If you fancy getting out of the busy city and seeing some of the lovely harbour villages along the coast, then this is the tour for you! This tour has a bit of everything - village life, cliff top views, markets, fish and chips, manicured gardens, butterfly houses and even medieval history. During this tour we will take in the villages of Howth and Malahide, and will see how they have changed over the years as well as what has remained unchanged. One of my favourite spots that I'll take you to is Malahide Castle. I have many fond memories of playing football on the grounds of the castle lands as the owners of this estate where very open to visitors. I'm sure not many people except royalty can say they got to play football around a castle! For more anecdotes and a taste of life outside the city, look no further than this tour!
