Time well spent.

An excellent experience. Our guide, Emma, was terrific and really made the visit more enjoyable. She spoke, she sang and she orated. There is so much to see. Every wall and every room holds interest.

Engaging, fun, best way to start a Dublin trip!

This is such a neat place! It truly is the LITTLE museum, as the tour takes place in just two large rooms. The walls and cases are filled with important and often lesser known artifacts. Upon arrival, we were greeted by Fionn, who himself was quite well informed. Our guide was Lisa, who was funny, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable. The final room contains a phone directory from several generations back, where I was able to locate some of my relatives' names! She ended the tour with a lovely folk song; she had the most mesmerizing voice and was thrilled to answer questions upon departure. This was the first stop for my study abroad cohort and it was a great way to kick off our trip!

Fun time!

We had a great time. Emma was a funny and engaging guide and this was a nice way to get history about the city. The U2 exhibit was an added bonus.

Highly recommend

Quirky and fun museum, the guided tour is what makes it even more special. Mark was fantastic as our guide and we had a great time! Right next to St Stephen’s for a nice park visit too, would highly recommend if you enjoy museums, history, or simply good stories and a bit of fun
