We live and work on the peninsula where the Irish Language is still spoken. For us, Irish is a language worth preserving and promoting. We encourage visitors to learn a little about this central part of our heritage.
Sciuird Archaeological Tours have been bringing these sites alive for visitors since 1993. It is a small family owned business with a passion for the past.

Archaeology is the peeping Tom of the sciences. It is the sandbox of men who care not where they are going; they merely want to know where everyone else has been.
