Viking Splash School Tours is a great way to see the sights of Dublin – both on land and water! Travelling on board our Amphibious World War II vehicles (DUKWs) you are taken on a spellbinding tour of Dublin. Our costumed Viking Tour Guides ensure you not only hear the history of Viking Dublin, but also pass by sights such as St Patricks and Christchurch cathedrals, Trinity College, Government Buildings and Georgian Dublin. The climax of the tour sees our Viking DUKWs splash into the water at the newly developed Grand Canal Docklands where the recording studio of U2 and much more are explored.
Coach Parking available at our bus stop on BULL ALLEY ST
“The tour was both educational and enjoyable. It was an ideal day out.” – School Tour Visitor 2013
“The children had a wonderful day ~ best school tour ever was echoed by many of them. Organisation and attention to detail was first class. Children loved the the Viking Splash Tour & their visit to Croke Park. We had excellent guides for both and this really added to the tour. From booking to when we left Croke Park it was a very positive experience.” – School Tour Visitor 2013
