      Mini Bio

      I am a professional forester and explorer. I feel most at home adventure biking along the quietest paths I can find and in the sea going for a paddle or a surf. Showing off the little green island of Ireland is something I love to do, especially the paths seldom taken. Being a forester means I have extensive knowledge of everything to do with woodlands throughout Ireland, a knowledge which I love to share.

      Favourite Place to Play

      The west coast of Ireland is my favourite place to explore, whether it’s biking along the coastal roads, hiking along its many tracks and paths, or surfing in the wild Atlantic Ocean; I feel exhilarated along the Irish west coast.

      Not a lot of People Know This

      I won a trophy for Irish dancing when I was a kid.

      Forester. Father. Guide.

      Experience Read More

      I’ve done many unsupported bike trips across Europe and always seek out the quietest routes.

      Biking along coastal roads across Ireland, the UK and France and getting the chance to discover the breathtaking views of quiet cliffs and beaches of these countries are experiences I will always treasure.

      Wandering and exploring the Alps is something I have done many times. Each time travelling back feels like a completely new encounter.

      Aside from my adventure experience, I am also a Forest Service and Native Woodland scheme-approved forester and a member of the Association of Irish Forestry Consultants.

      My biggest adventure was completing the Camino de Santiago, not once but twice!

      As I mentioned before, the guides Fergus and Warner were excellent. I always felt safe and supported if I got tired on the bike. I also appreciated their reinforcement that this was a holiday and there was no pressure to keep up with faster riders. We were encouraged to stop and take photos and enjoy the scenery.

      As I already said we had the best guides in the world. They were so much fun and knowledgeable about our rides and the history of the country. They made us feel at home and took very good care of our needs. They went above and beyond and always with a smile and kind words. They wanted us to have a great time and really worked hard to make that happen.

      We were self-guided, but our guide really helped out throughout each day as needed and was responsive. He answered questions, provided interesting context to the area, and made it a great experience.

      I cannot be more grateful to Fergus for being helpful and friendly to our group. He went beyond the expected to make our trip a success. HIs action to locate and retrieve one of our group who took a few wrong turns was exemplary.

      Fergus was the best guide we could have hoped for. From his chill attitude to his vast knowledge, we were very lucky to have gotten such a great guy. Always prepared and fun to be around.

      Our guide provided us with his wealth of knowledge about Ireland. He did a great job of introducing us to the historical landmarks and made sure we saw some of the most beautiful landscapes Ireland has to offer. He was willing to change course to cater to our requests and he was a great driver on those crazy curvy roads!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Fergus.
