From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog demo

Discover the enchanting beauty and rich history of Ireland’s hidden gems on a full-day tour to Glendalough and the Wicklow Mountains, departing from Dublin. Begin your adventure with a scenic drive through the lush Irish countryside, accompanied by a friendly guide and fellow travelers. The journey leads you first to Powerscourt Waterfall, Ireland’s highest waterfall, nestled deep within the forested valleys of the Wicklow Mountains. Here, you’ll have 45 minutes to an hour to roam freely, take in the peaceful surroundings, and snap memorable photos of the cascading waters. This tranquil natural setting offers the perfect introduction to the stunning landscapes that define this region.

From there, continue to the awe-inspiring Glendalough Monastery, a sacred site founded by Saint Kevin in the 6th century. You’ll have two full hours to explore the historic round tower, stone churches, and serene lakes that make Glendalough one of Ireland’s most treasured monastic settlements. Wander the peaceful grounds, enjoy a relaxing lunch from nearby cafes or food trucks, and soak up the harmony between history and nature. Before heading back, make a brief but meaningful stop in the original Irish village of Hollywood—far from California but rich in charm. A day spent among the waterfalls, mountains, and sacred ruins of Glendalough and Wicklow offers the perfect escape and a genuine glimpse into Ireland’s timeless beauty.
