Guided tour a must! - Had a guided tour of the cathedral and crypt. I have passed by the cathedral so many times when in Dublin and never realised its history. Thanks to wonderful guide Dì, I learned so much in the hour long tour. Please opt for the guided tour if possible- they bring the story alive - so knowledgeable!! Put a visit on your 'to do list' when next in Dublin! Great value.

Step Back in Time: Dublinia & Christ Church Cathedral - We had a great time visiting Dublinia, the heart of Viking and Medieval Dublin, before heading to Christ Church Cathedral. The combined ticket made it easy to explore both attractions in one go. Dublinia was so much fun—an interactive and engaging experience, probably even better for families with kids! One of the highlights was trying out the Viking runic alphabet—don’t forget to write your name in runes while you’re there! Afterward, we visited Christ Church Cathedral, a stunning and historic landmark that beautifully complements the medieval experience of Dublinia. A must-visit for history lovers!

Stunning building. Suggest to open a coffee shop/restaurant. This would help towards the runnong cost of €5,000 PER DAY - i visited before but disnt visit he crypt due to time constraints. Visited the crypt this time. Would highly recommend it.

Well worth a listen - The Roman and Gothic architecture would pass you by if you didn’t listen to the audio guide…. Look out for the mummified cat and rat

A must see in Ireland - The church is beautiful inside. Is a great opportunity to take pictures. The underground crypt has so much history and is amazing to see. It has a wonderful gift shop.

Dublin Initial Church - Very nice church, audio guide included in the entrance ticket more provided than just the leaflet, welcoming and attentive staff Wheelchair accessible but you have to ask for the ramp to enter and to access the crypt you go around from outside but at least you see everything and it's worth it

Fascinating Cathedral - You can scan the QR code for audio tour or use information leaflet to guide your way around this beautiful and fascinating cathedral and crypt. A visit takes between 30 and 45 mins and makes for a great visit though admission cost for adult is €12.

Must see. Cathedral and crypt - Visit purchased on their site, preferred to St. Patrick since the ticket gave the opportunity to go all day and not on time. The cathedral is interesting and the audio guide explains everything. In particular it is beautiful for the crypt. It's a must!

Beautiful on the outside, no interest on the inside - On the outside it is a beautiful building but inside it has nothing special, for a symbolic price it would still be advisable to dedicate a few minutes but with what it costs I do not recommend it.
