Itinerario
Su recorrido comienza desde la estatua de Molly Malone, donde se encontrará con su guía y se pondrá en marcha a través del hermoso valle de Boyne. Esta es una de las zonas prehistóricas más importantes de Irlanda y el paisaje circundante está salpicado de monumentos antiguos.
Newgrange es uno de los monumentos antiguos más impresionantes de Irlanda y es Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la UNESCO. Es el sitio de enterramiento y lugar de culto antiguo construido expresamente más grande de Irlanda. El monumento está construido de manera que esté alineado con el solsticio de invierno, que era de gran importancia para el pueblo neolítico de Irlanda en ese momento.
La batalla del Boyne en 1690 fue la batalla decisiva no sólo para la clase dominante en Irlanda sino también en Gran Bretaña y Europa. Explica los problemas de Irlanda del Norte y por qué la comunidad leal lo celebra cada año el 12 de julio. Fue una batalla que eventualmente conduciría al desplazamiento de los celtas irlandeses y su cultura por toda la isla de Irlanda. También fue una batalla por el Trono de Inglaterra entre el rey católico Jaime II y el rey protestante de Holanda (Guillermo de Orange).

Mainistir Bhuithe – “monasterio de Buithe” es el sitio monástico del siglo V fundado por San Buithe. El sitio incluye los restos de dos iglesias construidas en el siglo XIV y una torre redonda del siglo X, pero es más famoso por sus altas cruces celtas. La torre redonda mide unos 28 metros de altura y se encuentra en muy buen estado. Probablemente fue construido poco después de 968 y dañado en un incendio en 1098. Las tres cruces altas datan del siglo X y forman parte del grupo escritural (que muestran escenas bíblicas). La Cruz Alta de Muiredach, de 5,5 metros de altura, está considerada la cruz alta más hermosa de toda Irlanda. Presenta tallas bíblicas del Antiguo y Nuevo Testamento de la Biblia. Lleva el nombre de un abad, Muiredach mac Domhnaill, que murió en 923.

This tour was amazing, the guide we had named Matt was amazing and had lots of great knowledge and where we were going and would answer any questions we had.
Thank you very much for the excellent review and I'm delighted that you enjoyed your tour of Newgrange with Matt.
Absolutely excellent tour, hands down one of the highlights of my time in Ireland. Matt was extremely knowledgeable and a safe driver. I had sufficient time at each location to see and experience all I had hoped plus I was able to learn so much about each location. Highly recommended for anyone staying in Dublin.
Thank you very much for the excellent review.
Amazing experience to see these Neolithic sites. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable and also took us to a bonus stop that wasn’t in the itinerary. Would definitely recommend this tour.
Thank you very much Eli for the excellent review.
St. Kevin was a great guide. Lots of personality that made the day fun as he took us from place to place. Overall the tour was a great way to get to see several sights outside of Dublin over an entire day. Highly would recommend if you’re interested in seeing any of these places.
Thank you very much for the excellent review and high recommendation.
We had an outstanding day exploring Newgrange, Monasterboice, Mellifont Abbey, and the Boyne Valley, and our guide, Matt, was a huge part of what made it such a memorable experience. Matt didn't simply drive us from one historic site to another—he connected each location into one continuous story spanning over 5,000 years. His additional stops at places like Mellifont Abbey and his explanations of the High Crosses and Round Towers provided historical context that transformed each stop from "old ruins" into living history. What impressed me most was his storytelling. Rather than reciting dates and facts, he explained how the people of Ireland lived, worshipped, fought, and shaped their country over thousands of years. As an American, it was a wonderful reminder that the United States is still very much a young nation compared to the incredible depth of Irish history. Standing at Newgrange—older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids—and then following the story forward through the medieval monasteries and ultimately to the Battle of the Boyne was fascinating. One of the most valuable parts of the tour was Matt's discussion of the Great Hunger (Great Famine) of 1845–1850. He explained that it was far more complex than simply a "potato famine," providing the historical context, political realities, and human impact in a thoughtful and balanced way. It was one of those moments where history became much more than dates in a textbook. Matt was knowledgeable, personable, answered every question thoughtfully, and clearly has a genuine passion for Irish history. You could tell he enjoys teaching as much as guiding. If you're considering this tour, I highly recommend it—and if you're fortunate enough to have Matt as your guide, you're in for much more than transportation between attractions. You'll spend the day with someone who truly brings Ireland's history to life.
Thank you very much Catherine for the excellent and detailed review.
Matt is a master of historical knowledge! I learned so much from him and am glad he was my guide for the tour. We started by visiting Knowth and Newgrange. Then we made quick stop at Old Mellifont Abbey. It is not on the itinerary, but Matt was able to fit it into our schedule and I learned a lot about the place from Matt. We ended up at Monasterboice. I learned so much about the Great Hunger (Famine) and the true events of what happened. We also learned about the High Cross. It was a great tour and I recommend it. It was an excellent learning experience that proved amazing memories.
Thank you very much for the detailed and excellent review.
