Dublin, Ireland

Dublin, Ireland

Enjoy a day in emerald Ireland’s buzzing capital city on a Carnival cruise to Dublin, where there’s always a song to sing, a joke to tell, and a pint to sink. Laid-back yet lively Dublin, Ireland, is crammed with a history of revolutionaries and literary heroes that dates back at least a millennium and a half. Having sustained and succeeded Gaelic, Viking, Norman, and English invasions during the course of this time, the city bears influences from all these cultures. Immerse yourself in this storied past as you stroll through Georgian terraces on Merrion Square, near the National Gallery where Picasso paintings compete with Jack Yeats’ Irish landscapes. Browse for Irish cheeses and organic wines at the Temple Bar market and enjoy a picnic lunch on lush St. Stephen’s Green.
