Guided Tour
Introduction
Itinerary >
Charming Inns >
Nothing could adequately describe the
resplendent rock garden that is the Burren, with its abundance of exotic flora, bird and
wildlife. Dotted with megalithic stone tombs, some representing the regions earliest
monuments (from about 3,800 BC) including Poulnabrone Dolman. There is an abundance of
Christian and pre-Christian monuments, along with medieval settlements - castles, ring
(fairy) forts, wishing wells and ancient churches spanning the centuries of time.
You will enjoy the stone
forts, monuments, alpine and arctic flowers and plants that grow side by side, the seeds
having been deposited by glacier millions of years ago. This is the mystical land of
disappearing rivers and lakes, closed valleys, caves and limestone pavements. You may even
find a real fairy fort!
The Aran Islands, three timeless islands in an endless sea showcase weathered monuments on
awesome cliffs, great labyrinths of limestone, meandering walls, patchwork fields, quiet
beaches and a welcoming island people.
For this rewarding bike trip, we have chosen a wonderful variety of quality, select
accommodations that offer a blend of comfort, location and personal hospitality. You will enjoy the delights of stunning settings
and vibrant culture.
Experience the Irish welcome: "Cead Mile Failte" (A Hundred Thousand Welcomes!)
and small village life as we travel the winding roads of the West.
"I
have decided that Ireland is my favourite place on Earth! I can't tell you how much
I enjoyed the bike tour. It was so beautiful and amazing! I really want to go
again".
