Dia duit - Hello , My name is Liam, a proud Cork man born and bred. I am a full time driver / guide with almost 25 years experience giving Private Tours around my native city and surrounding counties. Prior to that my wife and I had a pub in the Shandon area of the city, in the shadow of Saint Anne's Church where you can hear the famous bell's ring out. My interest are travel , we have traveled to many exotic places around the world and while traveling to these destinations and taking tours by local guides , gave me a taste to share what I know about my city . I also love history, walking, music and poetry and of course my dogs Zeus and Cosmo. Booking a Private Tour is a great way to see a region. I would love the opportunity to take you on adventure around Cork sharing with you its rich history and some amazing architecture. We'll have plenty of opportunities to stretch our legs and take some photos as I highlight the features of each spot. So if you like to explore Ireland's ancient east , the Wild Atlantic Way, or wherever you want to visit, seeing and hearing stories and places only a local would know, I welcome question's as I love sharing my knowledge . As a local and a professional driver you could say I know Cork pretty well . Kind regards , Liam. I am a full time registered chauffeur for almost 25 years I am the holder of both the Public Service Vehicle and Drivers licence, Issued by the by the National Transport Authority . I am fully insured and Garda (police) vetted. I am not restricted access to any of the Historical or Heritage sites. However, State owned sites that have got their own guide's giving tour's such sites we'll fall in with their guided tour's.

    Our tour with Liam was outstanding! He was able to take us to Blarney Castle before most people arrived so we didn’t have to wait long to kiss the stone. He was flexible and ensured he tailored the tour to places/things we wanted to see. We feel like we have a friend in Cork with Liam! 🩷Book him if you’re visiting the area-you won’t be disappointed!

    Liam is a very good tour guide, friendly and personable with a detailed knowledge of Irish history, and especially the County Cork. We began our day with a leisurely stroll around Blarney Castle and it’s beautiful gardens and grounds (avoiding the very long queue to climb the Castle stairs to kiss the stone, at our request), then toured Cork city, with a leisurely drive...

    The day Liam was AWESOME!! There is NO WAY we could have seen or learned as much as we did on our own or on a big bus. Liam was so knowledgeable of the history of everything we saw. He was able to get us in and out of places in good timing. He took photographs of our group everywhere we went. He knew all the good locations for great pictures. The stories he shared were...

    Hi Kim thank you for such a wonderful review. Each and every one of you were great to be with from Brad and Walter to Stacy and yourself all so friendly. It was another one of these days that it was like going for a drive with a couple of friends. Those days are always the best. Tell everyone I said hello. Warm regards, Liam
