Visiting Trinity College & Book of Kells via HoHo

Best practices for seeing the Book of Kells and Old Library while using the Hop-On Hop-Off bus in Dublin.

Trinity College courtyard and stone buildings

Quick strategy

  1. Arrive early to beat the tour buses
  2. Book a timed-entry for the Book of Kells
  3. After the library, stroll Grafton Street for music and shopping

Why the Old Library matters

  • Architectural highlight: the Long Room
  • Great for photos — use a wide lens for the stacks

Note: Access to the Book of Kells is limited by conservation measures — book in advance.
