This tour was revamped in 2022. The updated itinerary showcases beautiful Connemara — just like our classic tour — but it includes bonus biking in the lovely Westport region and on the Great Western Greenway. This Westport tour also gives you the option for a hike up the iconic Croagh Patrick.
Ireland is a dream for cyclists. Enjoy the winding roads, meadows dotted with sheep and cows, and mist-covered mountains. Sample local food and drink in the classic pubs. And be charmed by the architecture, traditional music and welcoming local residents along the way. Cycle scenic peninsulas with vistas of the wild north Atlantic. Visit castles, an abbey, lakes, peat bogs and more.
Included is an opportunity to hike to the top of Croagh Patrick, Ireland’s traditional “Holy Mountain.” Don’t miss the magic of Ireland on this special new itinerary.
You also have the option to add a 3-day pre-trip to Galway and the Aran Islands. This is a great way to start your adventures in Ireland, get to know a special town ... and bike on a remote island.
