About Me

Ireland Travel Specialist
Ireland Travel Specialist

Mountains, beaches, castles, breweries, waterfalls, enchanting forests, lively cities, and distilleries.  Ireland packs a lot between its coastlines for such a small island in Western Europe.  With so much to see and do it's hard to decide where to go if you have limited time.  

You'd be surprised how much you can fit into a week-long journey to the emerald island.  From Dublin, it's only about two hours drive to get to the stunning landscape along the western shoreline, also known as the Wild Atlantic Way.  Or you could trek south a couple of hours from Dublin and kiss the Blarney stone near Cork, the country's second-largest city.  But you would be amiss if you didn't stop in the medieval town of Kilkenny along the way to explore the history that goes back many centuries.  You could also venture 2 hours north from Dublin to Belfast and continue to the Causeway Coastal Route for more spectacular natural scenery.  

It doesn't matter if you want to spend 3 days or 3 weeks in Ireland, nor does it matter if you just want to enjoy a pint of Guinness and some of the amazing food or if you want to take an outdoor adventure, there is something for everyone to like about Ireland.

Lost without Justin!
Reviewed By Wymericans - Florence, Rome, Sorrento | Traveled to Italy | Europe
We were looking to take our family abroad for the first time and had no idea where to start and not enough time to figure everything out. We thought using a travel agent would be the way to go. After a few failed attempts with agents that weren’t really providing what we needed, we found Justin through a recommendation from a friend. We are so grateful to have found him! After learning what our family was looking for in a hour long meeting, he was able to narrow down locations and recommended two potential vacation itineraries. We were blown away by how thoughtful and personalized they were. We picked Italy and didn’t have to change one thing from his initial recommendation. He covered travel, lodging, and activities to Florence, Rome, and Sorrento. He helped us book things and sent us lots of helpful information. For two busy working parents, this was greatly appreciated. We had the vacation of a lifetime. The kids loved everything and the selections Justin made were excellent. We w

Trip to Italy and Greece
Reviewed By Tina - Minneapolis, MN | Traveled to Europe
Justin was awesome! He was extremely helpful in planning my first trip out of the country to Europe. I liked that he initially provided different itinerary options and then we worked together to narrow down to one itinerary. He was very flexible in adding or removing activities and places in our trip. He also was extremely helpful in providing general knowledge to any questions I had about Europe. I loved that he provided personal recommendations and even was very responsive to any questions I had while abroad. All the activities we had planned were awesome. So much fun. Also all the restaurant recommendations were amazing as well! I would highly recommend him to anyone and I will be using his services again on my next trip abroad!

First time using a travel agent...will definitely use again
Reviewed By klewis - Hebron, MD | Traveled to Iceland | Europe
Justin was very easy and flexible to work with. He helped greatly to help us brainstorm ideas that aligned with our interests. He does not push you to book everything with him and was flexible on how things work. He had great communication throughout the process including during travel and the application he uses to support the trip is very helpful.

A fantastic Adriatic cruise for our anniversary!
Reviewed By Matt and Lori Jo Bergan - Forest Lake, MN | Traveled to Adriatic Sea | At Sea | At Sea
Justin helped set us up for an absolutely amazing cruise to Greece, Croatia and Italy for our 35th anniversary. Justin was a key resource through the entire process - from planning the trip, choosing great excursions, and helping us extend our stay on both ends with great recommendations for Athens and Venice. Most importantly, Justin was always uber-responsive to our many questions along the way, and was even proactive by offering tips and helpful advice for each port. In summary, Justin's efforts were highly beneficial and greatly enhanced our vacation experience. We would not hesitate to work with Justin in planning our future vacations! Highly recommended.

My Travel Stories

From Bushmills to Belfast

From Bushmills to Belfast

One of the most picturesque settings in Northern Ireland is the Giant's Causeway. It is a hugely popular tourist destination, attracting around a million visitors each year.  It was something that I did not want to miss on my 10 day journey through Ireland. The nearest town to the Giant's Causeway is Bushmills, where I stayed at an incred...

A typical narrow road in Ireland

Driving on the Left

When I travel I rent a car in almost every destination I go to at some point in my journey.  It gives me the freedom to take my own adventures and to see those off the beaten path towns and unspoiled natural beauty.  It also gives me the chance to go at my own pace and set my own schedule. Most cities, especially those in Europe and Asia,...

Standing Outside of Dublin

A Memorable 2 Days in Lively Dublin

I wasn't sure what to expect when we got to Dublin.  It doesn't have the iconic landmarks of other European cities like the Colosseum in Rome, The Louve in Paris or Big Ben in London. There isn't that one thing that everyone must do or see.  Add onto this that we brought our 4-year-old daughter with us and that made determining what to do and se...

Client Testimonials

Norway Couples Trip
Justin was the perfect person to help with arrangements to a trip to Norway for 3 couples in May. We already had booked the 11 day Hurtigruten Cruise . We met with him in person and discussed what we wanted and he had several other great suggestions. He booked our air, Norway trains, some hotels, a 7 hour private Hardanger fjord tour and all were wonderful. The week before we left our boat tour was changed by one day and Justin took care of rebooking trains and hotels for us. He also sent information to all us regarding customs in Norway, food, tipping, phone use and so much more which was very helpful. We all appreciated his expertise. We would definitely use Justin for our future travel needs.
