SAMPLE PLACES THAT CAN BE VISITED

Places to visit include:


Powerscourt gardens & waterfall

Powerscourt House today reflects centuries of history as the site dates back to the castle of c.1300. It contains some of the finest 18th century interiors in Ireland.

Powerscourt Garden is a 45 acres blend of formal gardens, sweeping terraces, statuary and ornamental lakes together with secret hollows, rambling walks, walled gardens and over 200 variations of trees and shrubs.

Powerscourt Waterfall is Ireland's highest at 121m (398ft.) and is surrounded by woods and specimen trees. Visitors have been coming to Powerscourt Waterfall for over 200 years, attracted by the beautiful cascade flowing down into the Dargle river.


Sally Gap & Lough Tay

Sally Gap is Northwest of the village of Laragh, there are spectacular views of the surrounding blanket bog and the Wicklow Mountains. Sally Gap is one of two east-to-west passes across the Wicklow Mountains and the narrow road running through it passes above the dark waters of Lough Tay and Lough Dan. It also passes over the Luggula Estate, which covers most of the valley as far as Lough Dan and the area forms part of the famed walking trail, known as the Wicklow Way.


Several major films have been filmed in Wicklow Mountains National Park and surrounding areas, including Braveheart, Excalibur, Michael Collins, and, of course, Ps. I Love You!, where you can visit the famous Ps.I Love You! bridge.


Glendalough

Glendalough (Irish: Gleann Da Loch, meaning Glen of Two Lakes) is a glacial valley

located in County Wicklow, Ireland, renowned for its Early Medieval monastic

settlement founded in the 6th century by St Kevin, a hermit priest, and

destroyed in 1398 by English troops. It is one of the most visited places in Ireland.

Reviews

Matthew Byrne is a wonderful guide and a very nice person. We took two tours and they were well organized and allowed us to see some of the sights we wished to see outside Dublin. The tours are a great value for the money and we would highly recommend them.
