Dublin on a budget

Dublin is a relatively small city, but what it lacks in size it more than makes up for in culture as one of Europe's most vibrant cities and friendly as voted by travel magazine Conde Nast Traveler. But what is so brilliant about this charming city is that you can experience all of what Dublin has to offer on a shoestring budget. And here's how...

Dublin Transportation
Dublin airport has steadily become one of the most accessible airports in the world. Facilitating over 25 million passengers a year from over 40 countries, it is easy to find affordable flights in and out of the city. Just check Sky Scanner for the best list of available flights.

Dublin is known as one of the most walkable large cities in the world, and walking is an excellent way to get to know your surroundings. However, there are multiple transport services that will bring you where you need to go, including UCD, the venue for ISAG 2017. These include Dublin Bus, The Luas, The Dart and even the hugely popular Dublin Bike Rental scheme.

Dublin Activities
Take a stroll through St. Stephen's Green, a leafy city centre park surrounded by attractions, shops, and Georgian buildings. If you have a taste for the finer things, don't miss our two top art galleries, the National Gallery of Ireland and the Irish Museum of Modern Art, neither of which will cost you a cent.

Don't forget to visit Trinity College, and see for yourself the iconic Book of Kells stored in the halls of Trinity Library.

Dining
