Dublin – Getting Around

Dublin – Getting Around Dublin City is easy to get around on foot but if you're looking to pack a lot into a short trip or you fancy venturing a little further a field then we have the comprehensive list of public transport in the capital. The Dart Dublin Area Rapid Transit is Dublin’s coastal commuter rail service. It skirts across the south bay from Greystones in county Wicklow, through the leafy suburbs of South County Dublin, over the Liffey, across the city and straight through to the North of Dublin Bay, to beautiful villages such as Malahide, Sutton and Howth. For more information and tickets, visit Irish Rail Website. Ticket Price 3 Day Rail Only €25.50 Weekly Rail Only €43.60 7 Day Rail & Luas €46.50 To learn more about trips that you can take on the dart check out our blog post: 3 Short-trips to take from Dublin City Dart provides access to: Ø Howth Ø Dun Laoghaire Ø Malahide Ø Dalkey Ø Dublin City – Merrion Sq/Customs House Ø Bray Ø Blackrock Ø Greystones The LUAS Dublin’s light urban rail system is a relatively new transport system serving the city centre and south county Dublin. It’s a modern and highly reliable service, which gets you from the outskirts right to the city centre in under an hour. There are two lines, a green and a red, which are not linked as of yet, but this project is under way. For more information and tickets visit LUAS website. There is no weekend ticket for the LUAS but you can get a leap card and top it up with €20 which should keep you going for three days. You can buy the cards in most newsagents, top them up online or at any LUAS station. LUAS provides access to: Ø Tallaght Ø St. Stephen’s Green Ø Heuston station Ø Ranelagh Ø Smithfield Ø Dundrum Ø Jervis Stree – North City Centre Ø Sandyford Dublin Bikes Introduced to the capital just a few years ago, this initiative has been a huge success. Almost 55,000 people take 1.2million journeys fro over 100 stations, dotted around the city from Heuston Station in the west, to Dublin Port in the east, and everything between the two canals. If you want to get around the city centre in a hurry, Dublin City Bikes are the best option for you. If you only want to use Coca-Cola Zero Dublin bikes now and again, or you are a visitor to Dublin, choose a 3 Day Ticket. These tickets are convenient, great value for money and can be purchased from any of the credit card terminals for just €5. The first half-hour of use is free. Fore more information on 3 day Dublin Bikes Pass. Dublin Bus The comprehensive way to get around Dublin, the bus service serves every town and village within the county limits. Though some villages are not served at quite the same frequencies as others, if you plan ahead you should get to where you want to go. Traffic is a little unpredictable in Dublin and so are our buses but for the range of service, you can’t beat Dublin Bus. Prices range from €1.50 to €3.60, with the cheapest fares available with the leap card. Also check out Dublin Bus if you are looking to travel to any events in neighbouring counties such as Meath, Wicklow, Laois, Kildare or Louth. .
