The best tour guide in Ireland! We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide then Derek! It never felt like a tour - it just felt like we were hanging out with a friend. Derek is just so personable and full of knowledge about so many things about Ireland, beyond the sites and tours. The sites were beautiful - Derek knew all the best spots for photos, the best places for lunch, the best place to shop for authentic Irish souvenirs. HIs car was clean and comfortable and he was always early. We did two day tours with Derek while in Ireland and we all had a fantastic time! The next time I am there I will be calling him again!

Practically Perfect in every way. Derek picked us up right on time. We had provided an itinerary of items that we hoped to see and he organized them in the best possible position for a custom experience. My three teenagers, young child, and all adults were impressed with his knowledge and excitement in sharing this country. Would 100% recommend.

No one better to show you around Ireland! No one knows the area better then Derek. He knows everyone and they know him so we received “VIP” treatment wherever we went. The sights were amazing and the pace of the travel was perfect.

Magical day We had a magical day in the Boyne Valley with Derek as our guide. The area is full of wonders and he put together an itinerary that maximized what we saw while allowing us to relax and take it in. These are the type of sites that require explanation for full appreciation and Derek lives and breathes the history of this area. He is delightful to be with, punctual and professional, a good communicator. On the way back to our hotel we were fantasizing about changing our fight home in order to roam Ireland some more with Derek.

Love to travel

The PERFECT tours. Derek Smith is the perfect guide to Ireland. I asked for a special tour of how the Irish families live and where they go. Derek set up the perfect tour or should I say tours. I am still smiling over everything we did. He is so knowledgeable and proud of his country. He would tell me the history of every area that we went to, and we went to quite a few places. Can't wait to go back for more of his tours. You don't have to worry about the time limit he is flexible and always on time to pick you up. You can't go wrong with Custom Irish Tours (Derek Smith).

outstanding visit to Ireland This is the fourth time I’ve taken tours with Derek. Every time has been unique and amazing. His ideas are tailored to my preferences but he’s so knowledgeable I just let him lead. As a result I’ve gotten to experience so many beautiful places all over Ireland including Birr Castle, the Cliffs of Moher and the Burren. I fully recommend his tours for an amazing immersion into this beautiful country!

Insider view into they Boyne Valley and Wicklow Mountains Derek Smith provided an up close and personal perspective of the history and culture in Boyne Valley. Slane Abbey, New Grange and Knoth were early hi-lights of our two day tour. Derek’s intimate knowledge of the area and his passion for sharing is evident in his attention to detail. He went out of his way to include areas of particular interest for us, as well as out of the way spots we wouldn’t have been aware of. Our return to Dublin through the Wicklow Mountains and along the coastline was memorable beyond belief. Derek was great to work with during our early meetings and provided great recommendations for lodging In Kilkenny as well as choices for dining.

Happy Family Review Derek Smith at Beautiful Meath/Custom Irish Tours is a knowledgeable and friendly guide that provides truly customized and unique tours of Ireland. We (2 adults and an 11-year old) experienced so much history, culture, food, and fun. I know (especially with COVID restrictions) we would have never been able to achieve these experiences and memories without Derek’s guidance. Everything he suggested was a huge hit with us as he truly listened to what we wanted on our trip and delivered with enthusiasm. I highly recommend Derek’s services!

Thank you Derek!!! We did 7 days with Derek in the west of Ireland. We pretty much left it up to him to plan our visit. After our daughter hurt her foot the week before our trip, he pivoted to accommodate her needs. We would never have been able to see and do as much as we did if we had done the trip on our own. His knowledge and experience took us to places unknown to most. He’s a wonderful travel companion that fills the stretches with fun and exciting stories. We loved our time with him and would do it again in a heartbeat. We unequivocally recommend Beautiful Meath Tours to anyone wanting to experience Ireland!

Fantastic trips!! We did 2 tours with Derek, at Custom Irish Tours. One trip to the Cliffs of Moher and one trip to the Giants Causeway, Dunluce Castle and Belfast City. Derek is a fantastic tour guide, knowledgeable and a lovely person to spend time with. Both trips have been on our list for a very long time and they did not disappoint. So glad Derek did all the driving so I could truly enjoy myself. Derek new all the places to see along the way, all the lovely places to visit for eats, all the picture perfect spots and the history of the areas. Derek, also connected us with Rory for a walking history tour of Belfast city, definitely take all his recommendations, you will not regret it. We also did the Titantic experience in Belfast, it’s a must. Wish we could have stayed longer in all places. Next time we will do a longer trip with Derek. We are very fortunate to have found him, a true gem!
