6 day Itinerary
Definitely our
most popular trip, our West Coast Extravaganza is an extraordinary biking trip that takes
you through the best of Galway Bay and Connemara, including the Aran Islands.
Limestone plateaus and green
valleys, rich in flora and fauna, geology, archaeology, ancient settlements all
distinguish the Burren from wild and remote Connemara. Here we offer you a rich and vibrant
experience, great routes and physical interaction with the landscape: the perfect blend
for all cyclists.
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. From the rugged Twelve Bens mountain
range to the lake-rich Roundstone Bog and golden beaches reaching out into the Atlantic
Ocean, Connemara has long been regarded as the real emerald of Ireland.
For this
rewarding bike trip, we have chosen a wonderful variety of quality, select accommodations
that offer a blend of luxury, location and personal hospitality. You will enjoy the delights of stunning settings
and vibrant culture.
Choose
a 6 day or a 9 day version of this trip. You may also select a Charming Inns verions
where we stay in local guesthouses and small private hotels or you may elect the Castle
and Country Lodge verision.
''We
think that Fidelma's obvious pride in her company and its growing
international reputation made a major contribution to our enjoyment.
Coming from Vermont, we realize the importance of living in a stunningly
beautiful part of the world. The Irish people who live on the West Coast
re similarly blessed, and it was a joy to ride through their land and to
meet these wonderful and warm people''.
Richard
& Virgina Munkelwitz, Burlington, VT.
"We appreciate the
extra time you spent organising our beautiful
Anniversary ceremony. We will remember it for the rest of our lives"
