Our self guided tours & audio guides are perfect for independent travellers who want to dig deep into the stories of Ireland.
One of the reasons we first started making audio guides was that we’d often go on self guided tours where we’d explore some incredible places, only to find after we returned home and looked up the story of the site that we’d missed out on some really cool features, or that there was another great place to see just up the road had we but known about it. It’s often the case too, that knowing the story of a place can really add to the experience. It adds depth and meaning, and helps you to imagine what it was like during its heyday. For example, it can be a transformative experience when you visit the ivy-clad ruins of a castle, armed with the knowledge of the individual people, their stories and the drama that took place. It’s almost as if the very walls speak to you.
Are you looking for self guided tours of Ireland but worried you might miss out on getting the full story? Whether you want to explore the World Heritage Sites of the Boyne Valley, discover ancient high crosses in Kildare or take a tour on the Wild Atlantic Way in the Loop Head Peninsula, our expertly-researched audio guides will ensure you don’t miss a thing on your self guided tours of Ireland. We have a range of audio guides that will lead you through some of Ireland’s historic towns, as well as longer-distance cycling or driving trails that you can spread over a weekend.
The audio guides are all professionally researched and written by archaeologists and historians, and they are recorded with experienced producers and sound engineers in the state of the art Bluebird Studios in County Kildare, with professional actors and voice-artists. All of our audio guides are available free to use, as they have been commissioned by national bodies or local authorities across the island of Ireland.
