The Dark Hours tour was amazing. A great (honest, hilarious) look at ancient myth. Paudie was amazing and deserves all your love forever and ever. I highly recommend this tour.

Stunning atmosphere, wonderful storytellers & friendly staff... A must if you're visiting Dublin. Adults should try the evening tours on Thursday, Friday & Saturday as well!

Very nice place for those who love old stories and fairytales. Loved climbing the furniture here, great fun! Sinead, our guide, was out of this world, thanks to her for the mini-adventure.

It seemed a bit childish at the beginning but it was quite enjoyable in the end. Sinead, our guide was a bit crazy, but in a good way. We learned many things about Leprechauns.

A refreshing place with super staff telling old stories and folklore tales. Not twee or tacky but sympathetic to our lost culture of storytelling

I went through their supposedly best tour, which happens at night and requires you to book ahead. It was some OK storytelling, but definitely not worth €18 each. Unimpressive walk.

If you want to listen to a 15min fairy tale for 14€ it is your place

Disappointing. Only a couple of rooms that made just for photo's. Best part is walking thru the rainbow

An overpriced "storytelling" museum. All the "exhibits" seem like leftover props from a university drama production.

Very bad management. They were meant to be free all night on culture night. Open til 10. But they took bookings in advance and wouldn't let people in on the night. 100s turned away. So unfair.

If I knew what it was, I would have never visited it. Boring and not even for children. Very expensive.

Not really worth the time or discounted ticket price. Go to a real museum with things in it.

There are no leprechauns. Very cheap sets, your 'tour' is guided by a storyteller who leads you into 4-5 different rooms where you are told stories from Irish mythology. Fun for little kids ONLY.

Единственное, что действительно порадовало, это только первая комната с большой мебелью, где можно было полазить и все потрогать. Остальная часть музея скучная и только на один раз
