nativeguide.ie is a small independent new business with big ideas. It's owner sees it as a hobby with business potential. Profits, if any, will be reinvested to grow the project and to increase its ability to improve the lives of individuals by allowing them a place to unwind. The product is rapid, easy and effective downtime on your terms. To prove our optimism we have opted for an open top jeep. The owner grew up thinking Tober was the centre of the universe and would like to show you why. Experience as an Employee Assistance Provider and Life skills Coach and travel and work abroad, reinforces a confidence that Tober can be a perfect playground for the busy adult.

Its location at the junction of the M6 and N80 in County Offaly, in the heart of Ireland, makes Tober the perfect one stop shop for self care and relaxation. It is about half way between Dublin and Galway and in the centre of the triangle of Mullingar, Tullamore and Athlone.

We welcome the weary executive or tourist to stop the world and get off in Tober. The area provides places of peace and tranquillity or action and adventure. The midland’s physical landscape, historical sites, architectural heritage and enterprising towns provide the backdrop for a range of tours. We offer fresh air and a fresh perspective for those who spend their time behind glass in offices or cars.

There are places to rest or you can join us for a Jeep tour. We invite our guests to sit back and relax while our gabby cabby talks about the area. All our trips are like little school tours for adults. It works best if you start the trip with the open mind and the anticipation you brought to your first school tour. It is a safe safari of sorts. Who needs tigers? Surely there are enough frights in an ordinary day. We offer the thrills without the spills.

Our guides have lived locally and will wish to preserve this beautiful village for future generations.

For the sake of the 7th generation to come we are eco aware. We select comfortable and powerful vehicles but hope that when they are on the move we cause our passengers to park their cars and learn to love the country side. Every effort will be made to offset our footprint. Business cards and office stationary will be printed sparingly and on recycled paper. We ask you to bookmark this site, email it to a friend or record the details in your diary or travel guide so you have it handy when you find yourself in the midlands.

As we grow we hope to add quality support services, such as, coaching and stress management for busy people who need to consider or reconsider the pace of their lives. Until then we are happy to be your country concierge providing information on expertise and services available locally.
