Cead Mile Failte My name is Barry and I'm a vibrant travel enthusiast from the smallest county in Ireland. I'm a fully approved Failte Ireland National Tour Guide and hold a full SPSV licence. I've been doing private tours of Ireland in my fresh luxury MPV for over 8 years now (Up to 6 persons per tour). I've a real passion for my country and the feedback I get from my guests makes doing my job all the more satisfying. I really like to go 'above and beyond' to make the experience extra special for all my guests. I'm a country boy at heart and grew up on the family potato farm outside Ardee, in County Louth. I travelled the world all over in my 20's and developed a true love for what I now do back then. Meeting new people and simply having the best fun. I worked many years in the Food and Drink industries in various sales management roles before eventually been brave enough to set up my own adventure within the tourism sector. I'm a major sports fan and in particular for our own national game 'Gaelic Football' which I played for many years and have coached at senior level. I'm extremely passionate about Irish History, Heritage and Culture and my tours really give you an insight into the real Emerald Isle.

What a perfect four day visit we had with Barry to see the Giants Causeway and other northern sites. Prompt pickup at Dublin airport and off we went to Belfast and the Antrim coast. Barry knows the area well and is flexible and accommodating.....wonderful way to tour without the stress of driving or getting on/off buses. After a few days in the north he delivered us to our Dublin hotel. My husband and I look forward to a longer tour with Barry in the southwest of Ireland in the near future.
If you want a unique experience from a knowledgeable local then Barry is your man. Barry provides a VIP experience. Every day was full of memorable moments, wonderful meals and the right combination of known destinations and hidden gems . Look no further, Barry is your guide for an unforgettable experience in the Emerald Isle.
Barry is an outstanding tour guide, with a strong knowledge of Irish history. We spent two days with Barry on a Galway, Kilkenny, and Waterford tour, and he catered to our interests and he stopped multiple times for local photo opportunities. The tour and our time with Barry exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend him to others.
Barry is a courteous and professional tour leader who is passionate about his Irish culture/heritage and respectful of clients' interests. We visited many sites and had opportunities to interact with the locals to gain the most experience in a 2-day tour plan. With that, we thank Barry for his well-organized schedule and flexibility. It was indeed a grand and cheerful time!!
I highly recommend choosing Barry to be your tour guide in Ireland! My husband and I wanted to see as much as possible in a relatively short period of time. Barry put together a four-day customized tour from Dublin to Killarney and on to Galway ensuring we optimized our journey with the beautiful sites of Ireland we had dreamed of experiencing! He made the trip very enjoyable with his accommodating, friendly and upbeat nature. His recommendations of restaurants,, pubs, shops, etc. were reliably great!
