A Day At The Races & the Horse Lovers Tour
Your Guide Cairín O'Connor has a good insight into Horseracing and the Horse industry in Ireland. She and her team of Guides are Horselovers. They will take you to the Irish National Stud in the morning. There will be a guided tour and time to explore on your own. As the Races are held in various locations the venue for lunch may be a local pub en route to the race track or it may be at the racetrack. You will get to meet a local Jockey and your guide will explain how to study the form and place a bet. There is ample time to socialize at the Racetrack and you can stop for a drink on the way back to Dublin. Irish people love their horses. This tour ensures you are among them for a day.
