Go beyond 'The Pale' and discover dynamic Dublin, Ireland's beloved capital. Rising beautifully from the bay at the mouth of the River Liffey, Dublin had become Ireland's principal settlement by the 12th Century, when the Anglo-Norman invasion reached the island. The city rapidly expanded during the 17th Century, becoming at one brief point the second largest city in the British Empire! It is now regarded as a global city and center for education, arts, and industry. The streets of Dublin are vibrant, cultural and historical, with treasured discoveries around each corner - beyond the commanding Dublin Castle, visitors to Ireland's capital can discover St. Patrick's Cathedral, Christchurch Cathedral, the Guinness Brewery, Kilmainham Jail, Temple Bar, and the Dublin Docklands.

Dublin is best discovered on a guided bicycle tour, where a guide can fill you in on the culture and history of a city which raised such influential figures as Oscar Wilde, Samuel Beckett, James Joyce, and Francis Bacon. Bike through 'The Big Smoke' on the Dublin City E-Bike Tour or the Taste of Dublin Bike Tour. Either option promises a rewarding ride, the option of bike rental, and everlasting memories of the Emerald Isle.
