Reisroute
Het hoofdkwartier van de Rising van 1916 in Dublin is onze eerste stop op de tour Het GPO, of General Post Office, in Dublin, Ierland, was de centrale locatie van de Paasopstand van 1916, een opstand tegen de Britse overheersing. Onder leiding van figuren als Patrick Pearse en James Connolly streefden Ierse republikeinen naar een onafhankelijke Ierse Republiek. De rebellen veroverden belangrijke locaties, waaronder het GPO, en riepen de Ierse Republiek uit. Ondanks hevige gevechten mislukte de opstand vanwege een gebrek aan publieke steun en Britse militaire kracht. De symbolische betekenis van het GPO bleef bestaan, en de Paasopstand droeg bij aan de uiteindelijke oprichting van de Ierse Vrijstaat en de Republiek Ierland.
We stoppen buiten Trinity College Dublin bij College Green om een deel van de geschiedenis van de oudste universiteit van Ierland door te nemen Trinity College Dublin, opgericht in 1592, belichaamt het academische erfgoed van Ierland. De historische campus beschikt over het illustere Book of Kells en de ontzagwekkende Long Room in de Old Library. Georgische architectuur en verzorgde gazons bieden een schilderachtig decor voor eeuwenlange wetenschappelijke activiteiten. De intellectuele nalatenschap van Trinity omvat diverse disciplines en trekt studenten en wetenschappers over de hele wereld aan. Naast de academische wereld fungeert het ook als cultureel knooppunt, waar het hele jaar door tentoonstellingen en evenementen plaatsvinden. Rondleidingen bieden inzicht in de legendarische geschiedenis en opmerkelijke alumni. Trinity College Dublin is een tijdloos symbool van de intellectuele bekwaamheid van Ierland en nodigt bezoekers uit om het rijke erfgoed en de levendige campussfeer te verkennen.

Donald recited poetry, the PRO, proclamation of independence and gave incredibly funny details about Dublin, the revolution, the complicated history, the pubs and the changes in the last 50 years. He was entertaining and funny and full of quirky titbits about this amazing town. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would highly recommend. Penelope
Thank you so much, Penelope, for your wonderful review! I'm delighted you enjoyed the stories, poetry and history that make Dublin such a fascinating city. It was a pleasure sharing the events of the Revolution, the Proclamation, and some of the lesser known tales and quirky details that have shaped Dublin over the years. I'm especially pleased you enjoyed finishing the tour in the Ha'penny Bridge Inn. There's no better way to round off a walk through Dublin's history than in one of its great traditional pubs. Thank you again for your kind recommendation. It was a pleasure to spend the afternoon with you, and I hope to welcome you back to Dublin again one day. Safe travels and Sláinte!
Donal really knows his stuff - certified, expert in history, culture, literature, poetry, whisky and beer! He is super personable and funny and he read our vibe and immediately felt like a friend. We had a great time and highly recommend My Journey Ireland.
Wow, thank you so much for such an incredible review! Reading comments like this genuinely means the world to me. I'm delighted you enjoyed the mix of history, culture, literature, poetry, whisky, and, of course, a few great pints along the way. One of my favourite parts of guiding is getting to know each group and tailoring the experience to their personalities, so it's wonderful to hear you felt more like friends than guests by the end of the tour. Thank you for recommending My Journey Ireland. It was a real pleasure spending time with you, and I hope our paths cross again the next time you're back in Dublin. Sláinte! Donal
Spent the better part of a week on a tour of this most amazing Ile with one of the best guides I have had in my many adventures. His local knowledge and historical perspective blends well with his humor and love of county. He arranged meals, entertainment, and of course, libations all with out a hitch. Managing a large group or small, his conection with both young and old was most enjoyable. We even got several serenades of traditional irish folk music on our travels. A capella. I left the trip wishing we had more time to explore and enjoy. To my family and I, we started with a tour guide and ended with a friend. The best compliment you can give is a referral and upon my return I have done so many times. Slàinte Donal, Thanks for sharing your island, towns and culture with us. We shall return Warning or a promise, you decide.
Thank you for such a thoughtful and generous review. Reading this brought a huge smile to my face. It was a real pleasure spending the week with you and the rest of the Ohio Northern University group. I'm delighted that you enjoyed not only the history and local stories, but also the music, humour, and the many memorable meals, pubs, and experiences we shared along the way. One of the greatest privileges of being a guide is having the opportunity to introduce visitors to Ireland's people, culture, and traditions. Hearing that you started the trip with a tour guide and ended it with a friend is one of the nicest compliments I could receive. Thank you as well for the referrals. There is no greater endorsement, and I truly appreciate your support. Slàinte, and thank you for allowing me to share a small part of Ireland with your family. Whether your return is a warning or a promise, I'll gladly take it as good news and look forward to welcoming you back someday. Until then, safe travels and all the very best, Donal
Our family just had the most amazing week with Donal. He gave our group many interesting facts while also making the trip fun with his humor. If he didn't know an answer to a question, he made a point to discover the answer. I really do hope you visit the states in 2029 and make a detour to connect with us Ohioans for a few days. We truly just made a distant lifelong friend. 'Who has the best bus?' 'We have the best bus.' And last but not least, since you are no longer permitted to say it, 'my graveyard'.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. Hosting the Ohio Northern University group was an absolute pleasure, and your kind words mean a great deal to me. I am delighted that you enjoyed the mix of history, stories, and humour throughout the week. One of the best parts of guiding is sharing Ireland with curious travellers, and I always enjoy tracking down the answers to any questions that catch me out! The friendships and connections made during tours are what make this work so rewarding. I genuinely enjoyed spending the week with all of you, and I hope our paths cross again in the future. If I ever find myself in Ohio in 2029, I'll be sure to look up my ONU friends. And yes, for the record: we have the best bus! Thank you again for travelling with me and for helping make the week such a memorable one. I'll also give a quiet nod to "my graveyard" and leave it at that. Warm regards, Donal
Donal is a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable with a great sense of humour (and lots of little anecdotes)! It was lovely to have a chat with him over a pint at the end of the tour.
Thank you so much for the kind words. I am really glad you enjoyed the tour. It was great chatting with you over a pint afterwards as well. Hopefully our paths will cross again on another adventure in Ireland. Sláinte!
Perfect tour! We were the only couple booking this tour on this january day and we got a very sweet private tour :) It ended with us pouring our own pint in a pub and the bartender even showed us the basement with all the kegs and the cooling room ❤️ Donal is a very knowledgeable and funny guy and i can’t recommend this tour enough :) Also he offers a pub tour -> He really knows his way around the pubs in dublin so that is a recommendation too :)
Thank you so much for such a lovely review. I am delighted you enjoyed your private tour and that the pint pouring and behind the scenes visit made it even more special. It was a real pleasure showing you around and I am glad the relaxed January day added to the experience. Thank you as well for the kind words and the recommendation. I hope to welcome you back to Dublin again in the future.
We are very pleased with our enthusiastic guide Donal, if was both knowledgeable and had a twinkle in his eye. Got both a lot of history from this local patriot and also tips on places to look closer at. Donal answered all our questions knowledgeably.
Tack så mycket for your lovely review. I am delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour. It was a pleasure guiding you around and sharing some of Dublin’s history along with a few local favourites to explore further. I am very glad you found the information helpful and that all your questions were answered. Thank you again for joining the tour, and I hope to welcome you back to Dublin in the future.
Great walking tour with historical information, humor and personal experiences. We would highly recommend taking this tour!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm delighted you enjoyed the walking tour and appreciated the mix of history, humour, and personal stories. It was a pleasure having you along, and I truly appreciate the recommendation. Safe travels and hopefully see you again sometime! — Donal
Great historical walk with Dónal - plenty of history, poetry and passion to beautiful Ireland. Go raibh míle maith agat, a Dhónal!
Go raibh míle maith agat féin! I'm really glad you enjoyed the walk and appreciated the mix of history, poetry, and passion for Ireland – it means a lot to hear. Every group brings a different energy, and it's always rewarding when that connection comes through. Thanks again for joining me – and for taking the time to share your thoughts. Slán go fóill, Dónal
Talks a lot about people and years. Talking fast and not so clear. Much that he has been through himself and less on Dublin.
Tack för att du tog dig tid att dela med dig av dina synpunkter. Det är verkligen tråkigt att höra att turen inte levde upp till dina förväntningar. Det här var en mycket liten grupp – nästan som en privat tur – och i sådana sammanhang försöker jag alltid skapa en avslappnad och välkomnande atmosfär där deltagarna känner sig bekväma med att ställa frågor eller berätta vad de hoppas få ut av dagen. Om tempot kändes för snabbt eller något var otydligt hade jag gärna anpassat mig – öppen kommunikation gör det enkelt att justera upplevelsen i stunden. Jag är stolt över att kunna förmedla historia genom berättelser som kopplar till verkliga människor och levda erfarenheter, men jag förstår att du kanske hade hoppats på mer specifik information om Dublin. Det är värdefull återkoppling, och jag uppskattar verkligen att du delade med dig. Tack igen – jag hoppas verkligen att vi får chansen att välkomna dig tillbaka för en tur som passar dina intressen bättre.
