Om den här aktiviteten
Leave Dublin behind and head to the Hill of Tara deep in the Irish countryside. The hill dates back to the 11th century and has many different ancient monuments and the seat of High King of Ireland.

Hop back on board your coach and head to Newgrange. To help you experience the history of this ancient land, your guide will lead you into the actual tombs of Newgrange (dating from 3000 B.C.), one of the oldest and largest Neolithic burial chambers in Europe. They even predate the Egyptian pyramids!

Finish off you tour with a quick stop in the picturesque town of Howth. Originally a fishing village, Howth is home to some of the oldest buildings in Ireland.

This full day tour from Dublin is organised by Gray Line and is a wonderful way of visiting these essential prehistoric sites. Pick up is in O´Connell Street at 9.30 and the coach is modern and comfortable. You start quietly with a short stop in Howth on the coast overlooking Dublin. There is not much to see here, but I suspect that we are filling time for the visit slot at Newgrange. An hours drive takes you to this site, where you spend half an hour with a local guide. This consists of 10 minutes outside getting background then 10 minutes inside where the winter solstice is recreated and then 10 minutes walking round the tomb. Access is controlled as you have to bus out to the site and each group is limited to 24 people. After a very good lunch stop at the Ardboyne hotel in Navan (I recommend the bar meals - but a carvery is also available) you go on to the Hill of Tara which we saw in bright sunshine and saw the archaeological remains and the splendid views. You are back in Dublin by 6. All credit to Trevor (the guide) and Alan (the driver) for a very successful day.

Trevor and Captain were great. This is my first time to Ireland and I wanted to be a complete tourist. I am so glad I took the tour. If I were to try to do this on my own, not sure if I would have gotten all the great history and life of Ireland. No only did I go to a bucket list place. Neolithic times are one of my favorite, Trevor actually was amazing with all the "other" history of Ireland. This is my first time to Ireland, but not my last. Going into the tomb at Newgrange and being part of the "reenactment" of winter solstice was just the icing on my cake. The Hill of Tara was even more than I expected. Thank you Trevor and Captain for making my experience amazing.

Great experience, and fantastic guide. Hill of Tara was better than expected. Newgrange was awe inspiring.

Our guide Eoin (spoiler pronounced Owen) was an entertaining and knowledgeable guide. We stopped in Howth on the way over for a quick break, then on to Newgrange. If you are claustrophobic you may not enjoy going into the tomb - but you really don't go in very far. There is a point where the lights are turn off - but they allow those who are uncomfortable with that to leave in advance. The views are spectacular - rolling hills and sheep. The lunch stop at a hotel offered lots of traditional choices in hofbrau style of service. The Hill of Tara is where Eoin really got to share his expertise on the history and majesty of the location. Read up on the fairy tree and come prepared with your wish. It was a wonderful and memorable day.

We really enjoyed this tour. My husband and I have never taken a guided tour like this before and we have barely left the country before ( Canada ) so we were apprehensive about driving to these sights on our own. We enjoyed meeting Des and Brian and they were informative and very nice to us. I loved that there were several stops on this tour so we got a variety of places to see. Having never been to Ireland we wanted to see everything the coach was very comfortable, and WiFi was nice to be able to check in with the family at home while we drove. Des's driving was excellent, I am very picky as a former school bus driver myself, I am rarely comfortable with the way other people drive. High marks.. . It was a nice day out and a great value.

We were picked up right in the heart of Dublin making it easy to get to the site. The tour guide, Brian, was excellent. The information provided was interesting, relevant, and fun. Newgrange itself was beautiful and the guides there did an excellent job of presenting the site in all of its glory. Brian was again wonderful on the Hill of Tara where he was able to help build a picture out of the mounds, which are really all that's left of a tremendously historical site. Great tour, would definitely take it again.

The tour was really cool. Howth was pretty interesting. It was early when we got there, so not everything was open yet, but it was really charming! Newgrange was pretty impressive. The Hill of Tara was just okay, and I could have skipped it. Especially since the chapel exhibit was closed. Regardless, I'm so happy I went!

The tomb and solar clock is set in the most breath taking country side, we were amazed by the tomb and marveled the ancient residents understanding of the movement of the sun. Makes you wish you could travel in a time machine.

We were so glad that we decided to embark on this day trip. Newgrange is an incredible site and felt like hallowed ground. It was an amazing experience and the bus driver was exceptionally pleasant and helpful. We spent a week in Ireland and this was a highlight on our trip. It's also a nice distance from Dublin, just far enough so that we felt that we had a full day of adventure, but not so far as to be exhausting. To experience such history moves the soul and provides a depth of understanding at to the age of this beautiful land.
