Fortsätt på denna fascinerande guidade tur till Dublin Castle.

Maura was fantastic! Great tour! The only downside was the castle being closed off. Otherwise excellent!
Comprehensive tour of St. Patrick cathedral, amazing Book of Kells experience. Andrew was a great guide. We enjoyed every minute.
EXCELLENT! Our guide Fergus was absolutely amazing, knowledgeable, helpful and efficient! If we could give him 10-Stars instead of a perfect 5-Stars, we would! And this includes my hubby’s & daughter’s input along with mine! We highly recommend this tour, & Fergus of course! Thank you.
Our guide was very knowledgeable with the history and told great stories. However, seemed very unorganized. The maps and historical pictures she showed were old and tattered in baggies. Your guides should be using updated materials that are laminated.
Would definitely recommend the tour. Your are given so much history and you really get to see a lot of the city. Fair warning it’s a lot of walking and expect to get rained on during the excursion. We walked almost 8 miles by the time we were done at the Guinness warehouse so come prepared.
This experience stated that it included Dublin Castle grounds but Viator knew that the grounds were closed due to a political event and did not advertise this. The customer service refused to partial refund charges even though the advertised information was not accurate. Richard was awesome at Trinity College, but I could walk and see all the castle details outside the gates by myself without paying the extra money. Too expensive for what was provided. I would suggest booking tours through another company that is honors what is advertised and charged.
Leanne, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed Richard's guidance and recognised the knowledge and enthusiasm he brought to your experience. We are, however, sorry to learn that you were disappointed by the Dublin Castle portion of the tour. On the day of your visit, access to the Dublin Castle grounds was unfortunately not permitted due to official Government business taking place at the Castle. These closures are determined by the Irish Government and Dublin Castle authorities and are outside the control of LetzGo City Tours. While we understand this was disappointing, it was an exceptional operational circumstance rather than a permanent change to the experience. Rather than simply skipping this important location, Richard brought the group to the historic Dublin Castle District and delivered the full historical narrative surrounding the site. Guests learned about the Castle's role as the seat of English administration and governance in Ireland for more than 800 years, the transfer of power following Irish independence, and the significance of the surrounding landmarks, including views of the Castle exterior, the unique Lady Justice statue, and the historic precincts that continue to tell the story of this remarkable location. Your tour also included a fully guided visit to St Patrick's Cathedral, reserved admission to the Book of Kells Experience, entry to the magnificent Long Room at Trinity College, a guided walk through the historic Trinity College campus, the Molly Malone Statue, and expert storytelling that brings over a thousand years of Dublin's history to life. We appreciate your comments regarding communication. Whenever we receive confirmed information about temporary closures from the venue, we always endeavour to communicate this to guests as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, Government operational requirements can sometimes change at short notice, making advance notification difficult. We are sorry that the temporary closure affected your enjoyment of the experience, but we hope the depth of Richard's guiding and the many other highlights included in the tour still provided you with a memorable introduction to Dublin's rich history. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you safe and enjoyable travels.
