Book of Kells

This stop was well worth it. We had tickets for 9:30. Of course, we were first in line. Even with only 25% of the books left, this library made my heart happy. Walking in you could SMELL the old books. They had videos of the process of removing, cleaning, cataloging and storing the books. The way the categories and organization of the books went was so easy. Better than the dewy decimal system. This was a fabulous stop!

Also, I was a bit flustered because I could not get my phone's mobile global pass to work.Read more

Traveler My feet landed on Ireland soil 25 hours late. So great to have finally arrived. I met Sara and Cory at the hotel. After a quick bite to eat we began the best adventures ever!

Traveler Book of Kells was amazing. Definitely worth ur pre-booking that assured us a viewing. I really wanted to touch the books. Sara is right, the vintage smell was great.
