Most tours in Galway walk you around for an hour and read you dates off a wall. That’s not what this is. My name is Ultan. I’m from Mayo, I’ve lived in Galway for six years, and I left a full-time job to do this because I’m a people person and this is what I love. Simple as that. Stroll to the Stout is built around one idea, the best way to understand a place is to do what the locals do. Pour a pint. Hear some trad. Watch the GAA. Talk to someone who actually lives here. The pint you pour yourself. The Polaroid you take home. The GAA. None of it is manufactured for tourists. It’s just Galway. Fáilte Ireland accredited, ITOA approved, and the only operator on the west coast of Ireland doing this. No headsets. No scripts. No passive afternoons.

Nationwide — based in Kerry

I was born in a small village near the foot of Mount Brandon, and spoke only Irish until I was 12. From an early age, Irish folklore, traditions and customs captivated me, and my love of all things Irish blossomed. It is a love that remains with me to this day. I grew up in the heart of the Dingle Peninsula surrounded by breathtaking scenery, the Blasket Islands, Skellig Michael, Mount Brandon and the Three Sisters, and I dreamed of being able, one day, to share this incredible place with visitors from all over the world. My dream was realised when I qualified as a Fáilte Ireland Approved Tour Guide. To date, I have taken people from all over the world on magical journeys and experiences across the entire island of Ireland.

I work closely with a wide portfolio of international partners including CIE Tours, Gate 1 Travel, Collette, Brendan Vacations, Insight Vacations, Trafalgar, Kleemann Tours, and Specialized Travel Services, along with a broad network of bespoke tour operators and travel agencies worldwide. My role centres on the planning, coordination, and delivery of transport and touring programmes at scale, ensuring consistency, compliance, and a high standard of service across every itinerary. My background is rooted in bespoke touring and hands-on delivery, and I take a practical, detail-driven approach to operations. My experience spans private driver-guided journeys, multi-vehicle coach programmes, and complex touring logistics across Ireland and the UK, allowing me to bridge the gap between planning and execution with confidence.

Working alongside my team within Cronin Travel Group, we also deliver complete itinerary packages, combining transport, accommodation, and curated experiences into a seamless end-to-end product.
