We started our trip with riding the Hop on Hop Off bus for a few stops and then getting off and walking up to St. Michans. This is a church that has crypts and is best known for the mummies that visitors can see! We arrived just as a tour had left, so looked around a bit while we waited.... More

I love crypts so this was a high priority for me to visit. As it wasn't on our itinerary, I had to get there myself. We were in Dublin 3 times. The first day was a Sunday, not open. The second was a Saturday, only open until 12:30. I finally made it on a Friday where I took the 2:00... More

St Michan's Church and crypts were are definitely a must see in Dublin Our tour was made all the better by the phenomenal guide we had to bring us under the church to meet an 800 year old mummy! Absolutely fascinating history behind the crypts as the people laid to rest there. if you aren't a fan of dark, underground... More

This was a VERY COOL tour of the crypts beneath the wonderful old church. We were able to view closely the mummified remains of what is believed to be a crusader. Some of the oldest coffins were accidently broken open at some point, and mummified remains were discovered. The stone steps leading down to the crypts are hazardous for older... More

Thanks to the most wonderful Vicar who recently renewed our wedding vows for us. After the service he gave us a personal guided tour of the crypts. Wow! Shaking hands with an 800 year old corpse......who can say they did that after their wedding??? AMAZING!!

The guide is very entertaining and very informative. You need to be able to navigate steep slippery steps to go down into the tomb area. There are two areas that you can go into and at the last one the guide 'dares' you to go pet one of the mummies. Inside the church is very nice. When I walked in,... More

I took a group of teenagers here, they loved it. The guide is eccentric but they were enthralled by him and loved the idea of the mummies. Good value. Only the fit and lively will be able for the descent into the crypt.

It's not earth-shattering, but for €5.00, you get to touch an 800-year old mummy. Pretty interesting, although the delivery from the tour guide tends away from quirky and more towards amateur dramatics gone wrong. I sincerely hope he established where the Asian member of the group was from before making comments on about "Mr Kim pushing the big red button".

Go here and get yourself on a crypt tour. You get to see mummified bodies and explore a couple of the crypts. The guide is excellent. Quirky and original, a true hidden gem in Dublin!
