Any recommendations on a HOHO bus company that has a night tour available? We use the day part to get an overview of the city and then see Dublin at night. Hoping this helps with jet lag our first day there.

On our first night, we went with the City by Night tour. It was around 8:00, even though it didn't get dark until closer to 10, and lasted an hour. Our guide was funny and informative and we were provided with a complimentary shot of Jameson. It was one of our favorite experiences in Dublin.

Thanks for the reply. Looks like they are booked up on the beginning of our trip. Will try to get seats when we end the RS tour in Dublin the next weekend.

Not sure if it's the same company or not, but I've heard really good things about this one's night tours.

Also, on our last night in Dublin, we went to the Irish House Party. It was a wonderful dinner and desert with a show afterwards consisting of music and Irish step-dancing. It would be ideal for a jet-lagged first day or a way to close your trip.

I'm going to second City Sightseeing Dublin.
They offer a Hop Hop Hop Off Tour, a night tour, and combination ticket that will include the Air Coach from the Airport into Dublin. When you come out of the terminal at the airport, you will see them.
I did the Hop on Hop Off Bus but not the night tour. I also used Airlink to go between the airport and the city because my hotels were closer to Airlink stops than AirCoach.
