I am Cornelius, a tour guide and driver based here in Killarney on the Ring of Kerry, Ireland. I´ve got quite a bit of experience under my belt - I started out doing some part-time local tour work here in Killarney a number of years ago. My background is actually in sales, I used to work in commercial air conditioning and then moved into radio, but I really enjoyed the tour work and the interaction with visitors, so I decided to take it more seriously, becoming a full time driver guide. I completed the national tour guide programme, this is a QQI level 6 course which allows me to lead tours all across Ireland, not just the Killarney area. I am fully licensed and insured, having an SPSV licence issued by the National Transport Authority, I also have a full category D and D1 for driving larger vehicles, I am also a member of the ITGA Independent Tour Guides Association. The top tours I offer are the Ring of Kerry, the Dingle Peninsula, and the Cliffs of Moher along the Wild Atlantic Way. I find a lot of travellers are interested in those iconic Irish destinations, however I am very happy to tailor tours to meet every individual requirement and each tour is designed to encompass as much of the rich heritage that you will experience including the history, music, scenery and food. These days, I got my own luxury 7-passenger vehicle complete with leather seating, multi-zone air conditioning and free Wi-Fi which gives me more flexibility to offer personalized tours for smaller groups. I love being able to share my local knowledge and insider tips with visitors. Whether it takes the best spots for photos, hidden gems off the beaten path, or insights into the history and culture, I´m always happy to provide that personal touch.

The Cliffs of Moher is one of the top visitor attractions in Ireland, travel the Wild Atlantic Way and finish up in Galway or you can do the tour in reverse starting in Galway and finishing in Killarney. I start as always with a bonus stop at Aghadoe Overlook, an area just outside Killarney with magnificent views. We move on towards Tarbert where we get the ferry across the River Shannon, the largest river in England, Scotland, Ireland or Wales. We travel along the coast on The Wild Atlantic Way passing through Kilkee, Doonbeg, Quilty Spanish Point, Lehinch before passing through Liscannor and arriving at The Cliffs of Moher where we have a light snack. We have ample time here to stroll along the pathway, take photographs and learn more about the Cliffs at the visitor centre. We leave the cliffs and pass through Doolin where we stop for Lunch. Passing Ballyvaughan and Kinvara, Oranmore before we visit the beautiful city of Galway where Columbus once visited.
