Trip cancelled without notification.

We booked through Trip Advisor. Our trip was cancelled and we were not notified about the cancellation. We were able to connect with the tour operator when we arrived, who was very pleasant and offered options for other things to do in the area. He was aware that the trip was cancelled. My money was only refunded after I contacted Trip Advisor. I continued to get emails asking me to review the trip.

First Time on an e-bike

First time on an e-bike and loved it. Cathal was a fantastic guide with a huge amount of knowledge of the local area. We visited some beautiful sites and enjoyed the tales from Cathal along the way. Would highly recommend booking if you are in the area.

Discover the inner landscapes of Donegal

We enjoyed this tour thanks Carl and it was great to see inner landscapes in Donegal County and hear the history and stories. The weather played nice....would recommend this tour to others who have some experience biking. Remember to bring midge spray and it will be difficult if you've not ridden a bike!

A fabulous morning’s activity!

We, a family of 4 adults had a brilliant morning’s guided tour on the e-bikes! I think we covered about 40km in 3 hours and saw so much more of the area than we would’ve done walking or on our own. The bikes were easy to use, a full instructions and safety equipment provided. I even looked forward to the hills! Cal was really friendly and a great tour guide with lots of information and stories about the area that we’d never visited before. We were very lucky with the weather and the scenery was amazing. Would highly recommend this activity.
