Since I live a little bit outside of the city, going into Dublin was always an adventure for me as a kid. The train journey seemed to take HOURS and felt as though we were going on a short little holiday with our packed lunches and clothes for every type of Irish weather. Since I…

You’ve heard of bus tours; you’ve heard of afternoon tea. Walkinstown-born, Howth-based Karen Nixon had the genius idea to combine the two, and Vintage Tea Tours is the delicious result. Hop on a classic, London-style Routemaster bus, all decked out in colourful bunting and foliage, and cruise around the city while tucking into tiny sandwiches,…

Big changes are coming to VTT (stay tuned) and so to take a break from the madness we switched off the engine and swapped our vintage wheels for some electric ones! We donned helmets and high vis vests and along with Hugh from Lazy Bike Tours we cycled out of Temple Bar and started our…
