Top Isle of Man Tours, Sightseeing & Cruises

Make the most of your time on Isle of Man and tour the island with a private guide. Situated in the Irish Sea between England and Ireland, the area was once home to Vikings, as evidenced by the many neolithic tombs, Celtic crosses, burial grounds, castles and forts that dot the island. Admire the sweeping terrain—sandy beaches, rugged cliffs, and rolling hills that meet in a mountainous center.

In the 1800's there was a large emigration from the Isle of Man to countries such as Canada, Australia and the United States due to extreme poverty and opportunities that were being offered in the new worlds.

This will include the family history with research before your visit, as well as a tour of parts of the island that your family lived in, together with visits to churches where they may have been baptised, married or buried. I have an accreditation for genealogy research with Strathclyde University through Future Learn and I am on a list of researchers maintained by the Manx Museum library. Each tour would be tailored to your needs. If you would like to contact me for a tour, I can help you connect with your past and then take you into the present and what the island has to offer now.
