Under the radar gem with this short (less than an hour) and inexpensive (€7 each cash only) tour. The tour consists of a chance to walk throw the small church where Handel seems to have played the Messiah on the organ plus a walk through two centuries old crypts with mummified remains and ample stories. Check hours before going. We arrived during a midday break when the site was closed but found lunch nearby and came back. It's about 5 minutes' walk across the bridge and up the hill from the Brazen Head

This is a true hidden gem in Dublin! Our tour guide, Andrew, was so knowledgeable, and the history in this church is so fascinating! You can see some of the crypts and their mummified residents, and the church keeps the tour very respectful of the dead. We also met Olive and Tom. They were so sweet and made the visit that much better! This was my favorite thing we did in Dublin!

Time well spent in Dublin! This was a well priced tour with rich interesting history from a great friendly host (John) who had great banter and knowledge of the area. He also offered me great recommendations for where else to go for any history buffs. 10/10, would recommend!

We race walked 20 minutes across town to get to this church thinking it would be closed. We were relieved to discover that we were indeed in time, for the last tour of the day. The delightful, welcoming reception from Beatrice and Olive has to be noted. These 2 friendly women were so warm and fun and we felt like we found the place we needed to be! This is such a cool and interesting tour, you are actually in the cold, dark crypt's looking at deceased bodies that are unimaginably so preserved. Our tour guide Tom, was so informative, warm and friendly and even gave a great dinner recommendation!! This is a must do tour!!

This is a must to do in Dublin. It starts with the friendliest welcome at the cash desk ever. Love you ladies. They placed us on a tour which was just started to avoid waiting time…so nice. The tour guide….so much passion for his guests and a great balance of information and fun… Do the tour in the morning - why - because this team gives you a great start of the day…

The most underrated place in Dublin. It was my favourite place of all! ~ You only have to pay 5eur for the tour to see the crypt. You get to see mummies and the remains of well known Irish families. You can literally, see the coffins so as the remains right in front of you. I found it fascinating. I also learned a lot about the story of the mummies and even Bram Stoker. Did you know he used to come to this same crypt with his mother? There are people who believe the mummies inspired him to create Cond Dracula. I didn't post any photos of the remains because we're not allowed to take photos. Also, pay attention to the time of the tours. There are specific time schedules to visit the crypt. I did my tour at midday on a Monday. I'd also like to thank again to our tour guide (unfortunately, I can't recall his name).

I used to visit the crypt and its fascinating mummies very often when I lived in Dublin. The last time I went was in June 2001 with my ten year old son who was visibly impressed. The Crusader was the most interesting as he is 800 years old and had most likely been on Crusade with Richard the Lionheart. Sadly the mummies were destroyed last week by an intruder who broke in and set fire to them. They were truly marvellous y so well-preserved
