Top-Rated Dublin Shore Excursions

Most ships berth in Dublin Port, a few kilometers east of the center, while some use Dún Laoghaire on the bay to the south. In town the usual stops are Trinity College and the Book of Kells, St Patrick’s Cathedral and the Guinness Storehouse; outside it, the Wicklow Mountains and the monastic site at Glendalough or the fishing village of Howth.

Tours, prices and reviews from Viator, a Tripadvisor company — prices are per person, from, and were checked October 28, 2026. Shore Excursions may earn a commission when you book, at no extra cost to you. Always allow a generous buffer to be back on board before all-aboard time.
