An Experience to Cherish! - I ended up missing my morning slot because of a delay with my rental car, however i called up expecting the worse and instead to my delight, Rauidhri welcomed my mum and I down all the same... So glad that he did because the experience was fantastic! My mum whos parents were both from Donegal, especially enjoyed the tour, where we saw magnificent views of Errigal Mountain and the breath taking Poisoned Valley! The bikes were lots of fun and easy to get the hang of and we stayed in communication via the supplied bluetooth helmets, so Rauidhri could give us the scoop on all the sites and surrounding areas... We also got to sample the sweetest wild blackberries that we were able to pluck straight from the bush! Cannot recommend enough. It is an experience my mum and I will both cherish forever! 5 stars all around!

Great day out - We had a brilliant day out. Ruaidhri was very knowledgeable about the area and made sure that everyone was enjoying themselves. The e bike meant that the hills weren’t too strenuous and we got very lucky with the weather. Would definitely recommend this tour

John’s Day Out - Three us went with no experience on electric bikes, had an awesome time , so easy to manoeuvre and so relaxing.
Rory was very thorough in his briefing, and the link up helmets added a new dimension to the hole day .
So I would thoroughly recommend this to any age group.

Fantastic day out - Ruaidhrí is a great down to earth host and gave us a fantastic tour on the bikes. I'm not the fittest person but these bikes are very easy to use and are a god send when it comes to hills. So as long as you can ride a bike you should be fine on these. Very informative tour, would highly recommend doing this. Great day out. Thank you both for everything.

A must do Experience - Such a fantastic day from start to finish, once booked and confirmed Ruadhri sent clear instructions as to what was needed to make sure our trip went with ease. On arrival he got us kitted out with safety belts and helmets which all connected together via Bluetooth so we could hear and talk to eachother. The fun could still be had while on the road.. the bikes themselves where well maintained and the route was amazing. The views where unreal even with Errigal covered in fog. The rain didn't stop us, thanks again for your kindness and helping make memories for us all. As I am not a fit person, I managed the full trip with ease, approx 36 km done with plenty stops for coffee, photo opportunities. Well done 👏

Such a Great Tour! - I did the eBike Guided tour with Ruaidhri back in March. It was a great experience and his local knowledge and suggestions were great! The eBikes were great, they made going up the hills such a breeze. Was also really cool to have walkie talkie helmets so we could chat along the route. would highly recommend!

Donegal landscapes done in 3 hours - We really covered a good amount of ground in that 3 hours. The e-bikes are a GREAT tool to get that done. Such a range of landscapes/ geography and sites. We really felt like we had seen the full range of geography that Donegal had to offer.
The bike helmet intercom technology was also a great tool but it was a bit “on and off again” throughout the 3 hours.
