IRRESISTIBLY IRISH, ENDLESSLY FUN FOR FAMILIES... Step dancers invite you to kick up your heels, amphibious “ducks,” horse-drawn carriages and a treasure hunt reveal secrets centuries old in Dublin!

1. ARRIVE DUBLIN... “DUCKS,” DANCING & DINNER Tour begins: 3:30 PM, Conrad Dublin. A transfer is included from Dublin Airport to the Conrad Dublin hotel, centrally located in the heart of Ireland’s capital city steps from St. Stephen’s Green. With a bustling harbor and a river running through the middle of the city, the best way to explore Dublin is by land and on water! Board our private “DUKW” (like a “duck,” it’s amphibious!) for a sightseeing tour that splashes into the water right from the road so you can get a closer look at all sides of the city, from Viking Dublin to its medieval core and Georgian squares, Trinity College and St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Join us for a welcome reception and dinner tonight, where we kick off a week of fun with singing and Irish step dancing lessons. Meals D

TREASURE HUNT & GHOSTLY CARRIAGE RIDE Dublin dates back to the 9th century when seafaring Vikings founded a settlement here; you can still find remnants of its ancient history – along with costumed characters of days past and today’s treasure hunt clues – in the old streets you explore with us this morning. After a free afternoon and dinner on your own, climb aboard a horse-drawn carriage through haunted Dublin to discover the spirit of the city at night. Meals BL
