Exploring Dublin with the Dublin Pass

Some of the best and cheapest ways to see all the major sights a city has to offer is through a city pass.  We often look up a city pass everywhere we go!  One of our favorites is the Dublin Pass.  With a chance to see over 33 attractions as well as great discounts, this pass really provided us a chance to see it all.

Guinness is Good for You!

First stop was the Guinness Storehouse – typically an €25 entry fee.  Seven floors all about the local brew ends at the top with a 360 degree view of Dublin and the surrounding area.  Of course, here is where you pick up your complimentary pint too!

Take a Tour of the Old Jameson Distillery

Touring the Jameson Distillery

Another inclusion is the Old Jameson Distillery Tour – typically a €20 entry fee. By stop 2 you’ve almost paid for your day pass!  This guided tour takes you back to the early days of Irish whiskey making at it’s best.  Near the end of the tour you can also volunteer to be a whiskey taste tester and see if you can taste the difference between some big name whiskey.

The National Wax Museum

I actually stepped into The National Wax Museum (a €15 entry fee) to get out of the rain and was pleased that I did.  I am not typically a fan of wax museums, but The National Wax Museum does a great job.

Starting off with famous Irish historical figures to the super hero’s and horrors areas, they provide a pretty interactive display. Visit near halloween to get an extra special viewing of some creepy wax figures!
