    Exceptional and well worth the money!

    Our tour started a bite late due to traffic however our driver Jonathan was extremely apologetic. Our tour guide Siobhan was very well informed and shared a lot of information with all of us. Only feedback would be is that the park at Glendalough is quite vast. I wish that I knew what the options of where we could go were before we got off of the bus as I would have chosen my path differently. We had a lot of time there however there is a lot to see. I felt that we could have spent more time there however with a day tour and three stops, there was not enough time. Time with Jonas and the sheep at the Sheep Masters was very enjoyable and everyone loved his passion and insight into the trade.

    Our favorite part of this...

    Our favorite part of this trip was the sheep dog/sheep farm visit at the end of the trip. The young farmer obviously loves his work and the hands on parts were wonderful. Visit to the waterfall at the beginning was lovely. Would have liked to have had more time for more extensive walking, but still good. The middle part had lovely scenery as well. However, as far as we could tell there was only one food place nearby. Food we did have was OK. The tour guide was friendly but was difficult to understand. He sounded like he had his mouth too close to the mic - so the sound came out loud and muffled.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your lovely feedback! We're delighted to hear that the sheepdog experience was the highlight of your day and that you enjoyed Powerscourt Waterfall and the scenery along the way. We're sorry the commentary was difficult to understand due to the microphone and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We also appreciate your comments regarding the time available at the waterfall and the lunch options. We hope to welcome you back on another Irish adventure!

    Be open to seeing beautiful surprise stops if you get Frank as your driver. Bring an umbrella or raincoat.

    From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.

    How much does From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show cost?

    +

    Prices start at $59 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dublin usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dublin is not rushed.

    Is From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 194 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show?

    +

    Around 68 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dublin can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dublin and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does From Dublin: Wicklow, Glendalough, Waterfall & Sheepdog Show start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dublin within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Dublin?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Dublin experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway, Dublin Highlights and Hidden Gems Guided Walking Tour, The Little Museum of Dublin Famous Guided Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Dublin?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Dublin?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
