About Tour Guide Dermot L.
I've lived in Dublin city centre and its suburbs all my life, and the history of Dublin along with its stories continues to surprise me, even to someone who lives here.
Since I've started giving guided tours I've found it to be a lot of fun, and very rewarding to see visitors really engage with the real Dublin City. These are the streets of countless struggles for freedom, laughter, pain, joy, as well as Bono, James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, Sinead O'Connor and Arthur Guinness. . . I get distracted with stories, so you might have to remind me from time to time!, and I like to make sure that anyone who books onto my tours have the best of times!
As a long time musician, who's spent a lot of time with other Irish musicians, I've also got no shortage of insights into the heart of Irish music and folklore - it's a lovely world to occupy.
I also have a very special relationship with Dublin's Ha'Penny Bridge, remind me to tell you about this, you won't find the answer on Google!
Dublin is an old city, but it's not a museum, it's also a brand new city - this is the same throughout all of Ireland - and I enjoy showing visitors how these worlds live side by side, so you can have fun while enjoying the city at the same time!
$590/ per group

The best of Wicklow, with a local, by limousine. A full day out!
This is a driven day tour of the 'Garden of Ireland' as County Wicklow is known. We will visit Powerscourt Gardens, Wicklow National Park and Glendalough. A hike could be included in the day if requested - or a sheep dog demo. (admissions/demos are extra). I am the eighth generation of an upland farm, with sheep and cattle, so know the area very well, and am proud to show it to guests.
