I hail from Dublin and love seeing all it has to offer, so when I planned this day, I wanted to see as much of Dublin as possible without rushing and as cheap as I possibly could (ideally free!). I wanted to do it in a way that if I was visiting Dublin, I'd be back at my hotel in time to freshen up before heading out for dinner. Starting at 9am and finishing around 5pm turned out to be perfect.
