Ireland isn’t known as being the sunniest of countries, but a rainy day in Dublin can put a damper on your travel plans! But rainy days don’t have to stop the fun since there are plenty of fun indoor things to do on a rainy day in Dublin!

Cold and damp outside, but dry inside Guinness Storehouse

Rainy Day in Dublin: A Guinness Storehouse Tour

Odds are good that the Guinness Storehouse is already on your “must-visit” list for Dublin and with good reason! Between the tour, the tasting, and the killer views from the Gravity Bar, it’s one of Dublin’s most popular attractions. Beyond the standard tour, there are fun options like Guinness Academy where you can learn how to pour a proper pint, and the Connoisseur Experience where you can dive deeper into Guinness history and enjoy a more in depth tasting. Enjoy even more of this famous drink while you hang out at the Gravity Bar and enjoy the scenic views of Dublin. If you’re a Guinness fan, the Storehouse is a not-to-be-missed stop, whether it’s raining or not. If, like me, Guinness isn’t your beer of choice, Guinness Storehouse is still a fantastic experience and I’m so glad that I did it when I was in Dublin!
