Ireland Travel Consultation

Plan Your Perfect Ireland Trip with Expert Local Advice

Planning a trip to Ireland should be exciting, not overwhelming. With hundreds of attractions, countless accommodation options, scenic driving routes, and hidden gems to choose from, many visitors find it difficult to know where to begin. That's where we can help.

Meet Your Ireland Travel Expert

Hi, I'm Carmel.

As co-owner of Emerald Irish Tours, I've spent years helping visitors from around the world experience the very best of Ireland. Born and raised in County Clare, I know this part of Ireland inside out—from the dramatic Cliffs and beautiful beaches of Kilkee to the charming villages of Doonbeg, Kilbaha and Carrigaholt, as well as many of the hidden places that most visitors never discover.

I've travelled extensively throughout Ireland, working with families, couples, golfers, ancestry travellers, and first-time visitors to create personalised itineraries that combine Ireland's iconic attractions with authentic local experiences.

I understand that every traveller is different. Some want to visit Ireland's famous landmarks, while others are looking for quiet coastal roads, traditional villages, local food, and the hidden gems that make a journey truly memorable.

My goal is simple: to help you create an Ireland trip that is enjoyable, realistic, and tailored to your interests, so you can experience the very best of Ireland with confidence.
