Cycling Ireland

Bicycle through 40 shades of green and 4,000 years of history in the legendary West of Ireland. You’ll cycle past prehistoric dolmens, ancient ring forts, and once-powerful castles and abbeys, their stonework beautifully preserved over the centuries. In tiny fishing villages, pubs legendary for their traditional music weave a spell with the hypnotic sounds of the bodhrán, pennywhistle, and country fiddle. Discover the best of Ireland biking in the spirited company of our native Irish tour guides.
