I've lived in Dublin city centre and suburbs all my life, and the history of Dublin and it's stories are endlessly surprising, even to someone who lives here. Since I've started with ToursByLocals I've found it to be a lot of fun, and very rewarding to see visitors really engage with the real Dublin! These are the streets of James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, Bono, Sinead O'Connor, Arthur Guinness., (and some baddies too, like Henry the Eighth and a couple of Cromwells..) . . I take little detours when asked (which is a LOT), and I like to make sure that my friends who book onto my tours have the best of times! As a professional musician and producer I've also got some unusual insights into some of the secrets of this world, with the ocassional behind the scenes tale or two. I also have a very special relationship with Dublin's Ha'Penny Bridge, as I personally brokered the deal to make Fender Guitars in honour of Gary Moore and Phil Lynott from the bridge itself! Dublin is an old city, but it's not a museum, it's also a brand new city - this is the same throughout all of Ireland - and I enjoy showing visitors how these worlds live side by side, so you can have fun while being amazed at the same time!

A fantastic day tour of Dublin and Wicklow. Picking you up from your ship or hotel, taking a lovely spin through the romance that is the Viking Dublin City, and then out to the beautiful countryside of mists and ghosts that is the Wicklow Mountains, with options to visit the world famous Powerscourt Gardens, or the 6th Century Abbey at Glendalough (Valley Of The Two Lakes), where you can feel at one with the Spirit Of Ireland.
