👋 Hi! I’m Jim Dempsey. You’ve found a tour that interests you. Now comes the important question: who do you want to spend that day with? ☘ There will be history and stories—and, if we are doing it properly, plenty of fun and craic along the way. That is how I want a private tour to feel: relaxed, personal and shaped around you, not like a lecture or rehearsed script. đŸŽ™ïž I’m a full-time professional guide with more than 20 years’ experience across Dublin and Ireland. Before we begin, I take time to understand your interests, knowledge and preferred pace. Bring your questions and curiosity, and I’ll make Ireland’s people, places and stories interesting, understandable and relevant to you. ⭐ Guests describe me as joyful, funny, deeply knowledgeable and a natural storyteller. Parents often mention how successfully I engage their teenagers. Many guests say that by the end, they feel more like friends than clients. 🎓 I hold both the original Dublin City & Environs and Ireland’s National Tour Guide qualifications. I have taught the National Tour Guide programme six times and have trained and mentored many guides who built successful careers of their own. 🚘 For driving tours, I hold a full SPSV limousine licence and use a new seven-passenger Ford Tourneo Custom. When you book with me, I am the person who communicates with you, meets you, guides you and drives you throughout—there is no handover between guide and driver. ✹ If one of my tours is what you are looking for, you can book it with confidence. If it is almost right but you would like to change the pace, emphasis or itinerary—or combine several days—send me a message. I’ll help you shape the experience that is right for you.
