Short summary

I am a versatile, experienced Tour Guide in the West of Ireland. I am a published writer and poet in both English and Irish Gaelic. I have a broad knowledge of local history and wider afield to inform, educate, and entertain my varied clients.
My language skills mean I am able to understand most of what clients ask and I deliver.
I come recommended by everyone who I have worked with in tourism to guide you through our beautiful, historical and vibrant city.
In April, 2021, during the Covid lockdown, I successfully gave the Flockeo online guided tour of my city of Galway as part of Flockeo's initiative of online walking tours in cities across the globe.

Commitments in sustainable tourism

To always leave a site as you found it. Leave nothing behind but your footprint. Walk...cycle...use a bus...in that order.
Support local, indigenous businesses.
Absorb the environment and culture of the region. Try to speak the local language when possible.

I am an energetic and enthusiastic tour guide with some experience. I am an Irish Gaelic speaker who can enlighten you on many interesting topics. I absorb history and pass it on to my clients, embellished with legend and song.

More details

I am the only Tour Guide in the West of Ireland offering the Galway 1916 Tour of the famous, historic Uprising which led to Ireland's partial Independence from Britain. My grandfather, who I never knew, was a veteran of this Rising and was imprisoned in the aftermath.
I also offer bespoke tours of The Burren, Cliffs of Moher, Connemara and the Aran Islands.
