Connemara, Galway and Mayo

Recognised by Lonely Planet as one of Europe’s must-do cycling trips, the Connemara Safari offers a perfect mix of adventure, culture, and stunning scenery, making it an unforgettable experience for riders of all levels.

These tours are expertly designed to showcase the area’s diverse landscapes, rich heritage, and exceptional cycling routes, ensuring an immersive journey for every participant.

Cyclists can look forward to exploring iconic destinations such as Westport, Croagh Patrick, Delphi Valley, Killary Harbour, Kylemore Abbey, and the renowned Sky Road near Clifden. Along the way, the routes traverse expansive boglands, serene coastlines, and secluded beaches, all while offering panoramic views of the rugged mountains and shimmering waters that define Connemara’s natural beauty.

The adventure doesn’t end there. A highlight of the tour is the ferry ride to the Aran Islands, where visitors can explore the dramatic hill fort of Dún Aengus, perched high above the Atlantic. Spending the night on the island allows for a deeper appreciation of its tranquil charm and unique culture before returning to the mainland.

Connemara is a land steeped in myth and poetry, celebrated for its rugged granite landscapes, crystal-clear lakes, and meandering rivers. Each day of the tour offers fresh scenery, from coastal rides in the morning to quiet bog roads with mountain vistas in the afternoon.
