City Sightseeing Dublin: Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tour & Tickets

With every paying adult, up to two children travel completely free. You do not need to add child tickets to your online basket; the guide or driver will issue the complimentary child passes directly when you board the bus.

Holders of 48 or 72-hour tickets receive one free admission to either the Irish Whiskey Museum (on College Green) OR the World of Illusion. Simply present your bus boarding pass at the attraction entrance.

The 72-hour ticket is the ultimate value package, including 72 hours of unlimited hop-on hop-off bus travel, a Guided Sightseeing Bike Tour, free entry to the Irish Whiskey Museum or World of Illusion, the 3-hour guided walking tour, and a '2-for-1' meal deal at O'Shea's Merchant.

Every City Sightseeing Dublin ticket (24h, 48h, and 72h) includes 2 free child passes per adult, a free 3-hour guided walking tour, a 10% discount on day trips with Irish Day Tours, and a 15% discount on The Gravedigger Ghost Bus Tour.

A complete continuous loop of the City Sightseeing Dublin route without hopping off takes approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes (135 minutes), depending on city traffic.

Your ticket is valid by the hour for exactly 24, 48, or 72 hours from the moment you first activate it on the bus. For example, a 24-hour ticket scanned at 2:00 PM today is valid until 2:00 PM tomorrow.
