Really enjoyed this tour. Stephen is a great guide. It’s great to get a local tour with a local expert, who has a wide range of knowledge and skills. I’m delighted to discover new places and learn new things! Jessie Mc Donald9 November 2025Verified Slow down and have a moment to get to know the Greenway I want to give a five-star review to Stiofán of Steps back through time and say how enjoyable it was for me as a tourist guide to stop and enjoy the local gems of wisdom in Kilmacthomas on the Waterford Greenway. Kilmac is a lovely village with lots of character and characters, steeped in history, flora, and fauna — as well as the outstanding viaduct itself.I enjoyed the passion, the knowledge, and the warm welcome that he offered. It is local stories and local gems of knowledge like these that make all the difference to tourists. I look forward to coming back with clients for him in the not-too-distant future. Wishing you all the best, and thanks again for your time, your kindness, and the genuine hospitality that made the visit so special Eva R24 September 2025Verified Tour in Dangarvin Guide was really friendly and accommodating. He knew a lot about the history and country. Could answer all questions and the tour was interesting and not boring at all. Tourist6360123620029 August 2025Verified Interesting and entertaining! Stiofán is so knowledgeable and makes this 2 hour walking tour so enjoyable. My dad is from Dungarvan, I've heard loads of stories over the years, but this tour taught me so much more. Highly recommend doing this on a nice day 😀 Mary M15 August 2025Verified Not to be missed if in Dungarvan. A wonderful afternoon in Dungarvan with an amazing Guide, Stiofan.He is so knowledgable, informed in many areas and sociable. We enjoyed every minute of the tour, which covered history, nature, geography, heritage and social aspects of the town.We plan to take another tour shortly to Kilmacthomas.Highly recommended if you are from the area or on holiday in the area. JLaFleur8 July 2025Verified What an Incredible Way to See a Town! My family and I experienced the Taste Waterford/Dungarvan tour on 26 June 2025. Stiofan was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable - his passion for history was impressive. This tour felt like being shown about by a friend! And the tastings - soooo good. Fresh, local food. The night capped off at The Local where we enjoyed Irish coffee and trad music. I can't say enough good things about this tour - I highly recommend to anyone who will be in Waterford county. Patricia H30 May 2025Verified Wonderful introduction to Dungarvin We absolutely loved the tour of Dungarvin that we took with Stiofan. We learned so much about the history and geography of Dungarvin. Stiofan was so knowledgeable, friendly and engaged our group of 4. I can not think of a better way to explore the area; we would highly recommend this tour Georgina F25 April 2025Verified Highly recommend the Dungarvan tour! My mother and I took part Stiofán’s food tour of Dungarvan during the food festival. It was an incredible experience to take a walk back through the history of Dungarvan and learn about our hometown from a new perspective, while stopping off in some of the best restaurants along the way! Stiofán is a wealth of knowledge and his passion for the local area is clear. I would highly recommend his Dungarvan tour whether you are a local or visitor! Thank you Stiofán!

Testimonials
I took a group from our Twin City – Märkischer Kreis in Germany – to a talk by Stiofán, and they greatly enjoyed it. He struck a nice balance between being informative without overload.
In other words, he quickly and sensitively assessed his target audience. He was warm, welcoming and interesting. The German group [mixed by age and gender] reported it as a lovely experience.

Thoroughly enjoyed my walking tour with Stíofán around Kilmacthomas; a delightful and light-hearted experience full of knowledge, tales and historical stories about the local area and beyond; taking in the wildlife, nature and tranquillity of the surrounding Waterford countryside.
Would highly recommend a day out with this modern seanachaí! Up the Deise!

Momentum Events recently hosted a Team Bonding Day for a client in the Coach House, one of the activities was a walking tour around the famine workhouse and Kilmacthomas village.
I contacted Stíofán and he looked after this element of the event. Stíofán was very professional and very easy to work with, he tailored his walking tour to suit the needs of the group. Most importantly, the participants loved Stíofán’s tour - they all found it very interesting and very worthwhile.
The feedback from the group was overwhelmingly positive. Would have no hesitation recommending Stíofán and we will definitely be back to him again for future events.

"Stíofán leads a most enjoyable walk in Kilmacthomas that no visitor should miss.
His vast knowledge ranges from the construction of the Greenway Viaduct - the only curved viaduct in Ireland and a marvellous testimony to the skill of the engineers almost two hundred years ago, to what Daniel O Connell actually said to the good citizens of the town when trying to get them to support his campaign for Catholic emancipation in the 1820's.
He is fascinating about the river Mahon and its importance in powering the mills in the town, not to speak of how it thwarted Oliver Cromwell, and he can recreate the terrible period in Ireland typified by the Workhouse building. You will see Kilmac in a new light after a tour with Stíofán."
