Hi, what’s the craic? I’m Henry, a Fáilte Ireland approved National Tour Guide and professional driver based in County Donegal, Ireland. I specialise in private, bespoke Donegal tours for small groups, couples, and families looking to experience the real heart of the North West of Ireland. Born and bred in North West Donegal, I’m a native of the Donegal Gaeltacht in An Fál Carrach, with strong family ties to Tory Island (Oileán Thoraigh), where I spent many summers growing up. Today, I live in Buncrana on the Inishowen Peninsula, perfectly positioned to guide visitors across Donegal’s most spectacular landscapes. I’m a devoted husband and proud dad of three and I bring a warm, personal touch to every tour. With a background in TV and radio presenting and experience as a crew member on award-winning documentaries filmed in Donegal, I don’t just show you the sights , I tell the stories that bring them to life. I'm proud to be a Fáilte Ireland approved Local, Regional and National Tour Guide, fully licensed and insured to transport passengers. I hold both PSV and SPSV driving licences and I own a fleet of luxury Mercedes-Benz vehicles, all approved by the National Transport Authority of Ireland. My private Donegal tours are relaxed, flexible and tailored entirely to your interests and pace. Whether you’re tracing your Donegal ancestry, exploring the dramatic scenery of the Wild Atlantic Way, discovering hidden beaches, historic sites, and local culture or simply looking for a comfortable chauffeur-driven tour of Donegal, I’ll create a personalised experience just for you and your group. Join me as I show you my homeland, County Donegal and sure, we’ll have plenty of craic (fun) along the way!

Prepare for an unforgettable journey along Northern Ireland’s spectacular Causeway Coast, where ancient history, dramatic landscapes, and legendary filming locations come together. Begin in the historic Derry Walled City, allowing time to walk the 17th-century walls or step inside the much-loved Derry Girls Experience. Follow the rugged coastline to the clifftop ruins of Dunluce Castle, perched above the Atlantic and instantly recognisable to 'Game of Thrones' fans. From here, continue to the legendary Giant's Causeway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This visit is self-guided, skipping the visitor centre so you can spend more time among the iconic basalt columns and coastal views. The journey continues to the picturesque Ballintoy Harbour, before an optional whiskey tasting at Bushmills Distillery. We finish beneath the haunting beech trees of 'The Dark Hedges'. Join me for a day rich in scenery, stories, and iconic locations, an ideal experience for visitors and Game of Thrones fans alike.
