About Mark
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.

A Thomastown native with a gift for storytelling and a great sense of humor! I've been entertaining visitors with tales of Kilkenny's medieval past for over 20 years. Whether it's the legends of the castles or the craic in the local pubs, I'll make sure your tour is as fun as it is informative.
