Itinerario
Originalmente construida en madera por los vikingos, la magnífica catedral fue remodelada en piedra por los normandos y renovada con dinero del whisky en el siglo XIX.
La Catedral de San Patricio, que lleva el nombre de nuestro famoso santo patrón que expulsó a las serpientes de la isla, fue magníficamente renovada por la familia Guinness (Sir Benjamin lee Guinness) en la década de 1860.
Este hermoso y apartado jardín alberga la biblioteca Chester Beatty y es donde los vikingos atracaron sus barcos largos cuando llegaron a Dublín en el siglo IX.
El Castillo de Dublín, centro del gobierno británico en Irlanda durante 700 años, es una impresionante mezcla de arquitectura medieval, georgiana, gótica y moderna.
Junto al Ayuntamiento y fuera de la puerta principal del castillo explicamos el significado de nuestra bandera nacional: la paz entre católicos y protestantes, el Norte y el Sur.
Una de las partes más antiguas de la ciudad y ahora famosa por sus animados pubs y vida nocturna, describimos cómo se distribuyó durante la conquista Tudor de Irlanda.
Después de cruzar el río Liffey de sur a norte, podemos contemplar la vista de la ciudad desde el este, donde los celtas construyeron su asentamiento hace 2.100 años, hasta el oeste, donde los estadounidenses inspiraron los Silicon Docks hace 21 años.
Cruzamos de regreso al sur por el icónico puente Ha'Penny. Originalmente llamado así en honor al Duque de Wellington, podemos agradecer a Harland & Wolff que el puente ya no tiemble cuando lo cruzas.
Dublín es una ciudad de contrastes, ejemplificada por Crown Alley con Merchant's Arch en un extremo y el gigante brutalista de Sam Stephenson, Stephenson Tower, en el otro.
Con algunos de los edificios más bellos (bancos y parlamento) de la ciudad, College Green era el centro de gobierno y finanzas en una ciudad que se consideraba la segunda ciudad del imperio.
¡Ningún recorrido por Dublín está completo sin saludar a nuestra hija favorita de Dublín, Molly Malone!
Concluimos nuestra exploración de nuestra querida ciudad antigua frente al magnífico Trinity College, hogar de la famosa exposición del Libro de Kells.

SUMMARY - great tour! Definitely would recommend and glad we did it early on our second day. Did the paid tour which was great value. MEETING - Took us a little while to find the exact spot, but Dublin is so small that you can walk to the meetup point pretty much from any central location or hotel in Dublin. We booked a paid for small group tour, and it turned out it was just us and Peter the owner/operator of Yellow Umbrella Tours- TOUR - It was a couple of hours, with Peter walking us around various locations and giving us a lot of background and history that I was completely unaware of, even having been born and brought up in England before moving the the US. I really appreciated that added context to all the various places, it made it so much more interesting than just looking at a building or point of interest, and Peter was not only very knowledgeable, but because it was a small group tour we were able to interact and ask additional questions without being too much of a pain. Finished outside Trinity and it turned out that Peter was a former student (for Americans reading this, Trinity is like Ireland's Harvard or Yale) - as Peter said wryly, you'll always know a Trinity man - because they'll tell you they are! Funny dude :-) COST/MISC - My wife booked it and we normally do free walking tours, but she picked out this paid one for maybe 17EUR (?), and tbh it was well worth it and I'd do the paid one by preference over the free ones because, as someone who's hearing is a bit bad, it was great to be able to hear everything he was saying, to ask to repeat if I didn't hear, or to ask for extra details if we wanted. So yeah I think we got lucky being the only ones on the tour, but I would definitely recommend the company, Peter himself, and the very reasonable price of the tour. Good job and thanks again Peter!
We had a great tour with Peter. He was knowledgeable and informative about Dublin and Irish history. Was a great way to get introduced to Dublin
Peter was a really kind guy with a lot of knowledge. We liked the tour very much, since he showed us places where I might not have gone too, since they are so hidden or unspectacular, till he tells you something about it. We learned so much and it was very fun! I enjoyed it a lot and was delighted to have Peter as the tour guide!
We did the walking tour on the first day of our trip in Dublin, and as it was our first time visiting the city, it was a perfect way to get our bearings. Our tour guide (Conor) was very friendly and knowledgeable - we learnt all about the history of Dublin. The tour lasted about 2 hours and we were able to stop off and buy a coffee half way. We were recommended the restaurant Lundy Foot’s which does a discounted menu for people who have been on the tour - we had a delicious meal here! Would highly recommend!
Today we went to tour Dublin with Yelow umbrella. When the Guide arrives Rebekah asks us what if we all go together (family of 7 members), we explain that we are family, to which she tells us that she has to separate us into two groups, “because it is the policy what they have”, but after asking her that if something could be done, she replies that if we assure her that we will pay a min of 15 € per person would make an exception. Very poorly educated and high-handed. With the Ana guide there was no problem, we could do the tour, with a final experience of 10. Thank you Ana!
The REBECA guide wanted to impose a minimum price of 15 euros to NOT separate a family into two groups.. shame, I travel a lot and always use free tours and I have never encountered such a high-handed tour guide.
Peter was charming, highly engaging and his passion for Dublin is evident. I enjoyed every minute of this walking tour.
We had our tour with Jack and it was great! He made the tour really interesting and funny. Next to that, he gave us a few insider tips, on what to see and what to do. We would definitely recommend it!
Peter was AMAZING! He was very knowledgeable and gave little tips on things to do outside of the tour. Definitely recommend this tour. It gives you a good sense of the city and so much more.
Great for a quick overview of the history and centre of Dublin. Takes in the main sites of the city centre and allows orientation. Patrick was excellent and answered any questions we had. Can recommend this as a starting point for a short break in Dublin.
