What To Expect

St. Patrick's Cathedral

The cathedral developed this audio tour from script to final production edits. It’s an ever evolving labor of love to communicate as much as we can about St. Patrick’s Cathedral to those who wish to learn. We hope this tour will entertain and educate our millions of returning visitors from around the globe. During the months St. Patrick’s Cathedral was closed, we had the opportunity to overhaul and upgrade the entire audio tour. We added hundreds of new images and audio segments. The tour is offered in English, Spanish, Italian, French and Portuguese.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

I’m disappointed as we had a positive experience with Viator the day before. Our guide didn’t show up and I was unable to contact a live person. I emailed Viator later that day and it’s now two days later and still no response. We toured cathedral on our own without the guided tour. Hopefully we get our tour money. It doesn’t cost anything to go into cathedral so you can experience it without the audio guide.

This is NOT a guided tour. It is the Official Audio tour and you are to check in at the tour desk which is at the entrance.

Nice audio tour, would have liked a little more history of the building, perhaps a little longer - or option for a more in-depth tour.
