Allow some time for dress-up and a heap of photo opportunities. There is a chest full of Viking clothes that student groups can try on.
Christ Church Cathedral is located across the road, so it makes sense to visit these two activities on the same day. Just ask us about our discounted combined ticket for Dublinia and Christ Church Cathedral.
