Dalriada Kingdom Tours

Picture
Mark Rodgers of Dalriada Kingdom Tours
NORTHERN IRELAND | This is a family run business that has a history of guiding on the Giants Causeway that dates  back more than 125 years. Our history and heritage affords us a unique insight into this iconic site and no one knows "The Causeway   " and the surrounding shoreline the way we do.
     The company name, Dalriada Kingdom Tours, makes reference to the fact that in the 4th,5th and 6th centuries this part of North East Ulster, the islands in between, and the Western parts of Scotland around Argyllshire and Lochaber formed the old Kingdom of Dalriada. This kingdom was hugely influential in our history, we can trace the origins of Christianity back to that period of time on our island. Our strong Christian faith shapes and forms us and we use this name for our company in recognition that “our future is anchored in our past”.
     For more information and booking, visit the Dalriada Kingdom Tours website..
"Ireland is my home, and I was born in the province of Ulster. My ancestors came from Donegal, and I am a Celt. I have spent more than 30 years of my adult life trying to bring peace to my country, and now that it is here, nothing makes me prouder than to be able to introduce my guests to my family, my friends, and our neighbors - an eclectic mix of cultures and classes from the landed gentry to the working man all with that common gift that they touch the people they meet. To stand among your guests and tell a story that connects them to that moment when you can take them to another place in another time and see them physically change to purely emotional human beings is the rawest, most innocent form. That is the moment that is truly magical and nothing else can ever come close to replicating that.
     "I have a wild spirit. For as long as I am here in my home with my people, I will forever be free, and when I am gone, I will whisper in the winds to the one that follows me." ~ Mark Rodgers

Writer - Betsi Hill - Betsi's World

Picture
FLORIDA | Betsi and Jim Hill, husband and wife of 30 years, as the traveling team of Betsi's World.

Betsi is the founder and creative editor, bringing her attention to detail to every piece they produce. Both in freelancing and on the blog, she crafts lifestyle, history, culture and cuisine content for each destination they visit. They have lived on a shoestring budget, enabling them to retire in their mid-50s.
 
Jim is the media editor, capturing the essence of a destination or experience through the lens of his camera. He contributes content on boating and travel hacks to Betsi’s World and other publications.
The Betsi's World team travels the South, Florida, the Bahamas & Caribbean by land or by sea, looking for the very best destinations to share with our readers and social media audience. They love luxury travel….on a budget! They travel onboard their tiny house on the sea, Saltwater Gypsea, searching for the best beaches, tiki bars, food, and local culture. Their adventures have taken them through the islands of the Bahamas, the Florida Keys, and the East Coast of the US. They are always seeking out the best beaches, luxury resorts and marinas, local food & drink, and culture for their stories. Their 2nd mate, Zach, a 10-year old Maltese rescue is often found on the bridge of Gypsea, overseeing Betsi and Jim!
Betsi and Jim focus on finding adventure wherever the seas may take them!
