Vor der Kirche leicht zu finden. Eine tolle Hausarchitektur mit einem wunderbaren Ausblick auf das Meer bei Flut und Ebbe und auf Omey Island. Die Ausstattung des Hauses dürfte den Komfortanspruch vieler Gäste übertreffen. Dabei fällt die mediale Ausstattung zurück, sie wird aber wegen der Möglichkeiten zu Aktivitäten wie Wandern, Reiten, Radeln, und dem Besuch von pubs manchem nicht fehlen. Man hat viel Platz und kann sich richtig breit machen. Die Landschaft ist durch eine Hochmoorlandschaft und im Osten durch tolle Berge geprägt. Es gibt tatsächlich südseeähnliche Strände, die nur finden muss. Alles hat funktioniert und wir haben uns in einer Woche bestens aufgehoben gefühlt.

The secret life of Ireland’s tour guides

Ireland’s professional storytellers on sharing their love of culture, warring clients and hidden pizzas.

We all love a good story, but only a few can tell them well. A great storyteller is someone who can hold a room, impart new knowledge and bring us to other worlds. Now that we’re waist deep in another summer of staycations, we thought we’d share a few stories from some of the best – the people at the coalface of the tourism industry – tour guides.

Kevin Whelan, has been a tour guide for more than 20 years in his hometown of Nenagh in Co Tipperary, where he gives walking tours and tours of Nenagh Castle. "I didn't have an academic background in history. I never passed an exam in my life, but I had given days to the library just researching – history was a pastime," he says of his career.

“I love teaching people about the history of how the town came to be. I like to bring in interesting characters and different events. As a kid I used to tend to the garden of an old house for the woman who lived there. She’d give me sixpence and I’d get chocolate biscuits. I remember once, her telling me about a man who would come to her at night and stand at the bed and shout at her – then she said to me, ‘Don’t turn around, he’s standing at the end of the bed now’, well I jumped over the bed and out the door, and never went back.” He laughs, “when I tell that story, it breaks up the tour a bit, people enjoy the human stories.”

With more than a few local tales up his sleeve, Whelan finds it easy to captivate his audience. However, there's always the occasional challenge: "Once in Roscrea Castle, a fight started between a husband and wife. The rest of the group was just silent, the two of them were just screaming at each other. What do you do in a situation like that? The man stormed off and the woman just stood there with temper in her face. She just let out a roar at me and told me to keep talking – oh she was horrible. But, you have to be professional," he says.

James Keenan at Portumna Castle

Like Whelan, fellow Tipperary native and local guide James Keenan, who has been working at Portumna Castle for 12 years, has a few tall tales to break the ice, "I try to bring a bit of humour to the tour and to have a bit of a laugh. There's a 15th-century carving of a lady at the Augustinian Priory, she's wearing a horned headdress and there's still a bit of paint still on her – a little bit of blue and a little bit of white – we tell visitors that she was the first camogie player in Lorrha – as those are the Lorrha colours." Keenan worked in the construction sector before his move into tourism, and has never looked back: "I think of myself as a storyteller – there's a satisfaction in knowing that people have enjoyed your company and have left with a bit more knowledge. I always come back happy – I took a national school out recently and we did a little workshop – a few weeks later I received a handmade card from all the children in the school.

“I try to appeal to people’s humanity and give them a sense of colour – what smells came from the kitchen, what they grew in their vegetable gardens, the sports they played, the herbs they used in their cooking. I build these details into the story to give people a sense of what the area was like – I try to bring them back 800 years.”

Sheena Dignam eating an oyster on one of her Galway Food Tours

Another person who is well versed in sharing stories of Ireland's food history and its people is Sheena Dignam; owner of Galway Food Tours. "Growing up, I knew that I was going to run my own business and that it was going to involve food, drink and dealing with the public," Dignam says. She worked for years in the food industry, from restaurants to food start-ups. She even ran her own chocolate shop in Dublin before moving to Galway six years ago where she founded her food tour company. "I really thought it would be cool to bring visitors and locals to meet these passionate food producers", she says. Dignam has a glowing reputation among restaurateurs, chefs and food suppliers; "A big part of the work is the day-to-day dealings with amazing Galway businesses – they welcome us and bring a bit of craic to the tours".

Ellen Quinn Banville during her time as a tour guide in Paris

When asked what stories she keeps for special occasions she jokingly says . . . “I don’t know if I can tell you . . .”, but goes on to say; “there are so many stories to tell – especially in a medieval city like Galway. Did you know it was against the law to sell warm bread in Galway city in the late 1800s?”

Dignam has had her fair share of weird and wonderful experiences. She tells a story about a woman who was “forced” to come on a food tour with her husband. “She just wasn’t interested. What really amused me was - as we were eating our local farmhouse cheeses, air dried lamb, oysters and crab - she would pull out of her small black handbag slices of cheese pizza. It was the smallest handbag. I have no idea where she was keeping all that pizza.”

Ellen Quinn Banville moved to Paris in her early 20s, and by chance ended up as a tour guide. For seven years she gave tours at the Eiffel Tower, the gardens of Versailles and later on, bespoke walking tours around the lesser-known quarters of the French capital. "I realised that I was good at it, and I really enjoyed it. You just get a buzz, it's almost like playing a character – you can just tell when you're winning people over.

With almost two years away from home I began to get very homesick, before it dawned on me – 'how amazing would it be to be a tour guide at home in Ireland?'

“The thing that stuck with me was the psychology of people on holiday – particularly in Paris. There’s often so much riding on that trip. You’d meet people who are on this trip of a lifetime – people have a vivid idea of what Paris should be. I always saw that a big part of my job was, yes, telling the history of Paris, but I always thought it was also showing people how to ‘work’ Paris,” she says. “Sometimes I would bring people to a metro station after their tour, to show them how to buy tickets and how to get through the turnstiles, and make sure they were going in the right direction. But, also I loved sharing an insight into the culture around just sitting and having a coffee, things to make them feel more comfortable and enjoy the experience.”

Tour guide Gemma Howe left Ireland to travel in 2018 and settled in a town in northern Vietnam called Du Gia

Another woman who cut her teeth as an international guide before returning to Ireland is Gemma Howe. Now front-of-house co-ordinator at 14 Henrietta Street museum in Dublin, Howe left Ireland to travel in 2018 and settled in a town in northern Vietnam called Du Gia. "I worked in the hostel, helping the owner as he had very little English. As the weeks went by and I got to know the area, I offered a guiding service to backpackers to hidden gems and waterfalls I found on my days off. With almost two years away from home I began to get very homesick, before it dawned on me – 'how amazing would it be to be a tour guide at home in Ireland?'"

A seasoned tour guide today, Howe shares the biggest challenges of touring the country with foreign visitors: “The weather! Trying to cheer up a group of 40 passengers who have travelled all the way to Ireland to see the Cliffs of Moher and they see nothing but fog! I used up all my terrible jokes on those days,” she says.

In 2020, Howe took on a role as tour guide at Henrietta Street, a former tenement building – now a museum – in Dublin’s city centre. “I love focusing on the stories of ordinary people who, in my eyes, did extraordinary things,” she says. “I was drawn to this building as my family on my mother’s side grew up in a similar tenement in Gardiner Street in Dublin before the big exodus of people from the city to the suburbs. My grandmother had a stall at Moore Street. Growing up in the 1990s my mother sent me to help out at the stall during the summer months. I just sat with my grandmother asking so many questions about what life was like for her and for her mother – who lived in the tenements. Every time I walk through Henrietta Street today my grandmother’s stories are brought to life.”

Seán Buckley at Bryce House on Garnish island

From the tenements of Dublin, to the coast of west Cork – Seán Buckley is delighted to be back giving tours of Bryce House on Garnish Island – "It's a piece of paradise. You come from the rugged landscape here in west Cork and you go out into these beautiful gardens with its own microclimate. I have a lovely commute to work, a 10-minute boat trip each morning, I pass all these seals greeting me everyday, the wildlife, the birds and swans . . . I'd work here 12 months of the year if I could," he says.

Like so many working in the tourism industry, Buckley has had to adapt to a Covid world. “Last year, we weren’t able to give tours at all due to Covid, as the house wasn’t open. But this year, we are delighted to be back there – we were a bit homesick.”

Great Slave Lake Tours

Shawn Buckley

(867) 875-8077

I’m Shawn Buckley. I’m a third generation fisherman and the owner and operator of Great Slave Lake Tours. I’ve been fishing on all of Great Slave Lake for 38 years. It’s my home and my livelihood.  I’ve been guiding sport fishers and running boat tours in the summer and teaching tourists and lots of school kids about ice fishing in the winter for nearly 10 years. I started out small and grew with the experience and the pleasure of showing visitors and locals what my life looks like and what sustainable fishery is all about. I also cater to larger groups, including fish fries or scenic boat cruises on the waterways around Hay River. Once in a while I get hired by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, glaciologists or research institutes to do some fieldwork. In between the peak tourist seasons I still fish commercially.​​​​

I cherish and respect the lake and I’d love to share that with you. Whether you’re a sport fisher and you’re excited about our northern pike, trout, pickerel, whitefish and ling cod, or an avid photographer with a passion for wilderness and unique lifestyle, or you’re just out for a pleasant dinner cruise around the harbour area of Hay River – we will try to accommodate you and plan your trip with you. We cook homemade meals and fry fresh fish like you’ve never eaten before. We are knowledgeable about wild indigenous plants and local history. And we can refer you to other local tour operators who offer a variety of services and activities. Come and visit the north and see for yourselves what makes living up here so special.​​​​

Your Stories: From cabin crew to AAAs winner, Sean Buckley reflects on his career in travel

• Share on WhatsApp
• Share by email

Barrhead Travel’s Northwich manager talks to Andrew McQuarrie about his career to date, which includes triumphing at the Agent Achievement Awards

Q. What’s your most memorable moment in travel? A. Winning the Leisure Manager of the Year award at the AAAs this year . After everything we’ve gone through, with Thomas Cook collapsing , Covid and taking a long time to open our store and all the hard work that went into it, to get that AAAs recognition for myself and the team was a really proud moment. I was up against some highly talented managers from across the UK.

I joined Thomas Cook in Altrincham as assistant manager and the cluster manager role became available, so I did the central Cheshire cluster just before it collapsed

Q. Can you tell us about your career to date? A. I went to college to study travel and tourism, but after 9/11 lots of people left the course and it closed down, so I got a job with Thomas Cook as a trainee travel consultant in the Northwich store. That was when I was 16. I did two years there and progressed to assistant manager of the Wilmslow store. After that, I went to the airline as cabin crew for 10 years, working my way up to cabin manager, before going back into retail. I joined Thomas Cook in Altrincham as assistant manager and the cluster manager role became available, so I did the central Cheshire cluster just before it collapsed. Then I came to Barrhead, where I’ve been for about four years.

We’ve taken on three more staff to get us through peaks so there are 10 of us now, which is pretty big considering we’ve only been open for 18 months

Q. How’s the Northwich store performing? A. It’s really busy. We’ve only been open since April 2022, so we’re the newest Barrhead branch in England, but we’re the busiest. We’re 30% up on last year, which was a good year for us. We’ve taken on three more staff to get us through peaks so there are 10 of us now, which is pretty big considering we’ve only been open for 18 months.

Q. How has recruitment been? A. We’ve been lucky on this occasion, but recruitment is a struggle. People who left travel during Covid are hesitant to get back into it. They’ve settled into the jobs they moved to during the pandemic.

We’re also putting together a lot of long-haul tailor-made itineraries for customers who want something special. Touring and adventure is growing, too, and we’re doing a lot of family holidays

Q. What are your biggest sellers in store? A. Cruise is a huge part of our business at the moment. We’re booking a lot of Asia and Australasia sailings with Celebrity Cruises. We’re also putting together a lot of long-haul tailor-made itineraries for customers who want something special. Touring and adventure is growing, too, and we’re doing a lot of family holidays.

Q. Have you seen any booking trends recently? A. There have been a lot of multigenerational families travelling on special trips. They’re doing more long-haul or bucket-list destinations. And more people are booking two holidays – they’re booking one big holiday and then a city break. So even though there’s a cost-of-living crisis, they’re not stopping booking holidays – it’s just getting busier and busier.

Looking at what people will be booking next year, there are going to be even more bucket-list trips so we need to hone in on that and get US experts in store as well as touring and adventure ones

Q. What are your plans for 2024? A. I would like to grow the business by 30% again, so we’re getting all the peaks campaigns ready. In January and February, we’re hoping we’ll be extremely busy. Looking at what people will be booking next year, there are going to be even more bucket-list trips so we need to hone in on that and get US experts in store as well as touring and adventure ones.

Q. What was it like joining Barrhead after so long with Thomas Cook? A. It was quite scary because I’ve always known Thomas Cook and its ways of working, so coming to an independent felt like starting from scratch, but it was definitely the best move. The flexibility here is brilliant and Barrhead really does look after its people.

It was quite scary because I’ve always known Thomas Cook and its ways of working, so coming to an independent felt like starting from scratch, but it was definitely the best move

Q. What are you doing for your 40th next year? A. We’re going to the Maldives for two weeks – it’s always been on my bucket list. I can sit on the beach and relax for two weeks, but my other half likes to be active so it’s never been a destination he wanted to go to, but with it being a special occasion he’s given in! We’ll be staying on Cocogiri Island Resort, a small boutique island with only 40 rooms and we’ve got a water bungalow. I’m looking forward to the beaches and snorkelling. We’ll also be going to Disneyland Paris right after my birthday.

What was it like being cabin crew and how has it helped you as a travel agent?

Being cabin crew was brilliant and a completely different way of life. You could be doing a few trips to Palma in a week but then last-minute it could get changed and you could be going to Canada or the Caribbean and spending a week there. When you’ve got time off, you can do anything you want so you can see all the sights. It’s a really good way to travel the world. You meet so many types of people on board and you hardly ever work with the same person as there’s so many of you.

My time as cabin crew has helped me massively since then. As crew, I spent quite a lot of time in Canada because we did a lot of Canadian Affair flights. It’s a huge country and there are lots of different itineraries you can put together, so it’s helped me loads as a travel agent because we’re a Canada specialist. I would say about 20%-25% of our business is Canada. At Thomas Cook Northwich we didn’t really get Canada enquiries, but after coming to Barrhead and advertising ourselves as a specialist, we do get a lot more and we get different clientele in.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Ultra Tune mogul Sean Buckley back in court, accused of bugging his ex-partner’s home

The founder of an automotive repairs behemoth has faced court again amid extraordinary allegations he bugged his ex-partner’s home.

A multi-millionaire businessman who allegedly hired a man to spy on his model ex-girlfriend by installing listening devices in her apartment has appeared in court.

Ultra Tune mogul Sean Buckley, who faces a dozen charges relating to allegations of stalking his former partner, as well as installing and monitoring listening devices in her apartment, appeared via video link in Melbourne Magistrates Court on Tuesday.

Mr Buckley appeared alongside co-accused Anthony Swords and Wade D’Andrea.

Both men were allegedly hired by Mr Buckley to keep surveillance on his ex-girlfriend Jennifer Cruz Cole, the court was told.

Court documents state Mr Swords is charged with various offences including stalking, amid allegations he installed a hidden camera in the hallway outside Mr Cole’s home.

Mr D’Andrea is also facing stalking charges.

Prosecutors sought a five-week adjournment while waiting for evidence, including police-worn body-cam vision and statements from officers.

“Why haven’t these been provided (to the court) before?” magistrate Stephen Ballek asked.

“There needs to be some clarification on what will be relied upon by prosecution when putting together their case.

“How’d you come up with the magic five-week adjournment period? I’m concerned we adjourn it for five weeks and you still won’t have been provided with the documents.”

The court was earlier told that Mr Buckley’s ex-partner Ms Cole walked in on Mr D’Andrea, who was attempting to retrieve listening devices installed in her home.

“Mr D’Andrea was caught red-handed with them,” prosecutor JJ Jassar told the court.

The alleged recordings are at the centre of the case against the high-flying Australian entrepreneur, who founded the Ultra Tune empire in the late 1970s.

Mr Buckley is expected to fight the various accusations, including that he allegedly threatened to kill Ms Cole while at Crown Casino, where the couple were staying on January 18 2020.

Ms Cole, a former Ultra Tune “rubber girl” who appeared in racy ads for the company, shares a child with the multi-millionaire.

While recordings connected to the charges have already been provided, Mr Buckley’s lawyer Remy Van der Weil earlier told the court that additional recordings were needed to form a defence against claims Ms Cole was living in fear.

Prosecutors argued the additional recordings were not relevant to the charges and enough audio material had been provided.

All parties were successful in applying for an adjournment on Tuesday and the matter will return to court on March 29.
