Ireland, at your pace.
Private tours of the Wild Atlantic Way, airport meet-and-greet transfers and thoughtful trip planning — with a personal welcome from Mike Stritch, a badged national tour guide.
A lifetime of Irish hospitality, on the road with you.
Mike Stritch grew up in his parents' pub and later ran it himself — hospitality has been the thread running through his whole working life. He went on to complete a national tour guide course and chauffeur licence examinations, and today works as a badged national tour guide.
That background shapes everything: a genuine welcome, an easy pace, and a quiet attention to the details that make a trip feel effortless.

Touring that follows your interests, not a fixed route.
The Wild Atlantic Way is one of the world's great coastal drives — but there's no single way to see it. Mike's touring reflects your interests and preferred pace, whether that means long scenic days, quiet villages, dramatic headlands or a slower rhythm with time to linger.
Think of these as inspiration rather than a fixed itinerary: the route, the stops and the timing come together once Mike understands what you'd love most.
