A Self Guided Walking Tour of Dublin's Docklands

Despre activitate

On this self-guided audio tour, you will journey through 200 years of Irish heroes, heartache and dynamic national change. Trace the story of the city’s industry with Jack Redmond, a Dublin local, and follow the ebbs and flows that shaped the renowned Irish diaspora, spreading its influence far and wide.

Jack will guide you through some chapters of the city‘s past and present. We‘ll pass George‘s Dock, a former working dock that was filled in 1927. You‘ll learn about how this area was created as we walk alongside the River Liffey, taking in various monuments, including the Triumphal Arch and the Famine Memorial. You‘ll meet some of the first Dubliners and most beloved figures in Irish history. You‘ll see the evolution of this area, epitomized by the headquarters of multinational tech companies based in 18th century warehouses and bustling venues like the BrewDog Outpost Dublin brewery and Grand Canal Square
