Cruising through Cork - Our guide was super knowledgeable about Cork’s history and many other things related to the city. I thought three hours may be too long, but the ride passed by so fast because it was so interesting! I’d do it again in the future for sure:)

Seeing Cork on two wheels is grand. - Davey was super knowledgeable about Cork history and the growth of the city. His bikes were great - very good condition, easy to ride, a helmet and safety vest included. I love bike tours of cities because you see so much more of a place than you would if walking. Cork has a fair number of dedicated bike lanes, cars are considerate and drive tons slower along the narrow streets than in a US city. We learned a lot ! Thanks Davey.

Great introduction to Cork - Really enjoyable, informative, and friendly. Provided a great introduction to the city and points of interest. Very knowledgeable on the history of the city. The only downside was lack of clear directions on the parts of the tour when on roads, especially if group includes nervous cyclists.
