About Me

Cliffs of Moher on a very windy day!
Cliffs of Moher on a very windy day!

Ireland is more than just a destination — it’s a feeling. Whether it’s your first visit or you’re returning to explore your roots, I create personalized Ireland itineraries that blend iconic sights with authentic, meaningful experiences.

When my husband and I explored Ireland, one of our favorite memories came from a pub in Kilkenny — just us, the barkeep, and a local swapping stories over a pint. The laughter, the warmth, the connection — that’s what I love most about Ireland. The castles and cliffs are incredible, but it’s the culture and people that truly stay with you.

Whether you're planning a romantic getaway, a multi-generational family trip, or a bucket-list solo journey, I tailor each itinerary with care. I specialize in Ireland vacations that balance history, culture, and natural beauty — from sheepdog demos and literary landmarks to castle stays and scenic hikes.

Craving a little adventure? Let’s explore the Wild Atlantic Way or hike through lush national parks. Prefer a slower pace? I can arrange private drivers, elegant manor houses, and the kind of quiet charm found in picture-perfect villages.

Interested in golf? Ireland boasts some of the most breathtaking and historic courses in the world, and I can seamlessly work them into your journey.

With access to trusted in-country partners, vetted small-group tours, and customizable FIT packages, I help you experience Ireland your way — and take the stress out of planning. Let’s create an itinerary filled with meaningful moments, friendly locals, and stories you’ll be telling long after you return.

Costa Rica was a blast!
Reviewed By Tim and Jenn Thompson - MO | Traveled to Costa Rica | Central America
Lara was able to book our trip pretty fast and it was amazing. Our rides were always on time to take us to multiple destinations and were so kind (even at 0340 in the morning). Traffic where we stayed was awful but at no one’s fault; however, the drivers were courteous and let us stop to use the restrooms, eat, etc. Lara was also prompt to answer my questions about tipping, arranging trips etc. we had a great time and have already referred her to some of my friends that plan going next year! Thanks Lara! Tim and Jenn ????
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Magical Family Trip
Reviewed By Bordel123 - Disney World | Traveled to Orlando | Florida | USA
Lara was a truly fantastic Disney travel coordinator and guide who made our trip absolutely magical from start to finish. Her attention to detail, deep knowledge of Disney, and thoughtful planning meant everything felt effortless for us, from smooth park days to perfectly timed experiences. She anticipated our needs, offered great tips, and handled every detail with care, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy the magic. Thanks to Lara, our trip was not only well organized but genuinely unforgettable, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide for our family Disney experience. ?
