Traveler reviews
Book Of Kells is a must see
Fresh off of landing from the states, we scheduled a tour to see the Book of Kells at Trinity College. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect with this tour, but my wife really wanted to do it and it had great reviews. We were lucky enough to have a tour guide named Niall for this one. He came with incredible knowledge and stories along the way. He was also very personable and took the time to get to know each one of his customers. You could tell he really cares and loves what he does. Couldn’t have asked for a better guide along the way. He made the experience 100x better. I would recommend this tour to anyone that loves and appreciates history. Such a cool experience to start our trip.
Do it!

Excellent
It was great. And our guide, Sean, was enthusiastic, informative, knowledgeable and entertaining. I learn a fair amount about Dublin and the sites which we saw. I highly recommend the tour. And if you are lucky enough to get Sean as your guide, he makes the tour well worth taking.
