Cruisepm Posted February 5, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 5, 2018 We will be spending some time in Dublin before our cruise. I would like to visit Malahide Castle on our own. Is it better to take the train or the bus? Thank you for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob++ Posted February 7, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 7, 2018 In the absence of any more knowledgeable replies, I see that their own website says this: Want to do your own thing and take public transport, here are some options…Bus Routes- Dublin buses operate to and from Malahide- bus route number 42 or bus route 32 from Dublin City Centre- journey time approx. 40 minutes Trains (DART): Irish Rail operates a train and D.A.R.T. service to and from Malahide: The journey time is approximately 30 minutes. For schedules visit: http://www.irishrail.ie/ As to which is better, I couldn't say. In my experience, buses usually offer more interesting views, while the train goes through cuttings and past people's back gardens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On this route, I've read that the DART runs along the coast and offers some very nice views. I'd suggest that you pose this question to the helpful locals on the Dublin forum on trip advisor. In fact, if you do a quick search, I'm sure the question has already been asked and answered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
