I am married and my wife Kathryn and I have three wonderful sons. I have been involved in tourism now since 2001. I have completed many tourism courses with our national tourism agency Failte Ireland. My expertise is in local tours to Counties Wicklow, Wexford, Meath and Louth along Ireland's spectacular east coast. I am also extremely interested in Northern Ireland, with it's troubled past and remarkable peace process, and operate private tours to Belfast on a regular basis. I can assure you that what I offer is unique. As a qualified local badged guide, you can be assured of a professional, informal and fun excursion from start to finish. My wish for you: consider booking one of my private excursion at the start of your vacation to Ireland. I will offer you a true insight into Ireland's history past and present. Let me share lots of information on places to see and things to do, this will enhance your experience on our amazing Emerald Isle. I look forward to meeting you on my tours during 2016.

Damian was the very best! He treated us like family and we felt blessed to have him as our guide. His only concern was for our needs. His suggestions for the order of what to see when were perfect, and we beat the crowds and timed the weather perfectly also! Besides great knowledge of the area he welcomed all types of questions about daily life. We can't say enough about how great our tour experience was. I highly recommend him and we will reserve Damian again on our next trip to Ireland. Awesome!!!!
