive. Here, we will learn about the production of spirits like Golden Irish Rum, White Irish Rum, and Irish Poitín, and we will have the option to enjoy a tasting and lunch; lunch can be purchased on-site or brought from home.

Our last stop will be Fore Abbey, founded by Saint Fechin in the 7th century. Visitors will learn about the history of this site that once housed 300 monks.

Finally, we will return to Dublin, dropping off participants on Dame Street in the city centre after a total of 10 hours and 15 minutes.
