Ireland · BIKE TOURS IN GALWAY
This is the shortlist to send a friend: 10 bike tours in Galway worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Bike Inisheer from Doolin with a guide, round-trip ferry, and tea and scones, plus time on the beach and in the pub.
“Simon was the absolute best tour guide. He had such a passion for the area and he was super knowledgeable.”
Galway by electric bike in a small group, with walkie talkie helmets and fresh e-bikes, covering key sights and the coast.
“Evin! This biking tour is a must! Galway is a small city but this tour ensures you cover a lot of it. Plus it’s the best way to catch the sun when it peaks out through the clouds. You see all of Galways highlights, hidden gems, neighborhoods, as well as beach! Evin was the best. He was so helpful, insightful, and easygoing. A fantastic guide! Book this tour, you’ll be so glad you did!”
Bike Inisheer from Galway with ferry, guided ruins tour, and homemade scones and tea, plus Doolin pub time and Burren stories.
“What an incredible day! Phil picked us up from an easily visible bright orange van in Galway and we felt like we had a full tour within a tour just on the ride to Doolin. He was extremely knowledgeable and charismatic, seamlessly got us to Inisheer and we had a lovely bike tour of the island. It is a hilly island so would only recommend if you are relatively comfortable on a bike (though there are e-bikes available as well). The coffee and scones (with fresh whipped heavy cream o m g) were amazing after the bike ride and it was the perfect length of time for a day trip.…”
Electric fat bikes from Galway to Connemara and Loch Na Fooey, with safety training, private pacing, optional sheepdog demo, and easy stops.
“Tour was run by Martin who was great! Safety was a top concern! Saw parts of the Connemara region countryside most wouldn’t see! Beautiful and enjoyable day. Family of 6 (4 kids in their 20s). E-bikes were easy to operate and made climbing hills doable! Thanks for a great day Martin!!”
Ride Galway by eBike with a small-group guide, pedal-assist power, and local stories from Spanish Arch to Salthill Bay.
“Alex was fantastic! Knowledgeable and personable; he made the experience great. Our group loved the tour and would recommend to anyone!”
Electric fat bike tour from Galway to Spiddal with bogland turf sights and craft village time. Private 4-hour ride with pickup.
“This is an emjoyable e-bike ride through lovely scenery to a nice village with a delicious cafe and many nice craft shops. Martin took very good care of our small crew of three. Safety was his top priority, and he communicated well throughout the ride. I felt very comfortable with the pace and the route even with my 14 year old along.”
Private 4-hour bike tour from Clonbur through Cong Forest and Lough Corrib, with coffee and included lunch for $89.
“Beautiful ride in a lovely countryside and forest. Excellent services: good bike set, welcome coffee and lunch.”
Cruise Galway by eBike for 3 hours, with Bluetooth helmet narration, key sights, and a calm Salthill garden break. Small group, great value.
“Ivan is a fabulously friendly and well informed tour guide, and the electric bike option makes the tour very easy. Not only did Ivan provide great information about the town and it's features, he went WAY over and above and helped us out of a jam when one of our cell phones died. I would not hesitate to recommend this as a great way to see Galway!”
Ride an e-bike scavenger hunt through Galway, solving riddles in the WeWheel app while hitting Salthill, the Spanish Arch, and Galway Cathedral.
“While we signed up for the scavenger hunt, we ended up doing a guided tour, on our request. The centre of Galway has significant traffic at certain times of the day and there are no shoulders on the road to give a bike rider some sense of safety. Alex kindly offered to put us in with a tour going on an hour later. This tour was excellent and Alex ensured that all were as safe as could be. I would highly recommend taking a tour with this company. The scavenger hunt would be likely to be fun but I would only suggest that for people comfortable with biking with some…”
Half-day self-guided Galway e-bike tour with audio narration, smart helmets, and easy pedal assist to see Spanish Arch and the Corrib.
“This was a fun and informative tour. Felix was a great guide. It was raining and cold but we had a great time. Alex was helpful too. We had an hour before the tour and he took around Galway some. When we got back and were soaking wet, he took us to a store so we could buy some new dry clothes. Also gave a great recommendation for lunch at Dough Bros. Pizza was delicious!”
Every kind of Irish day out, and the best of each.
