I'm Tanya J., your private tour guide in Dublin

Guide #25854

Hello everyone! I'm a Certified National Guide for over 15 years and still love every minute of it! My very first tour around Ireland was with a group of corporate clients. The tour ended with us all singing folk songs in the cellar bar of a castle hotel together with an Irish rockstar who happened to be there on the night. It is that mixture of meeting interesting people coupled with the unpredictability of where the highways and byways of Ireland will lead that still fuels my enthusiasm for every tour. I also did a Masters in Business Studies specializing in Tourism Management but for me the most important "study" before every tour is to "read the audience"! Over the years I have guided many special interest groups such as journalists, actors, football teams, business and political leaders. My aim is to always to find out what makes THEM tick and respond in an informative and entertaining way. Being a mum of three kids I also know how to show families and younger visitors the sights of Dublin in a fun way. My hidden talents are playing an old traditional Irish instrument (you might get a sample during our tour) and knowing how to make proper Irish butter from scratch! ;-) Actually, I love anything food and drink related and enjoy sharing local restaurant and pub gems. Please join me on a memorable insider tour of Dublin, tailored to YOU and great fun for all in your party! Looking forward to meeting you! - Irish Tourist Board Approved National Tour Guide with over 15 years Guiding experience, fully licensed and insured. - Extensive experience with varied clients: Families, Corporate Execs, High Profile Visitors, Special Interest Groups, Journalists, Sports Teams, Adventure Seekers, Foodies and Nature Lovers. - Masters in Business Studies - Fluent German Speaker I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car/ minibus or coach with driver.

    Tanya was an amazing tour guide. She provided us with incredible history of the area and many ideas on restaurants, sites and memorable activities to explore while in Dublin. She was interesting, funny, and a delightful person to spend three hours exploring Dublin with,
