Explore the beautiful city of Dublin and its fascinating literary history and culture.

See where these literary luminaries lived on Merrion Square and visit the pubs and bookshops they frequented.
Your guide will show you the status of Wilde and Yeats, and stop for some stories and photos outside the magnificent St Patrick’s Cathedral, where Jonathan Swift is buried. Visit Sweny’s Pharmacy and pop your head into the illustrious and very grand coffee shop of Bewley’s on Grafton Street, an inspiring place for Joyce to write!
