Everything We Hoped It Would Be - This bike tour with Steve was such a wonderful experience. Everything from the coffee and the quick get to know you chat, through lunch and the afternoon trails was perfect for our couples getaway. The weather cooperated for being a late fall booking and the views were EXCEPTIONAL. Steve was a great guide and his knowledge of the area was helpful. We would never have been able to find those trails or those spots on our own!

Magical Cong Bike Tour - My sister and I traveled to Ireland for a wedding in Galway Sept 2023. We wanted to explored the beautiful country side of Ireland. We both love to bike. We book this Magical Bike tour around the Cong starting in town of Clonbur with Steve as our guide. We loved it. We biked through beautiful country fields and forest. We stopped for lunch in town at pub McHughs. The food was delicious.
Steve is the perfect guide. He is very friendly and knowledgeable about the area and we biked the pace that was comfortable for myself and my sister.
I would highly recommend this bike tour with Steve to everyone.

A very special tour - Myself and two girlfriends drove out from Galway to meet Steve and went on an amazing bike tour. It included the bikes, helmets, a pre-ride coffee and amazing lunch. We had a beautiful ride through the countryside, forest and also toured around Ashford Castle. Many chances to stop for breaks, take in the views and take pictures. Steve was a wonderful guide, he’s super friendly and knowledgably, we never would have found this route on our own! We had the best day all thanks to Steve!!
