Journey with our member of the ICA (Irish Citizen Army) as he tells you about the devastating effects of the 1913 Lockout such as seeing children dying of starvation in the tenements. Learn how he and countless others were left jobless, oppressed and craving social change, especially after Ireland suffered the violence of its first Bloody Sunday. Listen, as he does, to James Connolly and the social leaders who promised change and a brighter future if they followed them into battle for it. Meet our member of the Cumann na mBan (the women’s faction of the Irish Volunteers) who was so moved by Padraig Pearse’s graveside speech at the funeral of the famous Fenian Jeremiah O’Donovan Rossa in 1915 she signed up the following day. Discover the key and dangerous roles these women, numbering nearly a quarter of those who rose that week, played in the battles that Easter. In the reading of the 1916 Proclamation of Independence and in their own words hear how they were fighting not only for the emancipation of Ireland but for a better future for Irish women.  On the 1916 Rise of the Rebels Tour you will travel with our two rebels as they take you through the action all over the city during Easter week. See and hear about the sites where it all happened, some you may know and some whose histories have been less explored until now. From one of The Abbey Theatre’s leading actors, Sean Connolly, leading the first charge and firing the first shots of the Rising; resulting in the first casualty at City Hall as the rebels tried to take Dublin Castle. To Richmond Barracks where all the captured rebels plus many who were falsely accused of being so were imprisoned before the executions in Kilmainham. In-between discover where the fiercest battles were fought including The Four Courts and South Dublin Union. Hear the testimonies of the brave and brazen, such as the handful of men who took on the might of a battalion around Mount Street, and the women who dodged bullets to deliver messages all over the city. Then there are the stories of the trenches and strange amnesties in the gunfire torn St. Stephens Green and the dangerous women who patrolled its gates.  Come with us to the GPO, The General Post Office, which acted as the headquarters for the rebels during the week of The 1916 Easter Rising. It was outside here that Padraig Pearse read out The Proclamation of Independence and decreed a free and equal Ireland for all. Inside Pearse along with 4 of the other signatories of the Proclamation, James Connolly, Tom Clarke, Sean MacDiarmada and Joseph Plunkett orchestrated the insurrection as bullets rained down upon the building. See the bullet holes that are still visible scars on the GPO today. At the end of the week they tunnelled their way through the homes on neighbouring Moore Street to escape the burning GPO as shells from the gunship Helga blasted them and the flames around them raged so hot the glass inside was melting. Follow the path of the doomed revolutionaries as they ran the gauntlet under heavy machine gun fire to Moore Street and visit the site of one of The Rising’s most tragic deaths, that of The O’Rahilly. It was here around Moore Street where The O’Rahilly penned his last goodbyes to his wife and hiding inside its beleaguered walls the remaining rebels decided to surrender.  The 1916 Rise of Rebels Bus Tour will show you the heart of the rebellion using the actual words and testimonies of the men and women who fought for Irish Independence in the 1916 Easter Rising.

Con el Tour The Northside aprenderá aspectos de la historia de Dublín y sus leyendas más escalofriantes. Entre estas destacan: La historia de Lord Norbury, conocido por ser el infame y sádico “Juez Colgante” que presidió el juicio de Robert Emmet, un patriota irlandés que lucho por la emancipación de Irlanda. Lord Norbury fue odiado por el pueblo irlandés en vida y en la muerte regresó para continuar un reinado de terror. La leyenda de Scaldbrother, el infame ladrón medieval cuyo tesoro enterrado aún puede yacer en un laberinto de túneles debajo de Smithfield. La fábula sobre el mendigo apuesto y deforme Billy Davis, o “Billy the Bowl”, aterrorizó las calles del suburbio Grangegorman en el siglo XVIII. Para los más valientes el tour les guía por Hendrick Street, donde en el pasado habían dos de las casas más embrujadas de Dublín. Entre estas dos casas Hendrick Street era hogar de más de seis fantasmas diferentes. En la década de 1960 estas casas fueron derribadas, pero ¿y los fantasmas? ¿Y qué hay del hospital embrujado? Los fantasmas de las enfermeras han sido vistos durante años por toda la manzana ¿Podrían ser la razón por la que las sillas de las oficinas del edificio adyacente giran por sí mismas? ¿O por lo que los juguetes electrónicos se encienden y apagan solos? Además, el tour se aventura en el parque Croppies Acre. Este lugar fue abandonado durante muchos años, y en el siglo XX fue utilizado como campo de fútbol. La parte sorprendente de este lugar es que durante la rebelión de 1798 el parque se utilizó como fosa común para los cientos de rebeldes ejecutados. ¡Los espíritus que viven en esta zona muchas veces intentar comunicarse! La atracción considerada como la más macabra de Irlanda es la Iglesia de Saint Michan, que sirvió de inspiración para el joven Bram Stoker, nativo de Clontraf y autor de Drácula. Otra parada del tour es la pared donde, en el siglo XX, hubo una aparición de la Virgen María. Miles de transeúntes afirman haber visto dicha imagen ¿Puedes?   Testimonios: “Fue uno de los mejores tours de fantasmas en los que he estado. Todo el grupo sintió que la temperatura bajada cuando salíamos de la Abadía de Saint Mary. Fue realmente extraño.” Alison, San Francisco, California “Me gustó que se tomaran el tema en serio. Los lugares del tour están realmente embrujados, y las personas sensibles del tour definitivamente parecían estar experimentando algo. Hendrick Street fue interesante.” Paul, Dallas, Texas “Lo que me gustó del Tour The Northside es cuán comunes son los lugares: tiendas, museos y parques que la gente usa todos los días sin darse cuenta de lo que sucedió allí. Nunca he sido realmente creyente, pero juro que vi a alguien caminando por el Croppies Acre, y en mis fotografías salen algunas cosas realmente raras.” Sarah, Edimburgo, Escocia “¡Muchas gracias! ¡Vivo en Hendrick Street, y después de su tour, creo que tendré que mudarme!” Ciaran, Dublín

Everything from the walls and furniture to the very glass you sip your beverage out of is made of natural ice. After a welcome, freshly made cocktail in the lounge, snuggle into the provided winter wear and savor the ambient light and ice sculptures of the Icebar.
