Excellent tour with explanations via the audio guide. There are several languages available. We walked around the cathedral at our own pace learning about the history and many events which have taken place here. Well worth the visit!

    Lisa_K, Oct 2025
    Self guided tour was thorough and allowed touring the cathedral at one's own pace. Recommend going first thing when it opens before the tour busses arrive to allow for less crowded experience.

    St. Patrick’s Cathedral

    Francis_M, Aug 2025
    Great tour. I would recommend doing the audio guided tour. Beautiful cathedral. A lot of rich history. I had always thought St. Patrick’s was a catholic cathedral, it’s not but was at one point and is now a Protestant cathedral.

    What a beautiful...

    Michele_J, Jul 2025
    What a beautiful cathedral. Battle colours from centuries past. Amazing stain glass windows. Friendly team members. Well worth the time and effort to spend an hour or two at St Patrick’s in Dublin.

    Patty is Terrific!

    Karen_C, Jul 2025
    Patty was great! Much prefer human commentary over the audio recording. The tour was super interesting and informative, and Patty was funny and humble.. Would definitely recommend.

    Solo Visit

    Tabitha_W, Jul 2025
    Beautiful! Friendly staff and cute gift shop. If you can, download the tour ahead of time cause I internet is slow during high tourism.

    Just Gorgeous

    Diana_C, Jul 2025
    This cathedral was absolutely stunning! We did a self-guided tour and it was fine. I think that a guided tour would've been better just to learn even more. We really enjoyed our time visiting.

    Good Tour

    David_F, Jul 2025
    This tour has a guided hand held audio device through 18 stations. If a service is underway, then some areas will be off limits. Gift shop and rest rooms are there.

    Crowded, Very Beautiful and Interesting

    Stephanie_W, Jul 2025
    I'm glad we did this. It was quite crowded, but we were still able to see everything and move around. Very beautiful stained glass, and building. Don't skip the audio devices, there's interesting information that you wouldn't otherwise get, it's available in several languages.

    Audio guide was included....

    St. Patrick’s Church is a peaceful place to visit with beautiful architecture and intricate details. A lovely spot for quiet reflection and to admire historic craftsmanship. Definitely worth a stop if you’re into churches and design.

    Amazing history here, esp re: St. Patrick and Dean Jonathan Swift! Try to take (free) guided tour. Laura was very knowledgeable.

    MaryJoy_Y, May 2025
    This is a beautiful cathedral! We had a volunteer, I think her name was Maria that was amazing! She gave us a very good account of the goings on and added some wisdom and humor as well!

    So much to see here.

    Sally_J, May 2025
    This is a self guided tour but there are lots of ways to hear audio about this amazing place. I would recommend spending 2+ hours to soak it all in.

    Ok but would recommend a guided one

    Denisha_W, Apr 2025
    Get a guide to go with! Or book one with the guide. It’s a large church and we wanted to know so much that would have been great to get a guide. Also be sure to check the calendar to see if other events are going on. We only had 20 minutes to look around.

    St. Patrick’s Cathedral Tour

    Jennifer_T, Apr 2025
    St Patrick’s is full of history. I didn’t realize how much it was not only a place of worship but also a time capsule of a rich history.
