Hi Donna , All the national museums are free . The little museum of Ireland is €14 for a family entry and well worth a look . The bus is €6 each from the airport . You can get a leap card which lets you on all public transport . We like to eat at Milano's for a treat and all the restaurants have good early bird deals . Grafton street and Dundrum for shopping if the girls want to spend their own money! Hope you have a good trip .
