Meet Cliff & Louise

We're Cliff and Louise. We started Walking Holiday Ireland because we believe the best way to experience Ireland is on foot. Every year, we verify all our routes with local experts and guides, and we personally walk at least two routes ourselves. When you book with us, you're not booking with a corporation — you're planning your trip with people who genuinely love these trails.

Your Irish Walking Tour Questions Answered

What if I get lost?

We provide detailed route notes and GPS files on your phone. Our well-marked routes are tested multiple times, and you can call us anytime for support.

How does luggage transfer work?

Leave your main luggage at your B&B each morning — we collect and deliver it to your next stop. You walk with just a daypack.

Can I walk solo?

Absolutely! Many walkers travel solo. Walk at your own pace and meet fellow walkers and locals at the B&Bs each evening.

What's the weather like?

Changeable — sunshine, showers, and rainbows all in one day! We recommend layers and waterproof gear. Check our blog for packing tips.

What accommodation do you use?

Family-run B&Bs personally selected and visited by us. Comfortable, warm, and welcoming with hearty Irish breakfasts.

How far in advance should I book?

8–12 weeks for peak season (May–September). Off-season tours can be booked with less notice. Earlier booking means better B&B choice.
