MCT Irish Tours

1 review

Michael Cowell is the founder and owner of MCT Irish Tours. Michael is a National Tour Guide and Tour Coach Driver. Touring Ireland is second nature to him, and he garners immense pleasure from it, as is evident in the glowing reviews he has received. Michael has worked in the hospitality industry since leaving school, starting as a barman before becoming a charge hand and key holder. He left Ireland and toured the world with the cruise industry. His career took him from Cape Canaveral to Nassau in the Bahamas.

Michael was professional but really funny and fun to be with. He knows the history and imparts it in a way that is informative and interesting. We had the whole trip planned out with him in advance, but he was very flexible and gave us daily options. The hotels he booked for us were great. He also took us to multiple places that were wonderful, including a specialty pottery shop that was amazing. We will have great memories of this trip for the rest of our lives! I can't recommend Michael Cowell highly enough.
