fiogf49gjkf0d Buses from out of town, the airport included, will drop you at or close by the
Central Bus Station
, or Busaras (tel 836 6111), in Store Street, behind the Custom House. Right by the river, this is dead central for almost anywhere in the city and is one of the few places you can leave luggage during the day (?2-3/€2.54-3.81). The city is served by two main
train stations
: Connolly and Heuston (tel 836 6222). The former is on Amiens Street, behind the bus depot, while Heuston Station is in the west of the city just south of the river from Phoenix Park.
Coming in from the
airport
, six miles north of the centre, you can take the official airport bus for ?3.50/€4.44 or a scheduled city bus (#41A or #41C) will do the same job for ?1.15/€1.46. Either takes around half an hour to reach the bus station. Alternatively, a taxi will cost you not more than ?12/€15.24. If you arrive by
ferry
, you'll come in at one of two harbours: Dun Laoghaire (pronounced
Learey
; for Stena Line services), six miles south, is on the efficient DART (Dublin Area Rapid Transport) city train network, which will whisk you into town in about twenty minutes; Dublin Port (Irish Ferries/B&I), one mile east of the centre itself, is served by local buses #53 and #53A, though it is common for coaches from the UK to continue to Busaras in Store Street.
