Dublin · TICKETS
The good ones go weeks ahead, and the very good ones go before that. Below: the 15 to book early, what each includes, and where they differ once you read the small print.
Guinness Storehouse entry in Dublin, self-guided 7-story tour at St James's Gate, plus a complimentary pint and 360-degree views.
“We enjoyed our experience, the museum portion was very well done and interesting. The taste testing and gravity bar were the highlights. Highly recommend if you are in Dublin and have any interest.”
Prebook EPIC in Dublin’s CHQ building for self-guided Irish emigration galleries, passport stamps, and a free nine-language audio guide.
“Excellent exhibit, very interactive and extremely informative. It makes points that one would not feel are intuitive to general knowledge. Definitely recommended.”
Fast-track access to the Book of Kells at Trinity, guided by experts, plus Dublin Castle gardens in one 2.5-hour tour.
“Richard was a fantastic guide for the Book of Kells and Dublin Castle walk. He was full of fun facts, extremely knowledgeable, and made the tour engaging and enjoyable. He also gave us great recommendations for things to do and places to eat. Highly recommend!”
Get free entry to 40+ Dublin attractions for 1 to 5 days with a QR code pass from Go City, including Guinness, EPIC, and a bus tour.
“I always recommend a city pass. It really gives you access to most things and almost everything was walkable that I did. Sometimes I wish city pass offered more night options but I saw maybe 5 attractions and my total would have been way more had I done everything separate. I recommend buying early as the food and bar tour were booked out more then a week so I missed out”
See Titanic Belfast, UNESCO Giant’s Causeway, Dark Hedges, and Dunluce Castle on a guided day trip from Dublin, with time in Belfast.
“Our tour guide Quiggs was very informative and also interspersed hos chat with Irish music. This made the day even though the weather was awful.”
EPIC Dublin’s interactive Irish emigration museum. Touch screens, audio app, souvenir passport, and a free 10-day return. Tickets from $24.
“This was a great self-guided interactive tour that was well worth the fee! I downloaded the free audio tour guide app, which was helpful to provide a summary for each room/section of the museum. I spent more time than I planned and could have eaily stayed longer. Do make this part of your Dublin Itinerary!! The only constructive feedback would be that there was no information posted for Shane MacGowan and his contributions to Irish music globally.”
Explore Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin with a self-guided nave and crypt ticket, plus audio guide and the legend of Tom and Jerry.
“It was quite interesting and something to do on a rainy day.”
Smithwick's Experience Kilkenny entrance ticket, interactive history of Irish brewing, and a pint of Smithwick beer included.
“Ruby was a great tour guide, really knew her stuff and was very personable. The pints after were also top quality.”
Saint Patrick's Cathedral Dublin entry ticket with a mobile pass and audio stations. See Gothic interiors and Jonathan Swift fast.

“Informative,extremely interesting,well set out ,the scary area was very scary”
Visit Christ Church Cathedral in Dublin at your pace, including the neo-Gothic nave, medieval crypt, Magna Carta copy, and odd mummified tales.
“i visited before but disnt visit he crypt due to time constraints. Visited the crypt this time. Would highly recommend it.”
Fast-track Guinness Storehouse plus a 24 or 48-hour Dublin hop-on hop-off bus with live commentary and a free Gravity Bar pint.
“The viator app is not reliable. We could not retrieve our tickets through the app. The bus driver was very friendly and helpful to help us get a hard copy of our tickets, however, he messed up our Guinness Storehouse tickets. Luckily, the woman at Guinness gave us a break and fixed the issue. The Tour Busses were fine, but I think you really need to be super prepared before using this Jump ON/OFF Tour.”
Dublin World of Illusion ticket: three floors of interactive optical tricks and photo ops. Wheelchair friendly, 1 to 2 hours, mobile ticket.
“Brought my grandchildren today and we all had great fun great family place well worth a visit such a great fun place to visit”
Pre-book your National Wax Museum Plus ticket in Dublin for a self-guided hour of Irish history, science, pop culture, and photo ops.
“Many of the wax figures were downright creepy. We were somewhat disappointed in this museum after going to multiple Madame Tussaud’s locations. This is a cheap imitation. There is are some sections that are interesting and creative. Keep your expectations low and you won’t be disappointed. However some is too scary for small children.”
Pre-book a guaranteed seat for a Dublin Irish night show with a 4-course dinner, live music, and world-class Irish dancing at Taylors Three Rock.
“The food was delicious and the show was fun and lively. The show was engaging and involved everyone in very fun ways.”
Pick a day: in the city, along the coast, or out on the road.
