Start your walking tour in the.courtyards and gardens of Dublin Castle, you'll see the medieval towers, a section of city wall and one of the most outstanding museums in the world, before passing the Chester Beatty Library Galleries. Moving on to the 17th/18th century Huguenot area you will wander past a modern apartment building which features scenes from Gulliver's Travels, that great work penned by the one-time Dean of St Patrick's, Jonathan Swift.

Next admire the panoramic views of St Patrick's Cathedral. Founded by a Norman archbishop in the 12th century it is reputed to be the site where St Patrick baptized the people of the area in the 5th century.

You will visit a beautiful park, laid out and paid for by the famous Guinness family, in the park there is also a showpiece called the Literary Parade which highlights the pantheon of famous Dublin writers, from Oscar Wilde to George Bernard Shaw.

Find out how the world-famous brewery of Guinness helped to lift this area from depressing slums into a thriving community. Your walking tour will then take you around the neighbors of St Patrick's including the deanery, a police station housed in a one-time medieval archbishop's palace and you will also visit Marsh's Library, Ireland's first public library (and believed to be haunted!). Your walking tour will conclude inside St Patrick’s Cathedral
