It's Dublin on your own for nearly a whole day. Your tour begins with a narrated drive to Powerscourt in the Wicklow Mountains. Upon arriving, you will marvel at the superbly landscaped formal Italian and Japanese gardens, and enter the estate along an avenue lined with 200-year-old beech trees. You're free to explore the gardens and view a video on the history of the estate. As the 18th-century house incorporates an array of specialty shops selling linens, woolens, crafts and souvenirs, you're welcome to browse and shop. Your tour continues with a panoramic drive to Dublin passing the main sights of this lively city where bustling shops invite you to shop 'til you drop. Along the way, feel free to stop in a local pub for lunch and a pint of Guinness.
