Don’t miss this tour!
What a fabulous way to experience Kinsale! Miley provided us a safe experience biking around town with history and great views built in. It’s not physically exhausting and the e-bikes are very easy to use for any age.
Great way to see and learn about Kinsale
A beautiful and informative way to see Kinsale with a local who grew up here in the family home that his dad still resides in! Mylie, our guide, knew pretty much every local we passed on our way. Great mix of historical information, local lore, and insider tips. The small urban e-bikes have a lot of pep and adjust easily to riders of all sizes. Pleasant pace of biking with a few hills that were easily conquered.
Great Friend Ride
Miley made us feel completely comfortable navigating the streets and hillsides of Kinsale. While having a bit of pre-ride anxiety about biking on the roads we felt completely safe during the entire ride. Miley’s history of the town and county were fascinating while stopping to take in the vistas in town and the countryside. All around wonderful trip.
I Would Do It Again! For Sure!
Mylie (sp?) was excellent. So nice to have a local tell local stories about local people. And also share the history of Kinsale and Ireland in such a real and fun way. I would do it again! For sure!

My sisters and I did a road trip of Ireland for my sister’s 30th birthday. One of our stops was Kinsale. We can honestly say that the bike tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Miley was an incredible guide and his love for Kinsale really shows during the tour. The electric bikes made it seamlessly through the hills and Kinsale is such a beautiful town. I would recommend stopping right here and book this tour if looking for things to do in Kinsale. You will not be disappointed! Thanks again, Miley!
