Testimonials

"Stephanie is a master of building community and her tours bring you fully into the fold. Every activity she facilitated on my last adventure with her was engaging, connecting, and authentic. I jumped at the chance to participate in her tours with The Celtic Way to Ireland & the UK, and would encourage those interested in making meaningful connections in a new land to do the same.”

Theresa Cashman

“Travelling with Steph Woollard on one of her organised tours is educational, informative, authentic and loads of fun. I would highly recommend her tours to anyone who is interested. She ensures there is a blend of various local experiences, access to subject matter experts and enough ‘down’ time so that one does not feel rushed. You will be taken care of and feel like part of the community rather than a tourist.”

Mikaela Stafrace

“I have travelled overseas with Stephanie Woollard on a guided and organise tour. I found it to be very professional, very interesting and the activities struck a lovely balance between informative and challenging as well as fun and locally interesting. I left the country feeling like my life was enriched from having had the experience. We also met some incredible people and came back inspired.”

The True and Authentic Local Experience

Why settle with a book or a prerecorded video when you can hear it from the locals themselves? Every Celtic Way tour includes one-of-a-kind opportunities to meet up with passionate Irish folks and learn about their culture first-hand through fascinating stories, captivating trivia, and maybe a joke here and there, all shared through a warm, hearty lunch.

Our main tour guide, award-winning social entrepreneur Stephanie Woollard OAM, is a third-generation Irish descendant with fond memories of soul-stirring Celtic tunes, a well-documented family heritage - and a desire to share her love for Ireland with the world. Her connections and guidance open the door to new worlds, wonderful people - and a pretty good sense of humour!
