Based in Dublin
Dublin, Wicklow

Hello!! I’m Lisa, For years I’ve hiked the Dublin and Wicklow mountains, wandered through the warren of Dublin streets or strolled through the various parks and places of interest that are hidden in plain sight around the city. I often see people reading maps, or following apps on their phone and think wouldn’t it be easier if I could just show them around..

Nationwide — based in Cork & Dublin

I am the Tour Operations & Transport Manager at Cronin’s Coaches, a core division of the Cronin Travel Group. The group brings together Specialized Travel Services (STS), Select Hotels & Experiences, Cronin’s Coaches, and Cork City Tours to deliver fully integrated travel solutions across Ireland and the United Kingdom. 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. I can support clients directly with tailored transport solutions, including driver-guide services, luxury vehicles, and full coach touring programmes. 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. Despite my operational focus, I remain closely connected to on-the-ground delivery, working alongside drivers and guides to ensure each programme runs smoothly and reflects the standards expected by both partners and guests. My knowledge of regional touring across Ireland and the UK, combined with strong industry relationships and a structured operational approach, ensures that every journey is delivered with clarity, efficiency, and attention to detail.
