Plan Your Irish Trip With A Local & Go From Stressed to Excited in One Call
Because Locals Know Best
Planning a trip to Ireland should be exciting.
Instead, it often feels like this:
- 47 browser tabs open
- 12 different itineraries saved
- Everyone online saying something different
- “You HAVE to see this” … “Skip that” … “Don’t miss this”
- More questions than answers
It’s too much noise.
The Simple Solution
- One hour with an Irish local.
- We plan your entire trip.
- We answer every Ireland question you have.
- You go from stressed to excited.
Flat €99. No packages to sell. Just honest local advice.
The call usually pays for itself with the advice I'll give you.
A Week… or a Lifetime of Knowledge?
When researching your Irish plans, ask yourself: How long has the person giving you advice actually spent in Ireland?
Are you trying to plan a once-in-a-lifetime trip based on blog posts written by people who were here for five days, five years ago.
Or with a foreign travel agent who “specialize” in Ireland...and Hawaii...and Disney.
And those people in the Irish Facebook groups mean well, but they're just telling you about their own vacation.
They don't know Ireland like a local does.
I’m a Dubliner and a tour guide. I’ve spent a lifetime exploring every corner of this country. Not just the famous places, but the back roads and vintage small towns most visitors don’t even know about.
I know:
- What’s genuinely worth your time (and what’s a tourist trap)
- What looks “close” on Google Maps but actually takes three hours
- How to see the best of Ireland without the burnout
During our call, I can show you real photos I’ve personally taken (over 5,000 of them), so you can see exactly what Ireland looks like.
You get a lifetime of local knowledge in an hour.
The Trip Planning Call
In our call, we’ll talk through:
- Your interests
- Your travel style
- Your must-sees
But it’s not just itinerary planning.
This is your chance to ask anything about Ireland.
- What is driving really like?
- Do you need cash?
- What should you pack?
- How does tipping work?
No question is too small. If it’s on your mind, we’ll cover it.
By the end of the call, you’ll have a realistic and enjoyable itinerary that makes sense with built-in flexibility, so you’re not locked into a rigid schedule.
Ireland is a relaxed country. Your trip should be too.
How It Works
- Email me with your trip dates and some background details. The more context, the better. Included some days and times when you are available for a call.
- Within 24 hours, I’ll confirm our meeting time and send a Google Meet link.
- We spend a productive (and enjoyable) hour planning your trip.
- Everything will be summarized on a Google Doc, so you’re not relying on memory or messy notes. I’ll also include Google Maps routes you can use while you’re here.
