Things to do in Dublin, Province of Leinster: The Best Fun Activities & Games
You've probably heard that Guinness tastes better in Dublin (fresh from the factory), but what you may not know is that Dublin is a perfect destination for the whole family. No, we're not suggesting you let the kiddies drink a pint. Instead, take them to the Dublin Zoo, to feed the ducks in Stephen's Green or on a picnic in Phoenix Park. Scholars enjoy walking in the literary footsteps of such writers as Yeats and Joyce, while discerning shoppers have their pick of designer boutiques.

I did the Alice in Wonderland Escape Room here with two of my friends, and we had a wonderful time! The clues were challenging enough to keep us busy and entertained, and easy enough that we were able to get them (with a bit of work). We spent most of the time laughing at each other, and enjoyed the activity. The staff here was friendly and helpful, and this is definitely something that I would come back to in the future.
