Dublin Transport

Dublin’s public transport consists mainly of a bus network and the speedy electrical DART (Dublin Area Rapid Transit) rail service. You can purchase your ticket on the bus or at the bus ticket agencies. Daily, weekly and monthly passes are available. If you wish to cycle visit www.cycleways.com for information but beware, as central Dublin doesn’t have cycle paths.

Day trips

The James Joyce Museum housed in the Martello Tower is located 14km (9 miles) south of Dublin. It is easily reached along a scenic trail by DART to Sandycove. Alternatively an idyllic journey on the St Kevin’s Bus Service takes you through the valleys of Wicklow Mountain to Glendalough an early Celtic monastery.

A good way to see the surrounding country is by taking a trip to Cork. Taking approximately 2 hours and 20 minutes on the train it is slightly further away but well worth visiting. It is the second largest city in Ireland and has many attractions and sights to offer.
