説明

Experience the unsurpassed beauty of rural Ireland during this full-day excursion to Wicklow, Glendalough and Powerscourt. The splendor starts quickly as Dublin gives way to neighboring Country Wicklow – a natural wonderland of domed granite mountains penetrated by deep glens and wooded valleys. It certainly deserves its nickname, “The Garden of Ireland.”In Glendalough, you’ll stop for morning coffee and a guided tour of the ancient monastic site here, its ruined 1000-year-old churches and famous 100-foot Round Tower arrayed around two silvery mountain lakes. After a relaxing lunch at an area hotel or restaurant, your country drive continues on to magnificent Powerscourt House & Gardens. This estate includes some 50 acres of formal gardens, sweeping terraces, ornamental lakes with secret hollows, rambling walks and walled gardens; many of its plantings date from the 19th century. Five elegant terraces step down from the Palladian Mansion, built around a 14th-century castle, to a lake Sugarloaf Mountain looming majestically in the background. A fire gutted the house in 1974, though you would never know this as you browse its suite of bespoke shops each with its own style and character. You’ll have ample time to enjoy all that Powerscourt has to offer.

Helpful Hints

  • Wear weather-appropriate clothing; include a light raincoat or umbrella.
  • Flat, comfortable walking shoes are recommended.
  • Bring a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen as needed.
  • The visits to Glendalough and Powerscourt Gardens involve a moderate amount of walking over uneven surfaces, mainly at guests’ own discretion. Some of the sites are not wheelchair accessible and therefore, this tour is not available to guests who utilize one. Guests with mobility concerns are cautioned to carefully evaluate their personal level of stamina before participating. The order of sites visited may vary.
