A few more things...

Twice I have done the CONNOISSEUR EXPERIENCE at the Guinness Factory and it was great...get a couple pints and some great stories. Also get to learn how to pour a Guinness. Also, the Jameson Distillery tour is pretty fun...remember at the beginning they will ask for some volunteers...raise your hand as at the end they have you do a taste test between bourbon, scotch and whiskey... St. Mychans has a great crypt with "mummies" that were Crusaders... Also, Temple Bar is overrated and very expensive, but its like going to New Orleans and not going to Bourbon St... Near the stadium if you are closer to Merrion/Ball's Bridge...Paddy Cullens and the Bridge 1859 are great pubs

Not sure yet. Only got the tickets today.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 03/21/23 05:22 PM ET
I'd make it the end of your trip - or you'll be so tired on Day One.**
BobG • 03/21/23 05:30 PM ET
Yes, definitely flying back the day after the game.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 03/21/23 05:33 PM ET
Leo Burdock’s next to Temple Bar if you are a fish and chips person…
VT BronzeBacker • 03/21/23 04:26 PM ET
TB is the Bourbon St of Dublin. Pricy tourist trap.**
