About Me

Cliffs of Moher
Cliffs of Moher

I've had the incredible opportunity to visit Ireland twice in the past four years, and each trip has deepened my love for this enchanting land. From the vibrant Republic of Ireland to the captivating Northern Ireland, both regions are brimming with unique experiences and deserve to be explored.For first-time visitors, I suggest starting your journey in Dublin, where history beautifully blends with vibrant modernity. Begin your exploration at Trinity College and marvel at the ancient Book of Kells. Don't miss soaking in the panoramic views from the Guinness Storehouse's Gravity Bar. Dive into centuries of history at Dublin Castle, and then immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of the Temple Bar area, where bustling streets are lined with iconic pubs perfect for a pint.Next, head west to Galway, a city renowned for its artistic spirit and charming coastal ambiance. Discover the Spanish Arch, enjoy a leisurely stroll along the Salthill Promenade, and delve into the city’s rich history at the Galway City Museum. A short trip away, the Cliffs of Moher await with dramatic ocean vistas and an engaging visitor center.Venture further to Killarney National Park for breathtaking landscapes and embark on the scenic Ring of Kerry drive, where stunning spots like Torc Waterfall will leave you in awe. In Cork, be sure to kiss the Blarney Stone at Blarney Castle, explore the bustling English Market, and ring the Shandon Bells for exceptional views of the city.Finally, cap off your adventure in Donegal, where the wild beauty of the Slieve League Cliffs and the serene Glenveagh National Park offer unforgettable scenery and historical depth.This revised version retains the essence of your wonderful experiences and suggestions while presenting them in a more polished and engaging manner. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to tweak!

Best trip my family and I have ever been apart of!
Reviewed By Eric - Centreville, va | Traveled to Los Cabos ~ Baja California Sur ~ Mexico
Shannon is by far one of the most caring, hard working, and amazing human beings I have ever met. Every part of the trip making process was smooth sailing because of Shannon! She responded to all of my questions and concerns in a timely yet in depth fashion. She always went over the top the help. She handled multiple obstacles that came up through the process, (covid 2020 anyone?). She did everything with a smile on Her face and always willing to go the extra mile. I have the blessing of knowing Shannon personally and I say blessing because it truly is one. I cannot recommend Shannon enough!!!!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Great Family Summer Vacay!
Reviewed By Travis - Wake Forest, NC | Traveled to Italy ~ Europe
This past summer (August 22), our family traveled to Italy and split time between multiple cities. We only gave Shannon a few weeks to help us out, but the itinerary was great and the trip details were flawless. We will definitely be using Shannon again and very soon we hope!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.
