Twice Now ...

That I have been to Dublin. The first was with a tour for St Patrick's Day in March 2006. I travelled with PP Travel - see my homepage for a link to their site. So I can't give many tips, as it was all organised for me.

However, I visited again recently, on my way to Galway to stay with friends. On both occasions, I would have to say ... (and sorry to all Dubliners)

I didn't like it.

I think it has a lot less character than other parts of Ireland, it was a bit grey and bland, and other than the pubs, not much else to see and do!

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Lots of drinking!
  • Cons:A bit boring if you're not a drinker ...
