About this Event

Historical ‘Walkies’ – Dog friendly walking tours

Do you like history / heritage and doing things with your dog? Me too! That’s why I have started Historical ‘Walkies’ a dog friendly walking tour of Dublin.

Bring your favourite pupper along as we discover different parts of Dublin.


Our first outing is Merrion Square where we will meet at the Oscar Wilde statue and I'll tell you a little about the man but move on quickly to his much more interesting father William. We’ll discuss the formation of the square, some characters who have lived there & the architectural features of the famous square amongst other things.


Following from my successful Culture Night Walking Tour ‘From The Season to Surgeons – the architectural and social history of Merrion Square’ in *ahem 2018 where I received such great comments as

“I went it was grand” – Grace D

“It didn’t rain” – Suzanne S

“I learned stuff” – Gail O’D

But don’t just listen to these glowing reviews come along and see for yourself.


Don’t have a dog? Don’t worry – as long as you like dogs this tour is for you – all our tours are human friendly.
