About Ian
As an experienced tour guide with Galway Civic Trust, I have a deep passion for sharing the rich history and natural beauty of Galway and the West of Ireland. I lead engaging and informative tours that highlight medieval Galway, the unique Claddagh village, the Waterways of Galway and the Famine of Galway. As a Regional and National Tour Guide, my tours provide visitors with a broader understanding of our culture, heritage and appreciation of Connemara, the Burren and the Wild Atlantic Way. Being a true nature enthusiast, I offer a wealth of knowledge about the local flora, fauna and wildlife conservation issues. My immersive tours offer something truly special for the visitor.

I have been collecting oral history and anecdotes from Cape Clear Island for the past 40 years and can provide an interesting walking tour ( or bus/car tour for smaller groups) anywhere on the Island. I like responding to questions as they usually bring up interesting stories from our rich Island history which also has various deep connections with far flung parts of the Globe. I am an O'Drisceoil, sharing the main Island surname from the ancient O'Driscoll Clan which ruled these parts for 600 years or so. I am deeply involved in INIS, Cape Clear Island & Fastnet Heritage Center. I am a regular guide with visiting bus tours and also play Irish traditional music regularly with the locals. I am a fluent daily Irish speaker, with a good knowledge of the more famous publications from the Island and regularly publish heritage themed articles on local websites and social media. I am a competent Spanish Speaker and not far off in French. My other local interests include small farming, tree planting, kayaking and supervision of the Island walking trails. I am also a founder of the local Island Distillery and can provide gin tastings for groups of 10 +. These involved the 3 different local gins, Classic, Aged and Lavender.
