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.

We'll drive along the coast and Dublin bay heading South east before moving inland towards County Wicklow. Enjoy some of the most spectacular scenery in all of Ireland, its stunning landscapes remote valleys and deep glacial lakes have been seen across the world in many Hollywood block buster movies, Brave Heart, Ps I Love You, Excalibur, Saving private Ryan, all have been filmed within Wicklow national park. A visit to Glendalough will be one of the highlights to your stay in Ireland, steeped in history this site is where St. Kevin established his famous monastic settlement in the 6th century. I will guide you through Glendalough on a personal walking tour: a remarkable location with ruined churches, round towers and amazing trails to explore plus two stunning lakes nestled between a deep glacial valley. I will offer you a true insight into Ireland's history past and present. Join this tour to learn about our art & culture and see why this is called "the garden of Ireland".
Great tour! We saw more than we expected and Damien gave us a wonderful guided tour and then gave us easy to follow instructions so we could explore on our own. Had a few questions before and after we booked and he was very quick to respond and generous in providing info we needed. Vehicle was clean and super comfortable. Damian was a great guide full of information and stories! If we ever go back to Ireland would not hesitate in booking another tour with him. Enjoy!
Wonderful tour. Damion is a top notch guide and can point out sites of importance from the natural to the historical. Highly recommended.
Our tour with Damian was at the beginning of our stay in Ireland. His tour was full of insights--mixing history, geography, economic and social dimensions of the Irish landscape and people. He customized and paced the trip based on our needs, and made sure we made the most of our trip. He knows the area, he knows the people, and his tour is full of local insights and stories. Throughout the rest of our travels in Ireland, we continued to take advantage of his recommendations, which were stellar. Thank you Damian.
Damian did an excellent job taking us through the city and out to the country. He was very knowledgeable about the history and the people of Ireland. The tour was great and more than I expected.
Our first time in Dublin and it couldn't have been better! Damian was very professional and informative. There were 4 people in our party and we enjoyed the large spacious and clean van all to ourselves. Damian customized the tour as the day progressed and offered suggestions for additional stops and options. We will definitely look him up when we return to Dublin!
Damian went above and beyond to accommodate our family on this last minute booking. Damian was full of interesting stories and engaged my difficult 12 year old son. Our trip to Glendalough and Guinness Lake was fantastic! I cannot recommend Damian highly enough.
