Hi there! I am Diana :)
 My passion in life (next to my loved ones) is travelling and meeting new people, showing others the beauty of the world, art in various forms. My private guided day tours are experiences that are unique and are a great way to do an interesting activity without being overwhelmed. You get to do something only few other travellers would get to do and a chance to gain a local perspective. On many of the tours we would enjoy a picnic at an atmospheric spot. As your guide, I want to open you the door to Ireland's untouched beauty, from scenic cliffs to fairytale like forests and would point out many details you wouldn't uncover on your own. You might also like to do an activity which can be difficult without local knowledge, like hiking or horse riding - I am here to help and guide you.  
I'll handle all the planning and the driving on the left hand side of the road, so all you have to do is sit back, relax, and soak in the beautiful sights and compelling stories. Ireland won't leave you untouched and I will be delighted to be your guide and 'local expert' here. Hope to see you on one of my trips to the heart and soul of our beautiful country! - Failte Ireland Accredited Tour Guide - Member of ITGA (Independent Tour Guide Association) - PHD in Language and Culture Studies N/A

We were on a Viking cruise to the British Island's , so happy Dublin was a port of call. I always book with T by L vs the Ships tours , more $$ but well worth it. My first time in IRE so wanted to get real feel of countryside and culture . We had no interest the City of Dublin ,which I am sure is great but wanted something different . We met Diana at a cafe near the port to discuss our day . We hit it off as she totally understood our ideas on itin . Based on our thoughts she planned the perfect day .. I got my taste of beautiful countryside , Guinness Lake ( which is off the beaten path) unreal waterfalls , plenty of roaming sheep. Dianna knows her stuff , history and has great pride in her profession. We stopped for lunch at her local pub which was delightful Definitely would recommend Diana We had just a great day with a great person Thanks again D

Diana provided a wonderful tour of Powerscourt, Glendalough, and Wicklow Mountains. She was extremely knowledgeable of the area’s history, culture, flora and fauna. She shared many interesting details her about the region’s beautiful trees and plants, which were of special interest to us. She took the time to get to know us and to personalize the tour and discussion. I would highly recommend this tour with Diana.

Despite the rainy weather, we had a wonderful day on our tour with Diana. When she picked us up at our hotel, she made the very helpful suggestion to ask the hotel for umbrellas - which turned out to be very helpful for our tour with the weather. She had a lot of great information about each of the sites we visited, as well as suggestions for additional activities in Dublin with some suggested restaurants. Diana was kind, knowledgeable and accommodating to make sure we got the most out of the trip. Be sure to look for her the next time you’re considering a private tour!
