Ireland West Coast Islands Private Adventure

Paul has been exploring the outdoors of Ireland for over 30 years, and is greatly appreciative of the opportunity to channel his love for the outdoors as a working mountain guide. He is deeply passionate for the adventures, people & culture of Ireland. His guests describe him as knowledgeable, caring, attentive, & energetic. When he's not guiding, Paul loves adventure racing. His most interesting fact? He once had a pet pig, who was an excellent soccer player!

Michelle has spent her entire career in the great outdoors, and got her first taste of adventure on an overland trip from England to Nepal before moving to Australia. She returned to the UK in a similar dramatic and adventurous fashion by sailing on a wooden junk for a three month journey from Darwin to Singapore. Since then, she has kayaked around the Bijagós Islands, off the coast of Guinea Bissau, hiked through the Dolomites and braved the mountains in Norway. But her passion for Ireland has always returned her back to the wild countryside where you can find her rock climbing, teaching navigation or sharing the stores of ancient Irish folklore and mythology.

Calliam's first foray into the mountains of Ireland was with his father when he was just three years old and he has been hooked ever since! His 10 years of experience guiding in the outdoors has taken him soaring across the peaks of Europe, Asia and South America; from hiking through the cloud forests of Peru to the sublime Bolivian Amazon to the lush jungles of Cambodia before returning to the allure of Ireland. There is nowhere he would rather be than sitting on its glittering emerald hills, gazing over the swirling waves of the Atlantic Ocean.
