Carina McHugh

With over 13 years of experience as a step-on tour guide across Ireland, I bring a deep knowledge of the country’s landscapes, history, and everyday life to every tour.
Originally from Germany, I relocated to Ireland in 2012 and offer tours in both German and English. While I have enjoyed guiding all over Ireland, I am now concentrating my work in Donegal, where I can offer a more focused and in-depth experience of this unique region.
I offer a curated Donegal experience with a special focus on clothing—exploring traditional textiles, contemporary Irish design, and the stories woven into what we wear.
This is, however, just one of many possible approaches. My tours are fully adaptable, whether you’re interested in fashion, Ireland’s rich history, daily life, or specific themes such as the Irish famine.
In addition to guiding, I am also licensed to drive buses. While I regularly provide transport for school children, a bus can also be arranged for small private groups.
