Dublin

I’m a private tour guide and driver based in the Boyne Valley, offering personalized visits to Newgrange, the wider Boyne Valley and Scenic Wicklow. I collect guests from their accommodation in Dublin or Meath and bring them on a relaxed and informative day out in a comfortable sedan for up to three guests or a Mercedes MPV for groups of up to six. Each tour is crafted around your interests, with archaeology, stories and local history woven into the day. I’m a qualified National Tour Guide and a fully licensed driver and my aim is to provide a warm welcome and a memorable experience.

Thomastown

A Thomastown native with a gift for storytelling and a great sense of humor! I've been entertaining visitors with tales of Kilkenny's medieval past for over 20 years. Whether it's the legends of the castles or the craic in the local pubs, I'll make sure your tour is as fun as it is informative.

Killarney

Professional licensed national tour guide since 1992. I am a graduate of 'Genealogy' and 'Irish Heritage and Folklore' from UCC. I offer private bespoke day and multi-day tours specialising in the South West along the Wild Atlantic Way. I avoid the fixed 'bus tour' circuit as much as possible and focus on off-the-beaten-path places as well as the main attractions.
