Adam & Butler are catering for the rich and famous

Siobhán Byrne Learat talks to Trish Dromey about the success of her upscale tour operator firm Adams & Butler.

Arranging a castle stay in Ireland for Michael Jackson when he visited in 2006, helped Dublin company Adams & Butler become established as a travel organiser for the ultra-rich and the very famous.

“Michael Jackson stayed for a year, spending time at Luggala Castle in Wicklow and at a country house in Westmeath. He was our first mega client. Since then we have organised holidays in Ireland for celebrities such as Taylor Swift, Kim and Kanye West, and Harrison Forde,” says company founder Siobhán Byrne Learat, adding that business clients have included chiefs executive and presidents of global companies such as Disney, Pixel and Starbucks.
