Full-Day Boyne Valley Tour from Dublin
With your private driver-guide leading the way, today you'll head east to visit a few historical and sacred sites in Ireland. Declared a World Heritage Site in 1993, Bru Na Boinne is host to a remarkably fascinating, if somewhat mysterious, history. Found approximately 40 kilometers north of Dublin and on a slight river peninsula and bordering the meandering Boyne River, Bru Na Boinne is host to a cluster of prehistoric monuments. Ranging from the mid-30th century BCE to the 3rd century BCE, some of the sites predate the Egyptian pyramids, while others serve as magnificent examples of standing stones, burial mounds, and seemingly significant sites that align with astrological cycles. A site often overlooked on trips to Ireland, it surely one of the most incredible places to visit on the Emerald Isle. Later in the day, and after a break for lunch (not included) you'll travel to Trim Castle, which is likely the best-preserved and most impressive example of Anglo-Norman castle architecture in Ireland. It offers a spectacular insight into the lives and traditions of the people from the middle ages and leads well into your last stop of the day, The Hill of Tara. Best known for having been the royal residence of the ancient High Kings that ruled Ireland in Celtic times and beyond, it is said that a quarter of Ireland's landscape can be seen from this hill. You'll have the time to take in this spectacular vista before heading back to your hotel in Dublin.
