Hi, My name is Mydie and I am a born and bred Dubliner. I've lived here all my life and know the city and surrounding counties like the back of my hand. Dublin is situated in a great location right beside the sea and only a few miles from beautiful countryside which I know very well from many years of going there with my now grown up 3 children. I have always had a love of the outdoors and the history of different places. That of course with my love for people and chatting with them made me decide to become a tour guide 10 years ago so I would never have to work again. I can adjust any tour to your liking but here is a general view of some of my tours: 1. Wicklow tour. Pick up at hotel/cruise ship, drive through south Dublin City and out along scenic South Coast stopping along the way. Choose between visiting historic wicklow jail or the world famous Powerscourt Gardens. Then on to the 6th century monastic site of Glendelough in the valley of 2 lakes after exploring its back on the road over the hauntingly beautiful Sally's gap and Glenmacnaas waterfall to Dublin. 2. Pick up at hotel/cruise ship. Drive to trim castle in Co. Meath after exploring its onto Hill of Tara and the neolithic tombs at Newgrange. Then passing the site of the famous Battle of the Boyne its onto the monastic site of Monasterboice and then drive back to Dublin. 3. Walking tour of Dublin. Pick up at hotel/cruise ship. We will walk through the city of Dublin, passing so many famous and not so famous places like trinity college, St Patricks cathedral, Dublin Castle to name a few. Along the way we will stop to eat fish and chips at Irelands oldest chipper, homemade ice-cream at Murphys and finish of at a pub for a well deserved Guinness or Irish whiskey. So, why not come on a tour with me and we will have a great day out! Fully insured licensed driver None

This was a very cool experience. Mydie was knowledgeable and a very bubbly, friendly person. We enjoyed her company and learning a little about some very old Ireland history.

Mydie helped to make our day an amazing experience! I am traveling with my two older daughters and they both said they really enjoyed the day - not only because of what we saw and where we went, but because Mydie was so helpful and full of information and listened to what the girls were interested in doing. We were able to hit some bucket list moments today and if we ever come back, Mydie is the first person we'll get in touch with for more tours!

The tour was very good. There were a number of smaller sites on the tour that were good to visit, in addition to the larger site. The larger sites had required guided tours. These were good experiences, but limited time at the smaller sites. But if one's main interest is the larger sites at Newgrange or Trim Castle, the tour is recommended.

Mydie was a fantastic guide and joy to spend the day with visiting some castles! She has a real, charming energy and made the experience. The sites we visited were just the kind of thing I was hoping to see. I’m sure I will stay in touch with Mydie and was so glad to have met her and taken her tour!

Mydie was a joy to tour with! She was prompt, cheerful, fun, knowledgeable and made navigating the maze of streets in Dublin and environs a breeze. Even though we had to cut our tour of County Meath short for personal reasons, we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her. She made us feel like family. We would definitely recommend her to anyone visiting the Dublin area. Well worth the money!

Mydie did a great job with our group today. She was patient, entertaining, and kind. The trips she took us on were outstanding and we had, all in all, a great experience. I would definitely recommend booking her services and if I find myself here again I will reach out.
