“In 2009, I moved to Ireland for an adventure. I knew nobody and would live with strangers in a flat-share. One of my new flatmates sensed my nerves over email, and offered to pick me up from the bus depot. Upon escorting me to my new home, she invited her friends over to welcome me by playing traditional Irish music and enjoying a meal.

It was the first of many experiences with European hospitality. Eventually I found a career as a tour guide in Europe, and experienced some of the best tours in the world.

I thought Australia deserved these kind of tours, so I named my business after that first experience at the bus depot. Since 2017, my team and I have welcomed tens of thousands of guests as we match our knowledge with wit, charm, and an over-the-top attention to making our guests feel welcomed. I hope to welcome you on one of our tours soon.”
