In Easter 1916, a small band of armed revolutionaries took over the General Post Office on O'Connell Street and declared Ireland a republic. This two- hour walking tour takes in the relevant sites of the violent rebellion to give participants an insight into this historic occasion which precipitated the formation of the Irish state. The tour ends with a pint and a chat in the cozy International Bar on Wicklow Street.
