★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 412 reviews · 2 hours 30 minutes (approx.) · from $42

Ride through central Dublin with guides such as Laura, Stephen, Steven, or Jack, stopping at Dublin Castle, Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, Guinness Gate, Kilmainham, and Christ Church. E-bikes make hills and cobbles easier, but you should be comfortable riding beside city traffic.

“This was a fun experience. The tour was well thought out but I had completed a walking tour the day before so there was more overlap of information than I anticipated. The tour guide did their best to keep everyone safe but the roads in Dublin are a bit unpredictable. One of the brakes on my brothers bike unfortunately wasn't working but he managed around it. I would recommend this tour only for those comfortable on a bike on busy roads.”
