Cần Quan Tâm
Hill of Tara
The Hill of Tara, located in County Meath, is an ancient ceremonial and burial site steeped in myth and history. Once the seat of the High Kings of Ireland, it served as a political and spiritual centre for centuries. The hill features archaeological remains such as the Lia Fáil (Stone of Destiny), believed to roar when touched by a true king. Other monuments include burial mounds and ring forts dating back to the Neolithic period. Tara holds deep cultural significance, symbolizing Irish sovereignty and identity, and continues to draw visitors interested in its rich heritage and mystical past. Note: travel time from your hotel is included in the time spent on this attraction.
Bective Abbey
Located near the River Boyne in County Meath, this is a striking example of medieval monastic architecture. Founded in 1147 by the Cistercian order, it was the second Cistercian abbey established in Ireland. The site features a combination of Romanesque and Gothic styles, with well-preserved cloisters, stone carvings, and fortified walls. Once a powerful religious and economic centre, Bective Abbey was dissolved during the 16th-century Dissolution of the Monasteries. Today, its atmospheric ruins offer a glimpse into monastic life and Irish history. The abbey’s haunting beauty also made it a filming location for the movie Braveheart.

5.00My siblings and I had a wonderful time on our half-day tour with Owen! He was friendly and very knowledgeable, teaching us all about Irish history alongside facts about the Hill of Tara, Bective Abbey, and Trim Castle. The car was clean and comfortable and we enjoyed the beautiful ride through the Irish countryside. We were able to grab lunch from a charming coffee shop in Trim and get some excellent recommendations for our time in Dublin. What’s more, Owen went above and beyond to return valuable items we accidentally left in the car at the end of the tour! We greatly appreciate the five-star experience and service. Definitely book this tour!
