Acerca de esta actividad
El Libro de Kells, situado dentro de las murallas del Trinity College de Dublín, fue escrito alrededor del 800 d.C. Esta hermosa y fascinante obra maestra es considerada el mejor ejemplo de la iluminación medieval durante más de 1 200 años. Se describe en los Anales de Ulster en el año 1 007 como «el objeto más preciado del mundo occidental», la importancia histórica y cultural del Libro de Kells no ha hecho más que aumentar con el tiempo. Su nombre procede de su hogar original en la abadía de Kells, el manuscrito se muestra ahora en la preciosa biblioteca del siglo XVI del Trinity College. Junto con nuestros guías expertos de 5 estrellas, podrá explorar la rica ornamentación del Libro de Kells, su simbolismo y significado de varias capas, y su maestría mundialmente famosa, así como sus numerosos secretos y misterios escondidos. Esta visita a primera hora ofrece a los visitantes de Dublín una magnífica oportunidad para disfrutar de la exposición sin el bullicio y ajetreo de las multitudes. En esta recorrido, su guía le garantizará una visita de cerca al Libro de Kells y la antigua biblioteca.

Continúe su recorrido hasta el castillo de Dublín, situado en el corazón del centro histórico de Dublín. El castillo fue originalmente construido en el siglo XIII en un sitio anteriormente colonizado por los vikingos que ha funcionado como fortaleza militar, tesorería, prisión, tribunales de justicia y sede de la Administración inglesa en Irlanda durante 700 años. En este recorrido por el exterior, tendrá la oportunidad de visitar el jardín, Upper y Lower State Yards, la Record Tower y las Octagonal Towers originales y otros puntos de interés. Su guía le revelará los secretos, como por qué se alza una Dama de la Justicia tan única y diferente sobre las murallas del castillo, además de otras historias de misterio e intriga, incluyendo la desaparición de las joyas de la corona irlandesa y el famoso conde que fue creado dentro de los muros del castillo.

También podrá ver la única estatua oficial de Molly Malone (el amuleto de Dublín), el centro comercial victoriano del siglo XVIII «George’s Street Arcade» y la impresionante obra maestra georgiana «Powerscout Center».

We had such a special tour with Neil McCourt....he has a wealth of knowledge and a great sense of humor. Our group was the first to reach the Book of Kell’s, which set the standard for a perfect tour. I highly recommend it....and Neil especially!!

We had a wonderful tour of the Library , The Book of Kells and the castle grounds. Our guide, Nathan, is a student at Trinity College majoring in Irish History. He was wonderful! We all felt that we learned so much about Irish history from him. Highly recommend this tour! We loved the early access especially. The line was very long when we left the library!

This was a great tour, we learned so much. Having early access to the book of Kells was definitely worth it. Furthermore, Brian Molloy was an AWESOME guide. He presented all the knowledge he has about about the history of Dublin/Ireland like storytelling, not just spewing facts. You can tell he really loves what he does. High recommend the tour.

Our tour guide Neil was the best. He was knowledgeable and funny. He was very careful not to lose anyone who was lagging behind. He even helped us find our next destination when the tour was over. I specifically went for the 8 a.m. tour so the crowds would be light which I highly recommend to everyone.

Regardless of your faith, this document is to be seen. The commitment and artistry to create this is beyond my imagination and I Have seen many illuminated manuscripts. The display is very well done and you can linger in the display. It is worth the investment to skip the lines because even the "limited" lines were LONG.

The book is impressiveness. This history as presented by the guide (Nathan) was extraordinary. Very effective teacher that had lots of stories to illuminate the sites. Sufficient time to ask questions. One of the highlights of our trip.

We went expecting a two hour early access tour of The Book of Kells and Dublin Castle. It ended up being well over 4 hours and we had to leave early as we booked something else. Wish we would of had better explanation. Overall very good with great info about the book. Lots of walking but very educational.

Early access to the Book of Kells was not available on the day we had booked due to a State visit, so this tour did impact on our day as we had to start everything later. However this was unusual so if the tour had started on time we would have no hesitation in recommending this tour!

Nathan , the tour guide was very knowledgeable and humerous. He was very attentive and had good insight of being a student at Trinity College. Not quite enough time inside or early enough to read information on book.

We visited the Trinity College, the Book of Kells, and Dublin Castle. Our guide Brian Molloy was very entertaining and brought Irish history to life. He told us interesting and funny anecdotes, sang ;-) and was really passionately about his city. He answered all our question patiently and made the tour a perfect start for our visit of Dublin.

Inside Book of Kells exhibit is self guided unless you rent audio device. Lots to read. Don't miss tour of Trinity College. You get dropped off at Book of Kells. Go in knowing something about the exhibit.

The tour guide Phil was great for the first half of the tour, but after break to look at gift shop, I got lost from the group. They were not anywhere where Phil said to meet up. No way to contact the tour guide for the second half of the tour, and the second half of the tour I was not allowed in without the guide/group. The money was wasted. Was very upset about this. The phone/contact number for the touring company was absolutely no help, and had no idea of the tour guide or how to reach him. Bad management of company.

Very enjoyable tour. Not only see the Book of Kell’s you learn about Trinity College. The walk down to the Dublin Castle the guide took us to see Molly Malone statue, walked us thru part of Dublin pointing out good Restaurants and Bars. Allot more than is advertised by Viator.

The Book of Kells and the Long Room/Library at Trinity College is a must see while visiting Dublin! We explored the college the day before our tour and saw the LONG lines of tourists waiting to get in. The next morning, we were escorted to the front of the line at 930am before the exhibit opened and were the first people to see the Book of Kells and to enter the library. This, in itself, was worth the price of the ticket! Our tourguide, Phil, was full of knowledge and extremely personable throughout. In addition to the Library, Phil took us to Dublin Castle and provided us with additional insight to the history of the city. Definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Dublin!

This was a fantastic tour: guide was on time, super knowledgable, very humorous, and really brought the Book of Kells, Library, and quick walking tour of downtown and the Dublin Castle to life. You can tell when a guide knows his stuff, enjoys the work, and really wants you to experience their town and country--this tour does this and more. And who wouldn't love the quick, easy access to the Book Of Kells as we did. Job well done. Well worth the booking in advance!
