Cead Mile Failte - One Hundred Thousand Welcomes

My name is Cathy and I am an Irish born and bred tour guide based in our beautiful capital city, Dublin.

I have over 20 years experience in the tourism business and have worked on both sides of industry. I was the world wide travel manager for a large American company originally before spending 8 years working across Europe as a VIP host and guide at 5* star resorts. I have been back home and working full time as a private tour operator and guide again in Dublin for the past 8 years. I love working with groups and individuals of all ages. I am always open to customising tours in Dublin and around Ireland to suit your particular preferences too so please feel free to get in touch.

Cathy and tour were excellent! Book this tour and learn all about Dublin from the most knowledgeable, friendly guide. When we are back in Dublin, we will be looking up Cathy for another tour. This is well worth the fee and time.

Cathy was a wonderful, energetic and informative guide. It was our first visit to Dublin and she made sure we felt like we really saw the city and all of its highlights, in addition to giving us a taste of the local foods.
