About Judith

I was born in Annascaul on the Dingle peninsula on a dairy farm , one of 8 children. I grew up on the Dingle Peninsula then moved between the cities of Limerick, Dublin and Cork for work after College. ( I have an honours degree in Economics and Sociology from UCC). I have worked in Community development , I.T. , Accounting over my career. I then moved home to Dingle and I now have 11 years of experience as a driver guide. I have crewed and guided on the Blasket island ferry and driven private Golf and Heritage tours nationally on multiday tours. My favorite parts of the job is showing our quirky neolithic monuments that are scattered everywhere in the country to visitors.....showing them how to see them in the landscape and understand what are they seeing as they drive along. Also bringing families to their last known address / townland before their families emigrated ( usually in the 19th C ) to North America. We often connect with living relatives due to speaking to locals and good fortune ☘️🍀 I also do day tours from Killarney and Dingle...

Mark is a born-and-bred Irish local who fell in love with Howth and its wild coastal beauty — from dramatic cliff paths to hidden corners most visitors never find. What started as a passion for exploring and storytelling turned into Hidden Howth Experiences — a collection of award-winning tours blending breathtaking scenery, rich local history, great food and drink, and plenty of laughs along the way. Joined by his iconic sidekick Missy the dog, Mark creates experiences that feel less like a formal tour and more like a day out with friends. Guests get the real Howth: local stories, secret viewpoints, colourful characters, and that warm Irish welcome that keeps people coming back again and again. If you’re looking for a fun, relaxed adventure with a local who genuinely loves what he does — you’ve just found it.
