Quick and Informative! - This was a perfect tour to slot into a busy day of site seeing. We did the campus tour only, and it was a nice 45 minutes and super lovely. Niamh was our guide and she was knowledgeable and lovely and gave us great recommendations

A Must for Any History Appreciator - We had a fantastic experience on this guided walking tour of Trinity College. Our guide was Niamh; she did a wonderful job of distilling centuries of history into a 45-minute experience. Her insight into the history of campus structures like the Graduate Memorial Building and the Museum Building was a major highlight of the trip for us. An excellent addition to the the Long Room and Book of Kells Experience.

Great guided tour - This tour was so enjoyable. Our guide was Benjamin, a history/language student at Trinity. He was just great. Informative, knowledgable, funny, entertaining, friendly, and his love of the university was very infectious. Excellent tour of the campus. We toured the Book of Kells which was very good too. Would strongly recommend this guided tour, especially if you’re lucky enough to have Benjamin as your guide.
