Students will also have a few days off from the program to travel independently in Ireland should they choose.
Highlights:
· Walking tours including historical sites and neighborhoods and landmarks featured in Ulysses.
· Admission and tours of the Martello Tower, James Joyce Center, and the National Library among others.
· Bloomsday, an annual city-wide festival in Dublin celebrating the work of James Joyce (June 16).
