Overview

Take a fun ride on the Gravedigger Ghost Bus Tour, the unique 4D bus in Ireland, that combines history with some spookiness.

The tour will start at Trinity College. You will be taken into the old Dublin times, around 600 years back, that had stories of plagues and scary tales.

Hear interesting stories of a city attacked by plague at the Audeons Catholic Church. Many say it's haunted! The tour moves to Kilmainham Prison, a site of several sad events in Ireland's history.

Your next stop is an old cemetery, that's said to be the resting place of several hundred thousand people, including some taken by body snatchers.

The tour ends at the Gravediggers Pub. Here, you get to enjoy a special Ghoulish Brew. Experience Dublin's unique atmosphere and uncover its hidden scary tales.
