What sets this Temple Bar Walking Tour apart is how it blends freedom, storytelling, and technology to bring Dublin’s most iconic district to life.
You’ll explore at your own pace through the Exploro app, guided by an immersive audio narration filled with history, legends, and surprises that even locals don’t know.
The full experience lasts around 2 hours and includes 27 fascinating stops, that you can explore at your own pace.
Highlights include:
• Explore Temple Bar’s cobbled lanes and discover its hidden past
• Learn about the Viking roots, Irish independence, and Dublin’s musical legacy
• Visit landmarks like Christ Church Cathedral, Dublin Castle, and City Hall
• Discover The Bank Pub, one of Dublin’s most stunning historical interiors
• Enjoy GPS navigation, local insights, and multimedia content that brings each stop to life
Perfect for independent travelers who want the freedom of a self-guided experience without missing the magic of great storytelling.
Now, I know what you’re thinking, Temple Bar? Isn’t that just for stags and hen parties? And hey, fair question. But stick with me, because we're going beyond the pints and postcards. This isn’t the touristy Temple Bar. It’s the one locals walk through with headphones on, thinking, “If these cobbles could talk…” Well, today, they do.
You’ll hear stories about:
• The Palace Bar, where writers like Brendan Behan drank and misbehaved
• The Rock and Roll Museum and its cheeky Wall of Fame, yes, U2’s on it, but so is Rory Gallagher
• A pub that used to be a bank and still feels like you might need a loan to order a cocktail
• A hidden garden just behind Dublin Castle that most people walk right past
• The city’s old medieval wall and where it still peeks out today
• The Thomas Davis fountain, complete with trumpeting bronze figures
• And we’ll wrap up at the grand old Parliament building, with Trinity College right across from it, talk about history on both sides of the street
It's a tour guided by Exploro app, you will have the stops pinpointed on the map and the directions explained at each stop in case you need them.
