A highlight of our week on Dublin. Highly recommend

We had a fabulous time on this tour. Ben, our guide, was a total pro and absolute delight. He was very safe, an excellent communicator, shared interesting Irish history and took us all over the city and countryside. My only complaint, the bike was a little old and didn’t change gears or have any padding on the seat so for an all day excursion, a bit uncomfortable but overall a wonderful time!

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Thanks so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the experience. I'm sorry the bike wasn't quite up to standard, but thank you for sharing this feedback. I will pass on to my bike partner for review and improvement
