Gerry Kelly
I asked an old friend if I should switch from community work into tour guiding......."great idea" he said; you'll get paid to talk. My motto is "Where facts and fun meet". My aim is always that clients will learn some new & interesting facts about our country, AND enjoy themselves along the way. Before taking up guiding i worked in Community and Youth work for 15 years, and this was great preparation for treating everyone as an individual, and that everyone had a story to tell. I enjoy working with all sorts of groups and individuals, and I would list my own special interests as sports, current affairs and utterly useless trivial information. Whether it's a half day stroll around Dublin city centre or a full tour of the Emerald Isle I always aim to inform and entertain, and help provide lots of good and happy memories. In case you are wondering.......I do not have a social media presence. Without being too preachy, i kinda think it's causing the collapse of western civilisation as we know it. That and old dogs & new tricks etc.

Jason Ó Fionnáin
I’m Jason Ó Fionnáin, an Irish filmmaker, professional photographer, storyteller, creative educator and qualified TEFL teacher based near Mullingar in Ireland’s Ancient East. I create private, personalised experiences that bring Ireland’s landscape, mythology, archaeology and living culture to life. My tours are relaxed, immersive and designed around each guest’s interests. Rather than simply visiting landmarks, we explore the stories, ancient beliefs, local traditions and hidden details connected to each place. Experiences can include heritage storytelling, photography guidance, forest walks, creative activities and conversational English practice for international visitors. I specialise in small groups, families, students and travellers seeking an authentic connection with Ireland beyond the usual tourist routes. From 5,000-year-old passage tombs and medieval monasteries to sacred hills, lakes, castles and quiet countryside, every experience is shaped with care, local knowledge and a genuine Irish welcome.

Now resident in Galway, I saw the opportunity for an exciting career change and I retrained as a Tourist Guide.
