Trinity College Literary Tour

5.00The literary tour on Trinity College was one of the best tours my daughter and I have been on while in Dublin. Our tour guides were knowledgeable and kind. I thoroughly enjoyed all the history about the famous authors from Trinity College. We especially enjoyed all of the information about the few female authors that are celebrated on campus. The Oscar Wilde play was absolutely fantastic. The scrip was well written and the acting was great! Bravo to all that had a part in that production.
