My girlfriend and I stumbled (likely, literally, drunk) into the local TI in Dublin looking for something to do. For me, it was one of the best decisions we made the entire trip. The team of lively lads and lassies of Paddy Wagon made Ireland all I ever expected.
One of their hostels was just...

I've been to the Guinness brewery 3 times so far. Once each in 2001, 2002, & 2003. The first time was a great vacation and stayed at friends' flat, and the two others where during St. Patrick’s Day. Very crowded. This brewery has one of the best self guided tours of a brewery I have ever been to. ...

They don’t manufacture whiskey here anymore (you’d have to go to Midleton for that) but it’s the original site. It’s a guided tour, the guide was quite funny (well, mine was anyway – maybe you can ask for Kristina (from Slovakia)). Three guys and three girls were chosen to do a taste test ...

Of all the things I saw and did in Dublin, this was by far my favorite. I don't want to get too into what was in the museum, but if you check out the website you can get a good idea. If you find history interesting this place is a must see. It is a little way off from most of the major sites, but...

I was amazed how these doors can attract tourists. Almost all the doors in the center of Dublin are painted with different attractive colors and I can't help but take pictures. I later found out that these are one of the tourist attractions here, there are postcards showcasing these doors as well ...

I would recommend Paddywagon tours for people who want to do a typical tour, either alone or in conjunction with the rest of your travels. The tour is fast-paced and informative. Our tour guide, Yvonne, was amazing, intelligent, and helpful. I am not sure what the other tour guides are like, but Yvo...

We got the Dublin Pass (which we booked online and picked up tickets at t...
