I am married and my wife Kathryn and I have three wonderful sons. I have been involved in tourism now since 2001. I have completed many tourism courses with our national tourism agency Failte Ireland. My expertise is in local tours to Counties Wicklow, Wexford, Meath and Louth along Ireland's spectacular east coast. I am also extremely interested in Northern Ireland, with it's troubled past and remarkable peace process, and operate private tours to Belfast on a regular basis. I can assure you that what I offer is unique. As a qualified local badged guide, you can be assured of a professional, informal and fun excursion from start to finish. My wish for you: consider booking one of my private excursion at the start of your vacation to Ireland. I will offer you a true insight into Ireland's history past and present. Let me share lots of information on places to see and things to do, this will enhance your experience on our amazing Emerald Isle. I look forward to meeting you on my tours during 2016.

Damian was a superb guide on our first day in Dublin. He was a great source of info about where to go in Dublin- was very willing to go beyond just Powerscourt and give great suggestions. Wonderful to travel with him and just talk about Irish history , Politics and culture. Recommend without any reservation whatsoever.
Edwin L.United States
Damian was a very knowledgeable and considerate guide. He was on time in picking us up and made sure we saw as much as possible in the time permitted. He took us to the Powerscourt Estate which we enjoyed very much and would recommend seeing on a visit to Dublin.
Charles M.United States
Damian was a true Irish gem. His knowledge and courteous way gave us a great history of Ireland while at the same time showing us all the great places to go while we were on our own in Dublin for the next day and a half. Thanks for a truly great time in Dublin. We will be back.
