A must-see for anyone whose ancestors emigrated. - This, to us, was a highlight of our stay in Dublin. My husband’s grandfather emigrated from Athlone, and we learned so much from our visit here. We enjoyed it very much. If you go, allow at least a couple of hours for the visit.

Great immersive visual museum - This is a superb museum with really interactive stations including an excellent passport to get involved at each room. The displays were fantastic with great visuals and videos. Luckily we had time to visit on our last day!

Great Dracula Experience - We did the Dracula experience with kids (4 & 7). The actor was great and the kids really really enjoyed it! We do a lot and this just proved you don’t need big fancy trips/adventures… they want to go back!

Perfect way to spend a morning - We learned so much about thing we had only heard of at EPIC. We arrived early and had the museum basically to ourselves for the first hour. Fascinating history of the reasons and places Irish people left their homeland. I liked also learning about sports, entertainment and politics. Very interesting personal stories were shared in various ways, I would love to come back!

Everyone should see - It was very interactive, can be overwhelming with the large topic the museum attempts to cover. I do like the layout & the passport stamps

Enriching Experience - we didnt have a complete plan on what to do in dublin, but l always make my list through trip advisor & so glad I did. We did this on a day where we didn't have much going on. I Am so glad we did this, so much history in this museum. Learned so much about Ireland in this museum. I bought some suvoneirs after the tour. You can definitely do it at your own pace or to the guided tour. I really enjoyed it. A must see for its rich history.

A Great Overview of Why People Leave Ireland - The museum is very well done. It entertains and informs. It has a section baout the impact of the Irish on the world. 70 million people have Irish heritage; only 7 million people live in Ireland. My takeaway - people are always leaving Ireland.

Spend a great few hours here - Very well organised exhibition. Perhaps almost too much information for one visit, especially if you have little knowledge of the subject.
