James Joyce and Dublin.

Hello and welcome! I have been leading tours of my native city for almost a decade and am at my happiest showing guests the highways and hidden byways, weaving tales from over a thousand years of history. The Vikings, Norman and Georgian periods are amongst my favourites as are the writers of this UNESCO city of literature. I have extensive guiding experience working in Cathedrals, Interpretive centres and leading walking tours. My guiding philosophy is to first inform but also entertain using a combination of factual information, anecdotes, visual aids and lots of humour, learn a little, laugh a lot! All my tours are bespoke and take into account the interests and needs of my guests. I look forward to guiding you around my city soon. I graduated with Distinction from Dublinia, a centre of Viking and Medieval studies. Among the subjects covered were Archaeology, Folklore, Local history, Irish culture and Communications. I have extensive guiding experience and have created and delivered bespoke tours to a wide spectrum of audiences. I am a member of the Independent Tour Guides of Ireland and fully insured. I am not a driver but can accompany you in a car or coach if required. Certain attractions like Dublin Castle, Kilmainham Goal have their own in-house guides, so I do not guide there but can accompany you.
