About Valhalla Tours

Guided by Story

A Journey Through Ireland,
Immersed in Story and Scenery

Valhalla Tours was founded in 2022 with a clear vision: to offer unforgettable journeys through Ireland that are rooted in authenticity, local knowledge, and personal connection. After nearly a decade guiding visitors from around the world across the island’s dramatic landscapes and ancient sites, founder Nick took the leap to create something of his own — a tour experience shaped by passion, storytelling, and a deep love for Ireland’s heritage.

Our Story

Where Every Detail
Tells a Story

At Valhalla Tours, we believe travel should be inspiring, immersive, and stress-free. That’s why we handle every detail, from itinerary design and accommodation to transport and hidden local gems. Our small group sizes mean we travel at a relaxed pace, allowing you to fully absorb the beauty and culture of each destination. Whether you’re following the path of the Vikings, standing atop windswept cliffs, or sharing stories in a traditional Irish pub, our tours are crafted to feel personal and meaningful — never rushed or generic.

We’re proud to go above and beyond for our guests, offering warm Irish hospitality and thoughtful service from the moment you get in touch. Whether you’re after a private multi-day journey, a bespoke day tour, or an adventure filled with myth, music, and memory, we’re here to make it happen. At Valhalla Tours, you’re not just visiting Ireland — you’re experiencing it through the eyes of those who know and love it best.

The Vikings established Dublin (originally "Dyflin") as a significant trading hub, which evolved into Ireland's modern capital and a centre of culture, commerce, and governance.

Viking raids and settlements opened Ireland to greater interactions with Scandinavia, the British Isles, and the wider European world, fostering cross-cultural relationships.

Meet Nick

Led by Passion,
Driven by Story

Valhalla Tours was founded by Nick, a seasoned guide with nearly a decade of experience bringing Ireland’s landscapes and legends to life. After years spent leading tours for other companies, he recognised what truly makes a journey memorable: personal connection, flexible pacing, and stories told from the heart.

Nick’s deep love for Irish history — especially the Viking influence woven through it — shines through in every tour. He doesn’t just recite facts; he brings the past to life with humour, insight, and a genuine love for sharing Ireland with others. Whether you’re tracing ancestral roots or simply soaking up the scenery, you’ll be in expert hands.

For Nick and the team at Valhalla, this work isn’t just a job — it’s a calling. Each tour is a chance to show guests the soul of Ireland, one story, one pint, one windswept cliff at a time.
