Dublin Mythology and Folklore Tour with Irish Stories and Legends

About this activity

This tour is unlike any other in the city; an exploration of Ireland's rich tradition of storytelling, and how those stories have changed the curve of Irish History, shaped the nation, and made Dublin the wonderful city it is.

In Ireland, storytelling is more than just a pastime - it's a high art form that has changed the very course of history itself.
