What to expect

As well as exploring the area, this tour will be partly done in the Irish language by local teacher and historian Sean Fennell. Perfect for those learning Irish or an interest in beginning to explore our native tongue.


The tour will begin at Milltown Cemetery and finish at Dunvilles Park / Hawthorne Pub.

Other stops of interest will be Falls Park, City Cemetery, James Connolly Visitor Centre, Cultúrlann McAdam Ó Fiaich and Royal Victoria Hospital.


After the tour we have members of The Rapparees (Pogue's tribute band) do a trad session at Hawthorn Pub at 5pm.

5 star review

"I brought along 4 of my Aussie mates to the tour upon the recommendation of a colleague in Melbourne. I wasn't disappointed. The guide was very interesting and friendly, was always in jovial mood and had a vast knowledge of the city and its sights. The walking tour was at a steady but casual pace and was well worth the reasonable price we paid. Thanks guys. I'll be back!"
