Meet Your Guide

A warm welcome from Donna

I'm Donna McCloy, a Level 3 driver-guide based in Ballymoney, County Antrim. I grew up in the countryside outside Belfast and love sharing Northern Ireland's coastal scenery, local stories and hidden gems.

With my smaller vehicle, your day is private and personal. We travel at your pace, linger where you love it, and I'll share the stories behind every stop along the way.
