Awesome guided tour of Book of Kells, Trinity College and Dublin Castle area
Excellent tour of Book of Kells, Trinity College and its famous library, city walking tour and Dublin Castle.
Guide, Maura, was terrific—so knowledgeable and engaging and fun! It’s a lot of walking so people with mobility problems might have some difficulty. Overall a very fun tour!

Interesting tour
Had a great tour with Miriam, she was full of enthusiasm about the Book of Kells and Dublin more generally. A good way to see some of the interesting sights.

Our tour guide was...
Our tour guide was exellcent, very knowledgable and passionate. However, things I wish I knew before the tour:
- No tour guide allowed inside Book of Kells experience and the Dublin Castle. Our guide had to do all the talking before the entrance (which is outdoors and could feel very cold after standing still for >10 min)
- St Patrick's Cathedral has organized tour for public for free. You don't necessarily need a tour guide. Same with Book of Kells, there's audio tours available.

Informative and light hearted humour !
It was a very informative tour with Raager, (Roger) mixed with humour along the walk, not sure I have 47 yrs in me to read the full book of Kells!

Dermot was an amazing guide. He was attentive making sure all my questions were answered as well as ensuring I got the most from the experience. He was also super knowledgeable about the city as a whole. He pointed out all the must see monuments and the best restaurants.

A hidden gem
Edward our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. This tour is a hidden gem. We understand the history of this city so much better now. The Dublin castle and St Patrick Cathedral are amazing. I took this tour with my toddler and Edward was so patient with the both of us. He was engaging with my son which made this tour so worth it. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

Declan's Dublin!
Three hour tour of the Book of Kells, Trinity College library and Dublin Castle led by local "Dub," Declan - who was cheerful, knowledgeable, and gracious. An amazing time!

We have lived in Ireland for three years and have brought many friends to this tour. Malene was far the best! Very friendly. Very knowledgeable.

Great tour and guide!
Fergus was a great tour guide! He’s very knowledgeable, and knew a lot of the employees at locations where we went, so they could add information to the tour. He went above and beyond, and even helped us get to where we were going after the tour ended. Highly recommend!

Don't hesitate, book this tour!
This tour was great! Our guide, Richard, was very knowledgable of the sites we saw and so much more. Our favorite part was learning about the Book of Kells and The Library (amazing!). He was very accommodating and even provided recommendations on where to shop and eat. I wish we booked this tour earlier in our visit to Dublin so we could try all the places he suggested. We would highly recommend this tour!

Plan to spend about two hours at the castle learning about Irish history and exploring the highlights.
City Hall and Trinity College are about a five-minute walk from Dublin Castle and both are well worth a visit.
Wheelchair users can access most of Dublin Castle. However, the Viking Excavation and parts of the Chapel Royal are inaccessible.
