Little Museum of Dublin: Famous Guided Tour

The Little Museum of Dublin is a unique, award-winning museum that tells the story of the Irish capital over the 20th century. Unlike traditional museums, its collection of over 5,000 artifacts was entirely donated by the public, making it a true 'people's museum'.

Yes! Admission to the Little Museum of Dublin guided tour is included on both the Dublin All-Inclusive Pass and the Dublin Explorer Pass. If you are not purchasing a city pass, booking this standalone €18 ticket locks in your preferred tour slot with 24-hour free cancellation.
