- We had a wonderful tour of this historic, beautiful campus. Our guide, Liam, is a student at the University. He was knowledgeable, personable and passionate about the campus and its history. We continued the self guided portion of the tour to see the outstanding Book of Kells displays and the beautiful Trinity Library. I’d highly recommend this tour!

A delightful way to see Trinity College Dublin for the first time! - We had a lovely tour this afternoon (July 17, 2025) with Alice. She was lively, engaged, and full of great information, answered questions thoroughly and with good humor. We came away feeling that we were so very glad we had decided to take a tour rather than wander around on our own. We learned so much and felt the spirit of the College from a current long-term student, who tells us she is the sixth generation in her family to have attended the college. Such a great experience!

Trinity trail is an added plus. - Chris was an excellent guide and very informative. We found this portion of the tour quite interesting. This is an add-on to the Book of Kells experience.

A real bonus ! - Really worth to try it ! The tour was given by a Trinity student, with a good balance of historic facts and student life experience. Doing the guided tour enables you to enter some of the Trinity buildings, and provides you with a direct access to the Book of Kells & the Library. Worth the money as well (16 euros for one hour, plus half an hour at least for the Book of Kells exhibition & Library).

Great tour and intro to Trinity and Dublin. - Great tour by student guide James. Lot of rich history about the founding of the college, architectural marvels, provosts, even an on campus murder. Interspersed with humour, it was a well rounded 2 hours intro to the college and Dublin too.
