About This Tour

A private tour combining skip-the-line access to the Book of Kells with Dublin's Old Town, available across several duration tiers. Choose from 2, 3, 4, or 5-hour versions, all combining skip-the-line entry to Trinity College's Old Library and Book of Kells with a private walk through Dublin's Old Town, with an optional Christ Church Cathedral stop.

Christ Church Cathedral has one of the longest continuous histories of any building in Dublin: a wooden church first raised here around 1030 under the Viking king Sitric Silkenbeard, rebuilt as stone in 1172 largely under the Anglo-Norman noble Strongbow, and then rebuilt again almost entirely during a major restoration in the 1870s - meaning most of what visitors actually see today is Victorian, even though the site's history runs back nearly a thousand years earlier.

That's the optional add-on stop on this private tour, whose core is skip-the-line entry to Trinity College's Old Library and its Book of Kells - a real time-saver given it's Ireland's single most in-demand attraction, and one worth booking around current access: the Old Library and Long Room are set to remain open to visitors through the end of 2027, with longer-term plans to relocate the manuscript to the restored Printing House building after that.

Available across four duration tiers from 2 to 5 hours, the tour combines that Old Library access with a private walk through Dublin's Old Town - confirm your chosen tier's exact ticket inclusions when you book.
