On our sightseeing bus route through Dublin are many great stops with lots to explore and experience. Some of them are, however, more obvious than others. While stops like Trinity College, Guinness Storehouse, St. Patrick’s Cathedral or Phoenix Park are not only sights you simply have to visit when staying in Dublin, you can also easily see them from the bus route and stops. Other stops that don’t have any attractions in plain sight might on the other hand be skipped. We’ll let you know which underrated bus stops on our route you shouldn’t miss!
Stop 13 – Parkgate Street
After our stop in Phoenix Park, there’s Parkgate Street. And while it might appear a bit nondescript at first, the stop is perfect for a little pause during your busy sightseeing day: Here, you’ll find the Croppies Memorial Park right next to the Sean Heuston Bridge. The small but lovely park offers quiet moments right in the city. And in its center the bronze monument “Anna Livia” stands as the personification of the River Liffey. If you also want a quick bite or a drink or you end your sightseeing tour on this stop, why not visit Ryan’s Pub right next to the park. It is one of the oldest authentic Victorian pubs in Dublin and dates back to 1896. The clock above the pubs’s bar, made by Frengly Brother in Germany, is actually the oldest indoor two-faced clock in Ireland – and it always shows a wrong, a little earlier time, making sure that people don’t miss their train at the nearby Heuston station.Stop 18 – O’Connell Street
Yes, O’Connell Street is one of the best known streets in Dublin and on your way to sights, bars and restaurants, you’ll certainly walk the city’s main road several times. But stop here during your sightseeing tour? Yes, you certainly should! Firstly, of course, the street and crossing Henry Street are perfect to go for a shopping spree. Here, you’ll find everything from bigger international chains to smaller independent shops and second hand stores. And secondly, there are several sights close together: the Spire, the GPO, a monument of nationalist leader Daniel O’Connell and the new portal on Talbot Street. Through the digital window you can connect to people from all over the world, for example New York, Philadelphia, Lublin or Vilnius.Stop 22 – Bord Gáis Energy Theatre
Stop 22 is the furthest to the east on our route and brings you to a part of the city that is less touristy. That, however, doesn’t mean that it is not worth visiting! When getting of the bus at this stop, you have the opportunity to visit Bord Gáis Energy Theatre, for example. The theatre is not only an iconic architectural landmark but it also commonly features internationally renowned plays and artists. Right next to it, there’s the TechHub district, an area where you’ll find all the big digital companies in their modern offices overlooking the Liffey. And then, when you walk a bit further, you can also visit the Aviva Stadium. The impressive rugby- and footballstadium is home to the Irish national football team and often hosts concerts by international artists – like Taylor Swift, Metallica or Take That.Don’t miss the underrated stops on our route through Dublin
