Welcome to my Walking and Hiking Tours (Established by Joyce Byrne in 1994). This is the Ireland of my dreams and, I hope, yours. On your hiking/ walking journey through Ireland you will encounter wildflowers in abundance, amazing scenery, and quiet sheltered trails as well as open, empty wilderness. There are endless photographic opportunities with excellent light quality and unique cloud formations. There are birds for the watching, rest stops for the taking and fine meals at the end of your perfect summer days.
I can promise you: we will not be part of any tourist trail, or the "sheep following" mentality. You will enjoy the wide, sweeping expanses of Ireland's beaches, her lonely mountain trails, her windswept hills, her pretty, colorful villages, the soulful air of her traditional music and the warm, smiling welcome of her people.
My aim has always been to offer quality not quantity, so my hiking / walking tour company remains small but perfectly formed! I hope we meet this year, but if not, maybe one day in the future.

I had such a wonderful time. Each day included such amazing surprises. I had no idea of the varied landscapes of southern France...other than the Rhone River,
... view more medieval castles and acres of vineyards. Linda could not have been more welcoming, delightful and fun. And I have to say, she and Chris work so hard to please their guests. I didn't realize we would have a tour guide assigned to us for the duration, and Pierre was delightful, interesting and eager to see that all were cared for. The food prepared by our hosts was out of this world PLUS, I could go out and pick figs from the tree by the pool each day to include in our 'short picnic' lunches. It was very difficult to leave. Nonetheless, I have the most wonderful stories to regale family and friends with, and my own never-forget memories. (Wine and Walking in Provence, September 2011). |

My trip to "Undiscovered Ireland" was absolutely wonderful. I have so many happy memories. The guesthouses, the meals, the companionship and most

I wanted to send an extra thank you for the wonderful week you provided for us. You took a hodge-podge of travelers and made us into a congenial family for the
... view more week through your kind and generous attention. Whether we were walking or enjoying the evening’s repast of too much food and a Guinness or two, you always took the time to make us each feel welcome and a very important person. You are a great ‘mum’! The trip was perfect. You and Christopher were wonderful guides and I cannot imagine traveling any other way in the future. So…once again – Thank you, Thank you, Thank you on into infinity and back. |
