• 4-hour tour: due to the cathedral's rules, 1 licensed guide can lead a group of 1-20 people, so the price of the tour will be higher if you need more than 1 guide.

CANCELLATION POLICY

While the Book of Kells self-guided tour was good, it was a bit disappointing, perhaps because of my expectations. There were too many people at one time, making it difficult to thoroughly read and digest displays. I had also expected to see more of the Book itself, though I now see that that isn't possible without destroying it.

However, we loved our guide,
Ben, who then took us on a walking tour of the area surrounding the Temple College campus. He was very knowledgeable, answering all of the questions my group threw at him and providing interesting history and facts. Thank you, Ben! You made our day!!
