Welcome to Ireland! I am located in the spectacular West Clare peninsula in Ireland, which is a hidden gem that was awarded European Destination of Excellence (EDEN) in 2010 & voted Irish Times Best Place to Holiday in Ireland. I am positioned in the middle of Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way, right where the Shannon river meets the Atlantic Ocean, and am close Shannon airport. I come from an Irish rural background, traditional to it's roots, my upbringing was filled with local stories, history and culture. I love to share this part of my history with all my tour groups, and to provide a great understanding of the essence of beautiful Ireland. I provide scenic tours and transportation services along the Wild Atlantic Way and all along the west coast of Ireland. I am excited to take you on a pre-booked scenic day trip and show you this truly magical place. My small and personal tours are ideal for anybody who would like an exceptional day out. I take you to, and collect you from all the local attractions, such as the Loop Head light house, walking tours, dolphin and whale-watching trips, home baking classes, farm tours, golfing activities, campsites and cycling tours or golf tours.

Amazing trip and experience with Martina. She gave us the most delightful day. We had a planned itinerary and then changed and add this and that along the way to ensure we really had the best experience. She checked with all the passengers along the way to ensure they too were getting out of the tour what they wanted. Easy to chat, laugh and spend the day together.

My trip/tour from Galway to Killarney with Martina was unforgettable. Martina is knowledgeable and passionate about Irish history and culture, and shares entertaining stories that make one smile, laugh, and ponder.

Martina is great! She has an encyclopedic knowledge of Irish history, culture and geography, and the perfect personality for a guide. Our family (husband, wife, two teenaged children) all really enjoyed meeting her. She planned a very interesting itinerary for us, and also gave us some great recommendations for restaurants and things to do in Killarney. We absolutely recommend her, book her if you can!

Martina was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable in all things Ireland. She made great suggestions for stops along our route which we were very happy we followed. We enjoyed Bunratty castle and lunch in Adair. She waited as we checked into our hotel in Killarney and drove us back to the National Park.
