About Tour Guide Diana M.
Hello and Welcome!
I’m Diana, and alongside my loved ones, my greatest passion in life is traveling, meeting new people, and sharing the beauty of the world through art and culture.
My private guided day tours offer a truly unique and immersive experience—a chance to explore Ireland in a way that few travelers do. These tours are designed to be engaging and enriching, yet never overwhelming, allowing you to connect with the landscape, history, and culture at a comfortable pace. Many of my tours even include a picnic in a scenic, atmospheric spot to enhance the experience.
As your guide, I aim to open the door to Ireland’s untouched beauty, from dramatic cliffs to enchanted forests, revealing hidden details that might otherwise go unnoticed. Whether you’re interested in a hike through the hills or horseback riding through breathtaking landscapes, I’m here to make it seamless and stress-free.
I’ll take care of all the planning and driving (yes, on the left side of the road!), so your only task is to relax, take in the sights, and enjoy the fascinating stories along the way.
Ireland has a way of capturing hearts, and I’d be delighted to be your guide and local expert on this unforgettable journey.
Hope to see you soon on one of my tours, exploring the heart and soul of this beautiful country!
