Hi there, my name is Sean a Corkman born and bred with Kerry ancestry and lived for a time in Boston Massachusetts, U. S. A. I have a great passion for Ireland's history, scenery , people, sport and music . I guess you could say im about as Irish as they come what with the red hair , a grandfather who played a significant role in The Irish War of Independence and a real love for Ireland and its people. Ive been a tour guide for the last number of years now. All my tours are adaptable to include any requested destination and indeed ive often done tours comprising of places that the customer has picked out themselves. I look forward to hearing from you and be assured that on my tours you will be made welcome and a little music en route will all add to your experience of touring this majestic Irish homeland. I am a fully certified driver with the Irish National Transport Authority who is Garda vetted(Police vetted) and i also hold a TEFL ( Teach English as a Foreign Language) certificate,this ensures that my speech is clear and my diction easy to understand for those on my tours. Many tourists with a little command of the English language have expressed their thanks at the way i delivered my tour trying my best to make sure they understood all the information i have to impart about our beautiful country. There are certain destinations on tour e.g.Blarney Castle or Charles Fort,Kinsale where an admission fee might be needed and i will not be guiding inside,i normally let the customers proceed on their own at this point.

Sean's time management was excellent in keeping our group of 8 on track so we could see all the expected sights and more. He also knew just the right spots for photos and captured the moments for our group. Sean was very accommodating, especially with the last minute port change. This was a great tour for our group.
Sean is excellent in all aspects of your guiding. He goes the extra mile to make you comfortable and provide an incredible tour experience!
Sean is an excellent guide and a charming man. Very sensitive to physical limitations but encouraging us to see all the sights. One of the best!
When visiting Cork, you must visit Blarney Castle but do visit it with Sean! He will unveil it’s surrounding beauty and charming secrets. It was a real highlight tour of the British Isles for the eight of us . The Atlanta Travelers.
Sean was a pleasure to work with. He gave us a wonderful tour of Blarney Castle and the gardens. He showed us about Cork, taking us to the market and the cathedral. And he even amended his tour to take us down to see the Kindred Spirits monument! We had a wonderful time with Sean. I would absolutely recommend his tour for anyone looking to visit Cork!
Sean was great! He was very knowledgeable about Cork’s history and was extremely accommodating to our group of six. Would highly recommend!
