What makes Wicklow & Glendalough Day Tour with Sheepdog Demo from Dublin a unique experience ?
Depart from Dublin at 09:30am. Meet your guide and fellow travellers at the Molly Malone Statue on Suffolk Street to begin an unforgettable day exploring Co. Wicklow, known as the ‘Garden of Ireland’.
Situated in the “valley of the two lakes,” Glendalough is a historic gem surrounded by breathtaking scenery. It was created as a monastery retreat in the sixth century by Saint Kevin. Wandering around the remnants of the ancient city, visitors can learn about Ireland’s spiritual and historical heritage. You can also have lunch at a neighbouring restaurant.
Direction to Hollywood, the original settlement called before its namesake in California, combines historical intrigue with scenic vistas. A playful homage to its well-known predecessor, Wicklow’s take on the Hollywood sign is worth spotting.
A typical Irish sheep farm’s sheepdog demonstration highlights various aspects of farm life, such as raising sheep and cultivating organic vegetables. The demonstration of a shepherd using his dogs to guide his sheep is the highlight and provides a unique insight into the day-to-day activities in Wicklow.
We arrive back in Dublin’s fair city at around 4:30 pm.
