Resplan
Du kommer att gå runt en av de finaste egendomarna i Irland, en av Irlands största hus, med en hisnande panorama över en av Europas finaste trädgårdar, utsedd 3: e bästa trädgården i världen av National Geographic. Beläget på 47 hektar inklusive Italienska och Japanska trädgårdar, statyer, prydnadssjöar och vandrande promenader mot en bakgrund av Wicklows Sockertoppen. Det kommer också att finnas en chans att handla berömda Avoca design halsdukar och plädar och ta en kopp kaffe på deras gourmet deli Food Market. (Inträdet är 12,50 € och betalas separat)
Detta vattenfall är ett majestätiskt mästerverk av naturen och ett absolut måste att besöka. Vattnet störtar dramatiskt från en höjd av 121 meter, vilket skapar ett fascinerande spektakel och gör det till det högsta vattenfallet i Irland. De robusta gamla klippformationerna som omger vattenfallet bidrar till dess dramatiska attraktionskraft. När du står nära Powerscourt Waterfall skapar vattnets mjuka dån en lugn och meditativ atmosfär som lugnar sinnet och lugnar själen. Visste du att att vistas i en naturlig miljö, särskilt nära ett vattenfall, kan höja ditt humör och öka din övergripande känsla av välbefinnande. Skönheten och lugnet i omgivningen kan inspirera till känslor av lycka och belåtenhet. Inträdet är €7 och betalas separat
Vi äter lunch i Wicklows prisbelönta restaurang nära Glendalough och beger oss till Glendaloughs sjöar och klosterplats, en av Irlands vackraste besöksmål. Inbäddat i den frodiga omfamningen av County Wicklow, är Irlands "Garden of Ireland", den mystiska dalen Glendalough, höljd i antika legender och inramad av det lugna vattnet i två skimrande sjöar, ett sant bevis på Irlands naturliga prakt. Glendalough är inte bara en destination; det är en resa in i hjärtat av Irlands själsliga landskap och rika kulturarv. I hjärtat av Glendalough verkar tiden stå stilla och världens bekymmer försvinner. Det är en plats där dåtid och nutid flätas samman, där det naturliga och andliga harmoniserar, och där du är inbjuden att bli en del av dess förtrollande berättelse. Glendalough lockar dig att ge dig ut på en resa till Irlands vackraste besöksmål, där magin är verklig och varje ögonblick är ett äventyr som väntar på att utvecklas.
Guinness Lake, även känd som Lough Tay, är i hjärtat av Wicklow Mountains. Det är en orörd, halvmåneformad sjö omgiven av böljande kullar och omgiven av frodiga skogar. Dess kristallklara vatten speglar himlen ovanför, vilket skapar en fantastisk och fängslande plats. Namnet "Guinness Lake" kommer från dess mörka, torviga vatten, som tillsammans med sjöns form och den vita sanden på toppen liknar en perfekt hälld pint Guinness. Guiden kommer att berätta några fascinerande historier om Guinness Family och deras egendom. Lough Tay är med i Vikings, Excalibur och några andra filmer.

Incredible tour with Rory, the entire tour was quite educational and the scenery was breathtaking. Great lunch spot, great conversation and great trip. Highly recommend
Gardens and views are amazing. Have your camera ready. Nicely paced. Powerscourt cafe has excellent dessert options
Thank you for sharing your experience! Powerscourt and county Wicklow in general is certainly a photographer's dream, great to hear you enjoyed both the spectacular gardens and the stunning views. Also great to hear the pace of the day felt just right, allowing plenty of time to soak in the scenery. We hope to welcome you back to Ireland for more memorable adventures in the future!
Just finished our first day in Ireland, traveling with my grown son, for a private, day-long tour through the Wicklow Mountains to Glendalough and the Powerscourt Water Falls and Estate Gardens. It was wonderful! Diana arrived on time, ready to inform and please. We’re from the US, so driving on the left side felt a bit uneasy at first, but Diana took us from busy city streets in Dublin to rolling tight roads in the Wicklow Mountains with safe and competent driving. She was a wealth of knowledge about the history and landscape of the mountains and the monastic sites we saw and had researched particular questions we had about the Glendalough mythology and history that we asked about in advance of our trip. She provided ample background and introduction at each site but also gave us space and time to unhurriedly explore and experience the areas on our own. The tour itself cost approximately $100/hour for the two of each, not including the nominal cost of admission to each of the two sites. I am able to easily and unconditionally recommend Diana and Gateway to Ireland if you are looking for a stress-free, beautiful experience of the Wicklow Mountains/Glendalough and Powerscourt Estate in Ireland.
Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review. We're honoured that your first day in Ireland was spent exploring the Wicklow Mountains, Glendalough and Powerscourt with us. Starting a trip with a journey through the "Garden of Ireland" is a wonderful way to experience Ireland's natural beauty, history and culture. It was a pleasure helping bring the stories of Glendalough to life and discussing the history and mythology that make this ancient monastic settlement so special. We're especially pleased that the balance between guided commentary and independent exploration helped you enjoy the day at your own pace. Once again thank you for your trust, your curiosity and your recommendation. We hope the memories of Wicklow's mountain landscapes, historic sites and spectacular scenery remain a highlight of your Irish adventure for months to come.
We had a fantastic day with Rory and saw everything we hoped to see. Beautiful scenery and Rory was a great guide giving lots of interesting information. Loved our delicious lunch spot. Van was very comfy. Pickup and dropoff at our hotel was easy. Communication was perfect. 10/10 recommend this day trip.

I'm a local but I very much enjoyed this tour with a friend who was visiting Ireland. The guide was very knowledgeable and made the atmosphere relaxed. Would recommend.
Thank you for your lovely review! It's always a special compliment when someone from Ireland enjoys the tour as much as a visitor. We're delighted that both you and your friend had a relaxed and enjoyable day and that the guide's knowledge helped bring the places and stories to life. One of our goals is to help guests see Ireland from a fresh perspective, whether it's their first visit or they've lived here for years. Thanks once again for the recommendation - we truly appreciate it!
I had an amazing experience with Wicklow Mountain Tours in Dublin, especially thanks to our guide Diana. She was absolutely lovely to deal with, incredibly knowledgeable, and created such a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere throughout the day. As a solo female traveller, having Diana as my guide made me feel genuinely safe and comfortable, which honestly makes such a difference when travelling alone. She never rushed me, was thoughtful and accommodating, and made the whole experience feel personal rather than like a generic tourist tour. What I appreciated most was that the day felt authentic and local, not overly commercial or touristy. Diana clearly knows the area deeply and tailored the experience to feel more personal and connected to the real Ireland. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Dublin, especially solo travellers wanting a memorable and comfortable experience.

Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Dublin, especially solo travellers wanting a memorable and comfortable experience.
We had a wonderful day with Diana today. I am travelling with my husband from Australia.
Had a great day out pick up am and drop off. Great day in the country.
