Exclusive private tours of Ireland

Conor gave us an excellent tour of the Blackwater Valley. Conor is local and very knowledgeable. He does his homework. And he's a safe and "on schedule" driver.

We had 2 lovely days doing tours with Connor. He went above and beyond taking care of us! We saw 3 castles in one day, Cahir, Rock of Cashel and Blarney! Super! Then on our second day, Connor drove us from Cork to Galway, stopping at Bunratty Castle and farm, and the Cliffs of Moher. Then, obviously remembering that we love the ancient standing stones, Connor surprised us with a side trip to Poulnabrone, a portal tomb that is over 5,000 years old. We highly recommend this private car service, we were in excellent hands!

What an unforgettable day! Connor, our guide was wonderful!, friendly, funny, and genuinely passionate about his beautiful country. We were a group of 20 from Mexico and he made the entire experience fun and memorable from beginning to end for all of us. Thank you for such a wonderful day. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommended!

Conor was such an exceptional driver and guide on my first visit to Cork that I unhesitatingly hired him when I returned this past week. I asked him to drive us between Shannon airport and our hotel in Cork ( upon arrival and departure) and for a full day of touring family heritage sites. As was my experience last year, Conor once again exceeded all of my expectations and ensured that we ticked every box on our vacation itinerary/wish list! He also added suggestions and helped us to follow genealogy leads. The trip certainly wouldn't have been nearly as wonderful without his historical and genealogical expertise, not to mention his driving and ability to get us where we wanted to be, on our desired schedule. I cannot possibly recommend him enough for your visit to Ireland!

Conor was a great driver and tour guide for my mother and I from Cork around County Kerry. He took care wonderful care of my elderly mother and made great choices for her comfort and physical abilities. He also made sure that I had to opportunity to see some things while he entertained my mom. His luxury was super comfort. His extensive knowledge was very much appreciated as a librarian that loves to hear the details behind places and people in history. He gave us a wonderful day of beauty and history of the area.

We got to know Conor last year, when he drove us from Dublin to Galway and back. He was very polite and friendly, considerate of our quirky wishes to find Little Free Libraries along the way, knew Irish history and was full on anecdotes about places and buildings we drove by. He knew every bird we saw along the way. So, when we were taking a cruise this year and had a stop in Cobh with seven hours to kill, we of course contacted him again beforehand and had a much better day than the rest of the cruise ship did. Conor even remembered from last year that we would have wished to visit a Donkey Sanctuary and now one was closeby. We adopted two donkeys for a year in Liscarroll! We visited the graveyard where people from M/S Lucitania were buried, had a stroll around Cork and visited the Gaol and Elisabeth Fort. Conor even knew where to get the best photos of Cobh by lifting our cameras over a brick wall we couldn’t see over - and the photos were excellent! A full day with a variety of places of interest - in a good company! Thanks again!

We hired Conor to drive and guide us for our first five days on our first visit to Ireland. We could not have made a better decision! Conor was WONDERFUL. He accommodated our needs and wishes in every way possible, and was unfazed by our moments of indecision and our changes of plans. His driving, in his very comfortable Mercedes sedan, always felt safe and he was a patient and courteous driver. Not only were we grateful for his driving skill, but we truly enjoyed his company and all of the knowledge he shared with us about the places he took us to see as well as about Irish history and culture. We recommend Conor without hesitation for anyone else seeking a reliable driver for their exploration of SW Ireland. Thank you Conor, you are a treasure!

Our day with Conor was a highlight of our trip. He is experienced, well trained and very knowledgeable about the area and its history. We were able to see and do a lot in a short amount of time, and Conor is so personable, easy to talk to and fun it felt like we spent the day with an old friend.

Conor was an amazing guide! He took the time to not just show us things but really knew the history. We were on a cruise and did a number of excursions. Although not associated with the ship his was the one we enjoyed the most. He even showed us the 911 memorial site which was fascinating. My wife and I would highly recommend using Conor when you are visiting the Cork area.
