Where To Take A Friend

    Hey Folks,

    A friend is over from Germany until Sunday evening. I'm trying to figure out where I can take him around Dublin. He's already seen the city centre, and we'll be hitting some pubs on sunday, so I was thinking of bringing him out to Howth or Killiney tomorrow (limited to public transport).

    Is there somewhere else I should bring him, anywhere more interesting?

    How about Dalkey?

    Visit the heritage centre and then go for a pint to the Queens :)

    Also how about going to Sandymount and perhaps going for a walk from there to the South BUll Wall. Nice to watch the boats coming ina dn out of Dublin Port! Lovely views and great photo opportunities

    Best place to hide a body is the river tbh.

    Phoenix Park if you get the good weather (only because it has a large enough squirrel population to consume a dead guy whole)

    Certainly do Howth, both the harbour and the summit (taking in a walk along the cliffs).

    Tbh, I don't think there's anywhere in Dublin to rival Howth.

    I don't know i love the mountains on the southside, up around the back of stillorgan and that. The veiw of pretty much the whole of Dublin with the Poolbeg chimneys as the centrepiece is a sight to behold.

    Thanks guys. As it turns out we brought him to Howth. He's from southern Germany, quite far away from the sea so we thought a walk along Howth Head would be nice, turns out he liked it alot.

    Many thanks for all the excellent suggestions.
