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.

Awesome experience! - Was very impressed with Christ church. When you arrive and purchase your ticket you were able to use your phone to scan a UR code to be able to listen to all of the tour as you walk through. I would suggest earbuds, we forgot ours but were able to do the tour without disturbing anyone. Very well done tour with loads of information. You’re surrounded by the history and the beauty of this amazing building. Do you check times because they do have services.

Very pretty - We visited this church which is very beautiful and has different very interesting spaces. Admission is subject to charge (12€ per person). An interesting point: the tile floor is authentic and very colorful which gives a very nice appearance to the building.

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 to see while walking - Beautiful place especially from the outside with the "bridge". We found it more beautiful outside than inside so I don’t especially recommend taking tickets just to walk around.

Old & authentic - Beautiful cathedral we would recommend seeing. Within walking distance to so many other things. Unfortunately the crypt was closed.

Decent Tour - My wife and I took the tour that is offered by the church. The tour took 45 minutes and did a good job of hitting the highlights of the church. The group was a little bigger than I would have preferred but overall I thought that the tour was worthwhile.

Beautiful old Cathedral - We popped into Christ Church because we had some spare time on a trip to Dublin and are so glad we did! We did the self guided tour, and especially liked the crypt, with the mummified cat and rat, the Magna Carta, the statues of Kings Charles I and II and the old stocks. The Cathedral itself is beautiful, there's a good audio guide available, and also a shop in the crypt. Allow an hour to visit and take it all in.

Impressive crypt - Enjoyed walking around the church. Did not take a guided tour. The crypt is quite impressive with a copy of the Magna Carta on display.
