Hello there. I love history, driving and talking so it is no surprise I offer a luxury historical touring service. I have a Masters degree in Medieval Studies and I am a Failte Ireland accredited tour guide. My company is a Dublin Tourism Partner and I have provided press tours for visiting journalists on behalf of Failte Ireland and Dublin Tourism. I am the longest serving and the highest rated driver-guide in Dublin on ToursByLocals. I have been reviewed favourably by some of the biggest newspapers and magazines in the business. (Die Welt, VG, Volkswagen Travel magazine, Vogue). I have also worked on television travel documentaries dealing with Dublin, appeared in some of them and have even provided an open topped bus tour for the Australian X-Factor TV program. I love my city and my country and I like to share this knowledge and passion with visitors. Although Ireland is a small country we are lucky to have so much to see and do and the people are not too bad either!

This tour covers some fabulous countryside and thousands of years of history. You would be picked up from your hotel and driven north of Dublin to the UNESCO world heritage site of Newgrange. This neolithic burial tomb from 3200 bc is the premier historical site in Ireland. You can take a tour of the tomb and actually go inside the passage grave itself to the burial chamber. Simply excellent. Then you would proceed to the ancient (6th century) monastic site of Monasterboice. Not much visited by tour groups but a site that contains a lot of what you expect to see in Ireland. A magnificent Round Tower and two of the finest examples of carved Celtic stone crosses to be found in Ireland. A compact site that punches above it's weight. From there you would drive to The Hill of Slane. Associated with St Patrick it affords spectacular views of the Boyne Valley. Finally one cannot come to Ireland without seeing a castle and Trim Castle is the finest. Tour the grounds and learn about the castle and castle life.
