Review of Dublin’s City Sightseeing hop-on hop-off bus, with route highlights, timing, value, weather tips, and honest advice before booking.
“Easy to hop on and off throughout the city. Great to sit and relax after walking all day. While driving they tell some good history. They provide headphones for different languages. They also provide maps. This bus seems to have more stops then the others.”
See Dublin’s top sights by open-top bus, with flexible hop-on access, live guides, audio commentary, and a free walking tour.
“The stops were perfect, allowing us to get off at the places we wanted to see & then resume the tour later. Some cities offered a second day for free which was nice. We did not take advantage of the free walking tour of Dublin due to time constraints. Thank you!”
Is the Dublin Pass worth it? See Guinness, castles, whiskey tours, museums, and buses, with practical advice on timing, reservations, and value.
“The Hop on Hop off bus pass is great, the kicker here is that most of the attractions require you to book a time slot which you cannot do from the app. This means you may not be able to enter your desired attractions on the day you have nominated. This happened to us at 3 attractions on a one day pass. As a combined ticket it's unlikely you will get the value you might be expecting. Look elsewhere.”
