Which women will I hear about?

Is this a good introduction to Irish history?

Yes. Your guide introduces the context as the stories unfold, making this an engaging introduction for curious visitors.

How long is the tour?

This tour lasts two hours.

Can I book this as a private tour?

Yes. Every tour can be booked for your own group, subject to guide availability. Send your preferred date and group size for a quotation.

When can I join a public departure?

The departure time is 3.30 p.m. and the public tour costs €20 per person. Women of Ireland and Revolutionary Dublin share this slot, with each tour available on alternate dates. Enquire about your preferred day.
