James Joyce Centre Best of IgoUgo

Attraction | "James Joyce Center"

Quote:
While the James Joyce center is a must-see for anyone wanting to truly experience Dublin, it probably will only require about half an hour to maybe an hour of your time. The best time to go is of course on Bloomsday, June 16. The center has lectures and performances from Ulysses. However, after the third performance of the exact same passage from yet another actor, you'll be ready to move on to somewhere else in the city.

Guinness Storehouse Best of IgoUgo

Attraction

Quote:
This is an absolute must-see! You have not experienced Dublin until you have a full knowledge of Guinness! You will be told by every true Irish person with the upmost seriousness that Guinness is like medicine! And trust me you have not tasted Guinness until you have drank it at Gravity, the pub at the top of the storehouse! It comes complete with a shamrock on top and a birdseye view of the city. Even my friends who don't drink enjoyed this tour!
