Informazioni sull’esperienza
Ireland is packed with hidden treasures — places where charming scenery rubs up against a rich and fascinating history. So where do you find such treasures? Well, in Glendalough and Wicklow mountains.
The ruins of the early medieval monastery at Glendalough are a particular highlight, while the sweeping forested hillsides and crystalline lakes offer the perfect backdrops. Exploring this singular landscape is easy with our Wicklow Glendalough tour.
The Glendalough and Wicklow Mountains tour departs from Dublin at 9:30 AM. After a warm welcome from your guide, and the chance to meet the other guests sharing the experience with you, the drive through the stunning Irish countryside awaits.
We will arrive at Powerscourt Waterfall at 10:30 AM. You will have approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour to explore this stunning natural wonder in the Wicklow Mountains. Feel free to walk around and capture beautiful photos of the waterfall as you take in the scenery.
After the waterfall, we will arrive at Glendalough Monastery around midday. You'll have 2 hours to explore this monastic site. Saint Kevin founded this Christian settlement in the 6th century, with most existing structures built in the 10th-12th centuries. Enjoy a leisurely lunch in a charming environment, and then we continue the tour. Unfortunately, lunch is not provided, but you will be able to get some food, in the shops, restaurants, or food trucks that are around the park.
Next stop: Hollywood. Only this time it's the original Hollywood.
Ireland's beauty is out there waiting for you. And a day trip to the Glendalough and Wicklow mountains is the perfect way to unlock the magic.

Sheepdog Demonstration
The last stop of our Wicklow day tour is to a working sheep farm. Meet a friendly local farmer who will delight in introducing you to rural life on the farm. You will be introduced to their working sheepdogs; they will explain the breed of dog used and show you how they are trained to carry out their duties. The farmer will also talk about the different breeds of sheep in Ireland and what they are used for. Then finally the main event, a sheepdog demonstration. This is a truly unique experience and gives you a great insight into how dogs are used to herd sheep, be it in the hills or in the fields using voice and whistle commands.
