Excursions

As a busy capital city, Dublin has everything from the cinema to theatre, golf to bowling, darts to dance. There's history and culture in abundance. If you fancy making a reservation with your team, then here are some ideas:

MONDAY 30TH MARCH

We're off! Bags packed and ready to go, so it's time for the coach journey to the port and ferry crossing across the Irish Sea to Dublin. You've a short transfer - only about 25 minutes - into downtown Dublin ready to check into your hostel accommodation in the heart of the city. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and shops too if you're looking for provisions. Time to get dressed up and head out to the Group Leader Welcome Party at one of our featured hotpots in the city!

TUESDAY 31ST MARCH

Grab some breakfast before heading out around the corner to take a short transfer to the local sports venue in the city. All of the venues are just a short drive from the centre so you'll soon be appreciating that this is one of the great advantages of the Doxbridge experience!. Our experienced team in resort will ensure everything runs smoothly. For our 'Party Package' groups, there's loads of fun to enjoy in the city or a selection of leisure activities on offer. By the evening, it will be time to head for one of our featured nightclubs in the heart of Temple Bar!

WEDNESDAY 1ST APRIL

A visit to the Guinness Storehouse is a great way to pass some free time if you are not playing sport today and you can learn how they make the black stuff before sampling some yourself of course! If you're looking for somewhere to eat, then there are special student package menus available at the Hard Rock Cafè and other selected venues in town. Just ask us to point you in the right direction. Tomorrow is home time so make sure you prepare yourself for our final night party

THURSDAY 2ND APRIL

As with all good things this too must come to an end. Up bright and early, pack those bags (which you meant to do before bed) and check out for your return journey home. Still there is no 24 hours sat on a coach for you, and after your return ferry back across the water you will soon be back home once again with some great memories.
