Recently a good friend of mine from Australia came to visit
me in Dublin. He is a real history buff but Ireland has never been one of his
specialties, so he was quite blown away to find out that Dublin had a rich
Viking history. The first thing he wanted to do was check out the Viking Tours
Dublin had to offer. We headed down to the tourist office and collected what
seemed like hundreds of leaflets. There are hundreds of Viking Tours Dublin
likes to rave about. We then headed straight for tripadvisor and read a bit
about what people had to say about them. There are bus tours and walking tours
available when it comes to Viking themed tours, but having lived in the very
city centre of Dublin for a number of years now I decided to be decisive on
this one (for once). The reason I chose to only look at the walking Viking
tours Dublin offers is because so much of Dublin’s Viking history is
inaccessible by bus. A lot of Dublin’s Viking remains are off the beaten path
and in pedestrianized areas such as Temple Bar. For example the remaining
section of Dublin’s Viking wall next to the City Council’s offices, you wouldn’t
be able to see a thing from a bus. Or even a quiet amble down Fishamble Street,
one of Dublin’s original Viking Streets would be a highlight of a Viking tour,
but once again not possible on a bus. The next beautiful day we have (or
alternatively his last day in Ireland if we don’t see any sun) we are going to
go for a walk around the old Viking and Medieval area of Dublin!
