Things to do in Dublin

All articles

  • Dublin is generally safe to visit. The city has a relatively low crime rate, with most issues being petty crimes like pickpocketing in crowded areas. Tourist spots such as Temple Bar, Grafton Street, and major attractions are well-patrolled and safe. However, it's wise to stay alert in busy areas and keep an eye on your belongings.

    Public transport, including buses and trams, is generally safe, but be cautious of your personal items and avoid traveling alone late at night if possible. Some neighborhoods may be less safe after dark, so it’s a good idea to stay informed about the areas you plan to visit and follow local advice.
