The sites were amazing, the food delicious, and our tour guide Jerry was VERY entertaining and knowledgeable.

We took the train back to the city (informed our tour guide before disembarking in town) to extend our day, but well worth the investment to be escorted into the town with a guide.

Overview

Hop aboard this Big Bus tour, and enjoy Ireland's stunning coastal scenery as you travel to one of the country's prettiest villages. Howth has charm in spades, making it a lovely spot to spend an afternoon with an ice cream in hand. Its history is speckled with stories of Vikings and Normans, many of which you'll learn about with this tour's guided walk.

Upon arriving in Howth, you'll explore the wild headlands overlooking the dramatic Dublin Bay, with your driver as your guide. You'll visit the best vantage points where you can look out for gannets, seals, puffins and other wildlife.

You'll then have time to enjoy the pretty village of Howth. Take a stroll along the pier, and perhaps visit one of the local restaurants to try some of the best seafood in the area.

Coastal bus ride with humorous commentary

This trip was great with humorous commentary from Dublin centre to Howth., Would have liked more time in Howth as we did the coastal walk,and had very quick lunch before getting the bus back, The walk was described as guded but left to.our own devices
