I'm confused about the difference in self guided and guided tours, looks like I can sign up for self guided 14 days in advance but a full tour with guide can't be reserved except on the day of the tour. is that correct? Thanks
A:
Since I stumbled into it, without any planning, so I can't answer your question. Not sure we even had a guided tour option. Sorry to be of no help.
Where is there parking close to Dublin castle? Thanks
A:
Google parking lots near me. We walked and used the Green Hop and Hop Off Bus and walked in town. It's in a commercial area with lots of restaurants so there has to be parking nearby.
Do we need to buy tickets in advance? Do they actually seel out at the ticket booth?
A:
Hi there, tickets are available to book online but we have tickets available for walk-ins as well. These sell out during the day so the earlier you come in, the more choice you have.
