Dublin is overflowing with rich history, folklore, architectural wonders, and a unique atmosphere that combines the best of Europe and the surrounding Great Britain in one location. What better way to discover the highlights of this diverse city than with a friendly local guide!
Our Dublin by Bike Tour uncovers the palpable charm that flows throughout the city. We will start by taking you through the main thoroughfares and side streets where tour buses cannot go. We'll stop and see the exterior of Dublin Castle and St. Patrick's Cathedral, plus provide you with a brief history of each of these famous sites and some fun anecdotes that you're sure not to forget. We'll also see the icon of Dublin; the Guinness Factory. No trip to Dublin is complete without a stopover here, potentially followed by an evening along Temple Bar. Our guides will give you the inside scoop on it all and make sure that know how to best use your time in Dublin after the tour.
With no inclines and a relaxed pace, this is a great fit for most riders; we just ask that you feel confident on a bike. You can leave the rest to us, and we will ensure an unforgettable introduction to Ireland's capital city.

Well it rains a lot in Ireland, so bring your rain gear! We will still operate the tour in rain or shine. On the rare occasion where we need to cancel due to heavy rains, we will reach out to see if we can reschedule, or we will cancel and offer a refund. We also have rain ponchos available at the meeting point.
We unfortunately do not have children's bikes available, but anyone 14 or older is welcome to join if they're tall enough and confident in their riding skills. Riders 14-17 years old must have a parent/guardian present to sign a waiver and participate in the tour with them; we will not accept unaccompanied minors on tour. We use Cube touring bikes with trapeze frames that provide a gentle slope from the handlebar to the seat post so that it's easy to step onto and dismount from the bike, even for shorter guests.

We unfortunately won't have time to visit every site, so we've designed this tour to give you a broad understanding of Dublin. We will, however, provide you with plenty of tips and our insights as to the best places to visit on your own after the tour.
We wish that we could accommodate special requests like this, but you will be part of a larger, public group. If you have other things scheduled within the 2.5 hour tour time, we would suggest looking to reserve with us on a different day so that you can fully appreciate the tour.
