Dublin's Guinness Storehouse and Temple Bar - Worth the Hype?
Today's Day 2 in Dublin, Ireland as we tour Ireland over 10 days aboard the Norwegian Star cruise ship. We tender into Dun Laoghaire, then take the Dart train into Dublin city center. Some of the important sights along the way are O'Connell Bridge, River Liffey, Ha'penny Bridge, and Dublin Castle.

Cruise ship people, listen to them :)
@theliammurphy thank you for the comment and thank you for watching!
This is my first time seeing Dublin. Nice mix of old and modern.
@willcooper6980 we liked Dublin but it’s more of a big city compared to the other cities we were in. You’re right about the old and new. The Brazen head was soooo old!
Does the living room sofa pull out into a bed? Online it shows this room sleeps 3......
The hotel website states the room sleeps 2 adults or 2 adults and 1 child. The bedroom has a king bed. The couch did not appear to pull out which means the child would have to sleep on the couch itself. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching!! 😊
The country was lovely.
It certainly was! The Wicklow mountains were beautiful. Thanks for your support Michelle!
We luv these guys, such great informative vids 💙
Thanks you so much and always being so supportive!!
Was this called El Yunque Rainforest and Portal Experience? If so, was it challenging. I’m traveling with my parents and was trying to see if this is something they can do.
The excursion we booked is the El Yunque Rainforest Drive with Airport Transfer. There wasn’t much exertion involved. If you choose to climb the steps or the tower, it’s up to you. Thanks for your question and for watching!
@@TheWanderfullLife thank you for responding. Your channel is lovely.
Hi Tim. Can I ask what type of shampoo or body wash was? Is it lavender scent at all? I’m allergic so wanted to check.
@hollywest7413 it’s Deanna…. The soap and shampoo are a combination in the standard balcony and are not lavender scented. However, if you are in a suite or spa balcony the soap and shampoo is separate and scented which may have lavender in them. I usually being a small bottle of my own shampoo and conditioner because the one on the ship really isn’t that good. I do use the body wash and Tim typically brings bar soap to use. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching and let us know if you have any other questions.
Sorry your port got cancelled but it looks like you two made the most of it!
Thanks! We did make the best of it even though the activities were somewhat lacking for the day. You guys look like you’re traveling a lot. How did you like the Apex?
@@TheWanderfullLife We had a great time and really liked the ship. Still looking for the perfect cruise, however, but enjoying the research lol
We hear you! Us too! Have 2 others planned this year and 1 next so far.
@@TheWanderfullLife We’ll have to try to cross paths again! We’re booked on Utopia Aug. 12 and NCL Pearl in the Med Sep. 16.
We are Alaska in August and back to the Caribbean on HA in December. We definitely need to meet again!
If I ever get the chance to do this cruise, I would want to do a guided walking tour. The riverwalk is especially interesting.
Thanks Will! It was a great day seeing the city and exploring what Galway has to offer. We had to make a decision of staying in town or going to the coast and we are glad we did what we did. A walking tour would be great as there is so much history there. As always, thanks for your support and watching our videos!
Ireland is on my bucket list
Awesome! It’s so worth visiting.
fantastic👍
Totally Awesome
Did you take an Uber to the cruise port? How far away is the port? Cost of Uber from the hotel?

Those Northern Lights 😍
Pretty amazing!
I had a wonderful day in Belfast! I did the Titanic museum. 😁
The Titanic experience was definitely a highlight of Belfast but the overall history of the city is also amazing! Thanks for your support and watching our videos!
Amazing cruise! I was on it as well. I enjoyed every second of it!! 😁🛳️
Agree! We will have more videos for the rest of the cruise soon. Thanks for watching!
What an unexpected treat, seeing the Northern lights. I applaud your editing decision of no footage on day 2, just a brief verbal summary. The cruise vloggers would've cobbled something together, interesting or boring, and tacked it onto the day before or day after. Because the formula says that you have to show every day.
@willcooper6980 it was truly incredible seeing the Northern Lights from the ship that night. Extremely unexpected! Thanks for your comment on the editing. Sometimes it’s good to hear feedback on what works. We didn’t want to force it. As always, thanks for your support!
What an amazing day and night!
It truly was. Thanks for watching! 😊
Thank you for sharing this. I really wanted to go to the Titanic Museum, but we had pre-booked our excursions so now I feel like I’ve got to see both things - appreciate it.
Also, I didn’t even know those northern lights were happening. We were sound asleep. I wish they would’ve made an announcement. thank you for those pics!!!
@auntsa We were so torn with what to do in most of our ports. Our taxi driver really pushed for him to take us to the Causeway but we really wanted to explore the city this time. I’m sure we’ll be back to do other things! You’re welcome and so glad you enjoyed the video. Thank you for watching and your support of our channel!
Yes… they should have announced it on the ship. It was truly an amazing thing to see! Glad you are at least able to enjoy the video to see them! Again- we really appreciate the support and thank you so much!
@@TheWanderfullLife we did go to the Causeway. It was really cool. We have a video out there from our excursions. Well it’s more of a slideshow than a video :) Feel free to watch :)

I believe you did, sir! 😂 Thanks for all your support, Matt! Love you guys! ❤️
This is very helpful!
Thank you for supporting us and watching! It was very easy to do.
Hi Tim & Deanna. Been out of town for business, now catching up on vlogs. Oh my gosh. Thanks for acknowledging your homeboy. Wasn't expecting that. At least the first couple you met live there. Would've been too crazy if you met Americans first.
You’re very welcome! Good to hear you’re doing well and we truly appreciate your support! ❤️😊
Titanic ❤️
Stay tuned for our next video from Belfast where the Titanic was built! Thank you for watching! 😊
@@TheWanderfullLife The Titanic left on April 10, 1912, 114 years have passed 😭
😢😢
Thanks for the description of Southampton port. We were always curious to see what the area looked like! Great video!
Thank you Brenda! It’s a pretty easy port to navigate unlike other European ports we have been to. Thank you for your continued support! Where are you guys off to next?
We have a Western Caribbean cruise booked out of Galveston in February on the Prima, but we may change that due to Katy getting a new job! We want to see Michael and Vinnie again😊
Alot of extra cost items. Heard Aqua wont have a racetrack. Probably because people don't want to pay for it.
Yes, the Prima class ships have more extras than the others. You are right about no racetrack for the Aqua. Looks like they are doing a water slide coaster instead. It looks pretty cool. Hopefully there won’t be a charge. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing we will be traveling from Chicago to Cancun to Isla Mujeres soon. How much was the ferry? Great Video
The round trip ticket is $29 USD. Thanks for watching! You’re gonna love it there. Where are you staying?
Bonjour to our lovely Chicago friends, another great vid as usual 💙❤️
Thanks Matt! 🤗
Soho, London and Piccadilly Circus, are older than Soho, NYC and Times Square - so the mimicking is coming from the US??
Yep! Completely agree. I should have made that more clear. Thank you so much for watching!!
It doesn't rain as much as people think - So, good weather would not be unexpected. NYC has double the rainfall. Not sure where the myth comes from but I wonder if it is due to London winter 'gray' skies, and people presume that comes hand in hand with rain.
That’s really good to know. I think we had rain on the brain knowing we were also getting ready for Ireland after we left London. We were very fortunate to have exceptionally good weather for our entire trip! Thank you and we appreciate you watching!
where did you rent your golf cart?
Ciros golf cart rental- great experience and reasonable prices! Thanks for watching! facebook.com/share/wWRiAEPj6oEFdCnQ/?mibextid=LQQJ4d

So good to see our lovely American friends roaming around our Capital London, much luv to you both from myself and Kelley 💙❤️
We loved London and can’t wait to go back. Definitely need to see more of your wonderful capital! Thanks for the constant support. Love you both! ❤️🇬🇧
Was the bar the Tattershall? You had a great spot for the parade of guards.
The bar we visited was The Red Lion. Actually, the stuff at Green Park and Buckingham Palace was a celebration commemorating the one year anniversary of the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla. We just sort of stumbled into the whole thing. No planning, in our case. Thanks for watching!
One of our favourite cities! So fun to see it through your eyes! I love the explanations you included to give flavour to what you are seeing and the tips. I look forward to your next video. 😊
Thanks guys! Glad you enjoyed it. Watch for London this weekend.
Thank you for thr review. We will be getting the premium Plus drink package. Is the veuve and better champagne (moet, pommery) available at every restaurant and bar? Thank you
@nehadhanda592 Veuve is only available in Le Bistro. Pommery Rose is available in most bars and restaurants. You’re welcome and thank you for watching! Have a great cruise and don’t hesitate to reach out with any other questions.
Before I see the video, I want to respond to the question in your title: NO! 48 hours are NEVER enough. Since 1986, I have been to Paris twelve times, and never was there for under a full week. Once, I was there for a whole month. One of the benefits of the longer stay is to avail yourselves the use of the Carte Navigo, which gives you a tremendous discount on travel. That train from the airport is *NOT* the Metro; it's a different system, called the RER. When you buy your week Carte Navigo, that fare to and from the airport is included for free. Not pronounced "lay" Procope. Le Procope. The word pronounced "lay" is spelled "Les." Overall, your French pronunciation is not very good. As long as you were in Paris and planning to film this, you could have gotten some help from locals. The little island you referred to that you went to was Ile de la Cité, pronounced "eel duh lah see-TAY." That looked like a really nice hotel room. You did a fine job on the overview of the interior of Le Louvre. "Pain au chocolat to walk with...." People in Paris do *NOT* walk around with their food. They sit, savor, and enjoy it that way. WOW! You walked to Montmartre from Sainte-Chappelle! That's quite a trek! But, as you showed, there were some wonderful spots along the way. It's good that you thought your Uber from Basilique du Sacré-Cœur was cheap at 19 euros and took only 40 minutes. You could have taken the Metro line 4 for 2.15 euros each and been there in 28 minutes.
Thank you for your comment. We really appreciate your insight to the French culture and thanks for the correct pronunciation. We did mention numerous times how bad our French language even after Duolingo . Lol We probably should have had our daughter give us lessons as she can hold her own. Thank you for watching and we hope you enjoyed the video. :)
Tim you have the voice for narration. It was interesting and I learned things I never knew. I have lived here all my life. The school I worked at in East Lakeview went there every year for their School-wide end of year picnic. In all those years I never saw those views. Thanks for sharing. 🙂💕
There’s so much history in this neighborhood. Glad you enjoyed the video! Xo
I loved it! You did a fantastic job editing the video Tim. I can still read your face Deanna. It was fun touring Paris with you guys. Only way I am gonna see it now with this walker. Thank you so much for sharing! Looking forward to London. Safe travels, Love ya!🙂💕
Aww thanks, Fran! Glad you enjoyed Paris with us. We appreciate your support! 🤗
Great video - both informative and entertaining! Beautiful weather and beautiful city!
Hi! Thanks. We had an amazing trip and there’s lots more to come. As always, thanks for the support! We need to catch up soon. 😊
How much should I budget to spend on food and drinks for the day?
That really depends on how much you eat and drink but I’d say we spent about 150-200 per day on food and drinks for 2 people. We did eat at a couple of expensive restaurants which were $60-70 for the night a few times. There are definitely cheaper places. Lots of happy hours etc…. Breakfast cost about $30 and we didn’t typically have a big lunch. The nice thing about Ixchel is there are full kitchens in many of their rooms. You can definitely do some cooking on your own as well. Thank you for the question and for watching!
@@TheWanderfullLife Super helpful. Thank you. Did you feel the island is over crowded?
Should just leave them tbh
Yep!
@weebsarepathetic definitely annoying and agree the ship should not wait unless you are on a ship excursion.
@@TheWanderfullLife I wonder if that's the case here?
Booked this property the night before our Celebrity cruise in August. Very helpful video! 👏🏼😀
So glad our video helped you make the decision on where to stay before your cruise. What ship are you sailing? Thank you for watching and have an amazing time!
