Dublin is such a lively city, filled with quaint pubs, plenty of music and good craic (gossip)!

Here are my top 5 things to see and do in 48 hours!

1. As we only had 48 hours here, there wasn’t much time to get off the beaten track.

We found the hop on hop off bus a handy way to get around and with live commentary on most of the buses, it was informative and hilarious. It’s a small city so you can pack a lot in and cover most of the sights!

You’ll see Dublin Castle (pictured), Kilmainham Gaol, National Museum of Ireland, Irish Whiskey Museum, Irish Museum of Modern Art, The Temple Bar District and so much more!

2. An absolute must see is the Teeling Whiskey Distillery – the only working distillery in Dublin!

The tour here was fantastic! And this is coming from someone who doesn’t like whiskey!

3. The iconic Guinness factory is another must!

As there is quite a lot of information to take in, a guided tour rather than the standard self-guided (which can easily be booked online) is recommended here.

Tasting sessions, personalised pints and other extras can be added to your tour here.

4. Pubs!

Ireland is synonymous with pubs and bars – so much so that you’ll find an Irish pub in most major cities around the world!

With live music, a fun and friendly atmosphere, hearty meals and of course pints of guinness, we set off to find our favourite.

Our favourite pubs were The Palace on Fleet Street (the main street of the Temple Bar District) and The Stags Head just outside of the Temple Bar District.

5. Finally, the book of Kells.

The library was phenomenal! It was a great example of the history here in Dublin and a nice break from pubs and breweries. I recommend to book online to avoid queues.
