We were taken on the DART since we given to understand that it was the perfect way to see Dublin Bay and get a good flavour of the history of the area. Unfortunately there is little to see from the train and our Guide wasn't...More

We purchased our 7 days (168 hours) Leap Visitor's Cards within hours of arriving at the Dublin Bus Head Office at 59 O'Connell Street. At 40 Euros each they were a relative bargain and we used them every day in and out of Dublin City...More

I was told that everything in Dublin is within walking distance but if you want to explore, walking is not a time saver and it only allows you to explore Dublin City. I bought a leap card for a 3 day unlimited pass online and...More

For our short visit to Dublin, the DART was great for getting us from our apartment in Ballsbridge into Dublin city centre. There at trams roughly every 15 - 20 minutes, which took around 10 minutes to get into the centre of Dublin. There are...More

A decent chunk of my time spent transiting in Dublin was via the Dart. It isn't the most modern transit option I have seen, but it does have free wifi on each train so that was nice. However, the train seemed to be easily cancelled...More

We took the dart from Connolly to Sandymount as we were staying in The Intercontinental Dublin. A two minute walk. It was 2.20 euros single per adult. We also went from Sandymount to Pearse station. Same price. DART can be busy but for short journeys...More

The DART was getting to the suburbs of Dublin. The trip to Bray was particularly fun, as the train snaked along a cliffside next to the Irish Sea. We took the DART back to Dun Laoughaire, enjoyed dinner with friends, then caught it back into...More

Clean, modern, pet friendly transportation to nearby communities outside of Dublin! Easy to navigate and you can use your LEAP card!

We found out about this train that goes from one side of Dublin Bay to the other - from Howth to Greystones. We never left the train but you can hop off and on. We had a great time seeing all the sea side resorts...More

I would echo what's already been said - either the hop on hop off bus, or the leap card. The DART is good if your hotel's slightly out of town and on the DART route, but otherwise on of the many buses are accessible using... More
