    Roy, Emma & Sylvester did a great job. The only thing is; I wished the bus' windows were not blacked out so we could see the city. Was entertaining

    Great experience!

    Had a really fun night! Wish there were even more jump scares, but that’s coming from an adrenaline junkie haha! Great host Roy and Emma! We definitely recommend getting a drink at the pub at the end (good Guinness).

    Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.

    How much does Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin cost?

    +

    Prices start at $40 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dublin usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dublin is not rushed.

    Is Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 581 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin?

    +

    Around 203 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dublin can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dublin and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dublin within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Dublin?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Dublin experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dublin to Belfast Titanic Dunluce Castle Giants Causeway Tour, Dublin to Belfast Black Cab: Dunluce Castle and Giant's Causeway, Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Dublin?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Dublin?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin?

    +

    Included: Local guide; and Alcoholic beverages. Not included: Food and drinks, unless specified; Gratuities; and Entrance to the places. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin?

    +

    Bus stop right outside H&M in College Green. Please be there 10 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Gravedigger 2-Hour Ghost Bus Tour From Dublin if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Dublin. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
