The Historic Old Liffey Ferry Guided Tour in Dublin

About this activity

The historic Old Liffey Ferry was once used to transport dock workers in the late 20th Century from their place of living on one side of the river in the local maritime villages there, to the busy port of Dublin on the other side of the river. Our tour offers passengers the chance to experience the history first hand. Our guides are all trained in-house and possess a natural love of the history of the ferry, the Port, the River, the City and those who have called it home throughout the years.
