About Annette
Achill is home - and my family has called the island home for over 700 years. As the local Aíre for the O’Malley Clan Association and an indirect descendant of Grace O’Malley, the Pirate Queen, I have so much love for the island’s history, stories and people.
I’ll take you beyond the usual tourist trail to discover Achill’s spectacular beaches, viewpoints, hidden corners and fascinating local history…the best coffee and places you might otherwise drive straight past.
Think of it as a whistle-stop tour with a friend who knows the island from the inside. Come and see Achill through local eyes. 💚

I am a storyteller and private guide living in the west of Ireland all my life. After years working in the private sector I chose to create my own business to sustain and nurture Irish storytelling and offer immersive private tours of Ireland. The tours include visits to hidden gems and a personalised experience. Based on your interests and timings, I craft the most practical experience to ensure you get the most from your time with me. When I am not touring or performing storytelling, my time is spent researching and expanding my understanding of the stories from across Ireland. The stories I tell suit all ages as the topics include history, heirtage, folklore, mythology, urban myth, true crime, fantasy, literary tours, ghost tours etc. The focus is on you, and making sure you get not only excellent value for money but an unforgettable experience to share with your loved ones.
