Hello and welcome to Cork! My name is Darren, I was born in Cork City. I have been providing Taxi Tours for over 29 years. In that time I have accumulated a lot of local knowledge about my city and surrounding areas. It is always a pleasure to share these experiences . When choosing a tour it is very important you pick a guide with local knowledge and a passion for their job, that's where I come in! I love nothing more than to showcase my city and surrounding areas. I can assure you no matter what tour you choose you will take home memories that will stay with you for years to come. The Private Tours I provide will have something for everybody. No matter if its a trip to Blarney Castle and Gardens where the world famous stone is situated. Or maybe it's a scenic tour of Kinsale fishing village with cliff views overlooking the wild Atlantic Ocean. Even a walk around Cork City that is over 850 years old. I believe taking a Private Tour is the best way to explore the local beauty a City has to offer. I would love the opportunity to take you places tour buses can't access. It's the stories and laughter that make for a great day. 29 years experience behind me and local knowledge help provide you with a magical day to remember. I am fully insured and have been police vetted. I hold a Public Service Vehicle and Drivers licence.
