Are you tired of spending your touristy afternoons stuck on a stuffy bus listening to a disinterested tour guide going through the motions? Well you can be guaranteed a different experience entirely on the Dublin Viking Splash Tour. The tour features authentic Viking tour guides complete with horned hats and encouraging roars. The tour itself takes place on both land and sea in original WWII amphibious vehicles and spans from Stephen’s Green down through medieval and Georgian Dublin and takes to the Grand Canal Harbour so you can get a different view of the city.

The point of this tour is to eschew the conventions of usual city bus tours and the Viking tour guides make sure of this. Once you have donned your own horned Viking helmet you are at the mercy of both the changeable Irish weather and your Viking tour guide’s desire to have you shout and roar at various points to ensure a unique experience. Seeing as sightseeing in Dublin is often a battle against the weather it’s perhaps best to succumb to a tour that embraces the elements and helps you stay positive and engaged through the raindrops.
