You depart early morning from Dublin heading North. We will have a comfort break on the way and then head into the Northern Irish countryside.
Along the drive you will visit the Dark hedges, a picturesque tree-lined road that looks as if it comes straight out of a story book. The Dark Hedges represents the King’s Road in the famous television series “Game of Thrones” and is an avenue of beech trees with branches hanging over the road..
Next we visit and cross Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge which connects a 23m-deep and 20m-wide chasm between the mainland and a small island that has been used over the years by fishermen to place netting to capture migrating salmon. Following a 20 minute scenic cliff walk, you can traverse the bridge to the island with its abundance of birdlife, and to enjoy the spectacular coastal views from a different vantage point.
After lunch it is time for The Giants Causeway which is the highlight of the trip . This UNESCO World Heritage site consists of a series of over 40,000 hexagonal shaped rocks that looks like a grand set of stairs leading into the sea, the formation of which has been astounding generations. These awe-inspiring stones have resulted in inspiring many a myth and stories surrounding their origin, some of which your guide will just to be happy tell you in full technicolour!
After the amazing Giants Causeway we continue to the spectacular Dunluce Castle, precariously perched on Cliffside , once home of the notorious McDonnell clan! This tour includes a self guided tour of Dunluce where you will get an insight to its fascinating history and the peerless family who owned it.
Finally, you will arrive back in Dublin at around dinner time to reminisce about your northern adventure.
This City Pass is the best opportunity to visit places connected with Jewish heritage. You may extend the exploration of World War II's history and places connected with Jewish history with a Museum card. Visit Oscar Schindler’s Factory - the museum tells the story of the factory owner who was the inspiration for Steven Spielberg's hit movie, 'Schindler's
List'. Compare your knowledge of the history of World War II with the reality of everyday life in Nazi-occupied Cracow, and the personal dramas of its citizens. Nearby, at the Ghetto Heroes Square, you can visit the famous 'Eagle Pharmacy' with an exhibition commemorating the Holocaust of Cracow’s Jews. The last place you can visit with our
Museum card is Pomorska Street where, during World War II, the Gestapo's headquarters and prison were located. These three points on the map of Cracow are the three complementary stories about the war and the time that came after the war and the key to the full picture of the tragic history.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: to get a student discount students must have a student ID card during the tour and show it to the DiscoverCracow
