The Smuggler's Discount

A tradition unique to Homeland Heritage: The Homecoming Edition

Consider this a bit of a Week Zero warm-up before kickoff.

Our Founder is an American who moved to Europe over a decade ago, which means there's a list of things she craves from home that Ireland has simply refused to provide. You're flying over anyway. Your suitcase has space. You see where this is going...

Each smuggler ticket comes with one item from The List, and gets you €5 off your ticket with the code SMUGGLER5. Bringing something from home is the heritage-tour equivalent of a game-winning drive.

Each tour has just five smuggler tickets, so it's first come, first served. No overtime, no second chances. It's a small, slightly ridiculous transatlantic arrangement between us and our US guests. You carry a little contraband across the water, the way half of Irish history was conducted, and we give you a discount and our sincere gratitude.

Everything on The List is shelf-stable, customs-friendly, and deeply, genuinely wanted. 

The game plan

Book your tour below, enter the code SMUGGLER5 for your discount, and drop us an email on info@dublinheritagetours.com with what you're bringing so we know what to expect. Then show up with the goods. A fair trade, Dublin's stories for America's finest shelf-stable goods, and honestly both sides win.

Fine print: One item should be brought for each smuggler ticket. Five smuggler tickets per tour. This discount can't be combined with any other offer.

THE LIST
We asked our Founder to include a brief statement on why this item is so vital.

  • Triscuits Original
    Courtney says: Quite simply no cracker comes close. The last time my Aunt brought these over for me I ate the entire box in two days. 

  • Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
    Courtney says: No explanation needed, IYKYK. 

  • Lawry's Seasoned Salt
    Courtney says: No potato is complete without it, and in Ireland we have a lot of potatoes. 

  • Pepperidge Farm Milano: Mint Chocolate
    Courtney says: It's the wrong time of the year to beg you to bring Girl Scout Cookies, so these are my runners up. 

  • Annie's Shells & White Cheddar
    Courtney says: My lunch of choice when I was a toddler and I still request this sometimes at home. Will make sure they are hidden from my Italian husband. 

  • Famous Dave's Corn Bread Mix
    Courtney says: I always like to have some corn bread mix around for Thanksgiving or the occasional chili dinner, this one is my favourite!

  • Lipton French Onion Soup & Dip Mix 
    Courtney says: Sometimes a girl just needs a bit of french onion dip.
