THESE VACATIONS ARE TOTALLY LIT

Knowing that so many REAL SIMPLE readers (heyyy!) love to read as much as they love to explore, we decided to combine the two pastimes and create some page-turning book-themed itineraries. See the real-life settings that inspired your favorite tales, learn about the lives of the authors who spun iconic narratives, and write some new chapters of your own. If you’re a bibliophile with a travel bug, do what you do best: Read on, and get packing!

Get thee to the Emerald Isle’s capital! Once there, head directly to the Museum of Literature, which spotlights the country’s many contributions to the Western canon. Exhibits are revolving, but a few mainstays include artifacts from Oscar Wilde and James Joyce. In fact, you can gawk at the first-ever copy of Ulysses. Next up, hit the James Joyce Centre, a museum that offers walking tours to see the city through the artist’s eyes. Finally, if you’re interested in checking out any of the local watering holes, we suggest the Dublin Literary Pub Crawl, making stops at four historic bars. Cheers!
