You will have 1.5 hours to explore the deep valley with its ruined Monastic City of Celtic crosses, round towers and much more.

Stunning Lough Tay, nestled in a valley in the Wicklow mountains is home to the Guinness estate. Its northern shoreline is covered by a stretch of beautiful glowing sand. Ironically, the white sand and the black peaty water of the lake form a marriage that resembles a beautiful creamy pint of Guinness.
Return to Dublin via the Sally Gap, with great photos and memories to last a lifetime.
