Cead Mile Failte My name is Barry and I'm a vibrant travel enthusiast from the smallest county in Ireland. I'm a fully approved Failte Ireland National Tour Guide and hold a full SPSV licence. I've been doing private tours of Ireland in my fresh luxury MPV for over 8 years now (Up to 6 persons per tour). I've a real passion for my country and the feedback I get from my guests makes doing my job all the more satisfying. I really like to go 'above and beyond' to make the experience extra special for all my guests. I'm a country boy at heart and grew up on the family potato farm outside Ardee, in County Louth. I travelled the world all over in my 20's and developed a true love for what I now do back then. Meeting new people and simply having the best fun. I worked many years in the Food and Drink industries in various sales management roles before eventually been brave enough to set up my own adventure within the tourism sector. I'm a major sports fan and in particular for our own national game 'Gaelic Football' which I played for many years and have coached at senior level. I'm extremely passionate about Irish History, Heritage and Culture and my tours really give you an insight into the real Emerald Isle.

Barry gave us a wonderful tour going to Cliffs of Moher! So enjoyable to have a personal guide to maximize our time and see as much as possible but in a comfortable laid back style. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and we enjoyed the entire day with him. Thank you Barry!!!!
Fantastic time in the North. Barry was an absolute gentleman and worked out all the details, leaving us free to enjoy the beautiful Irish coastline. If you are considering a private guide, and Barry is available- BOOK IT. You will not regret it.
We visited The Cliffs of Moher with Barry, and we highly recommend him. He is personable, knowledgeable and considerate. His vehicle is a late model BMW which is comfortable and immaculately clean. He provided an invaluable experience by sharing stories of his family, people in his life - and Gaelic football. We left feeing we had the good fortune to experience Ireland...
We just finished a 5 day, private tour with Barry. He is an excellent tour guide! From beginning to end, Barry was knowledgeable, flexible, and organized. Most importantly, he is a very easy-going, kind person. We would use him again without any hesitation, and we highly recommend him.
