Trinity College and the Book of Kells

Your tour also includes access to the Long Room. Housing more than a quarter of a million of the college’s oldest books, it’s one of the most beautiful libraries on the planet.

Explore Dublin's museums

For a taste of what life was like for prisoners in Dublin in the 19th century, take a tour of Kilmainham Gaol. Along with ordinary members of the public, the leaders of the Irish rebellions were imprisoned and, in some cases, executed here.

A tour guide will provide a unique insight into conditions inside the prison. Just be sure to book tickets in advance to avoid disappointment as the jail is one of Dublin’s most popular attractions.
