As you step onto the Island, you will immediately grasp what Island life is all about. You will see horses, local farmers. You will hear Irish (or Gaelic) being spoken by the locals and you will smell the freshest air the Atlantic Ocean can provide.
Time to tour the Island by bike! No waiting in line, your guide will have your bike rental taken care of. Your expert guide will show you around the Island. You will experience sunken graveyards, shipwrecks, castles, and much more.
After your guided tour, your guide will bring you to a local cafe that has a reservation for you. No waiting in line here either, just walk in and enjoy! You will absolutely love this cafe by the way. Definitely try the scones!
After lunch, you can enjoy your free time on the Island. People love to go to the pub for a pint, check out the playground with the kids, or simply chill on the beach! You will meet your guide back at the pier where we will board the ferry en route back to Doolin.

Absolutely incredible. If you want to see the Aran Islands, this is the way to do it! We had a member of our party have travel complications which led to us rescheduling and Ollie could not have been more helpful in that process. Once on the island we got bikes and began our tour (we were able to upgrade to an electric bike for my 73 year old mother). Ollie’s tour is informative, filled with great stories and lots of laughter. He has a very easy way about him that makes him feel like a lifelong friend right out of the gates. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking and it was one of my favorite places I’ve ever been. We added on the Cliffs of Moher boat cruise as well, which was such a good deal! You can’t get better views of the cliffs. Also, the Doolin pier is so close that when we finished we were a short ride from getting the aerial view of them as well. It was a day that will not be forgotten. Thanks again Ollie!My mother and I had the pleasure of doing this tour with Eleanor as our guide (hope I spelled the name right). She was just great and so much fun. The tour itself was lovely from beginning to end. The ferry experience was a lot of fun and we saw so much going around with the bikes! The tea and sc...
My mother and I had the pleasure of doing this tour with Eleanor as our guide (hope I spelled the name right). She was just great and so much fun. The tour itself was lovely from beginning to end. The ferry experience was a lot of fun and we saw so much going around with the bikes! The tea and scones at the end were amazing. All around amazing experience with an incredible guide, I highly recommend. Super organized, informative and fun!We booked a private tour with boat tickets, pony car and coffee break at a fair price. It was worth every penny. Our guide was the wonderful Síodhmhaith. She took a lot of time to explain everything. We had a flat tire 8 km before Doolin.

We had a flat tire 8 km before Doolin. Ollie made sure we were picked up and had the tire changed during the tour. A fantastic service.Hands down the best craic in all of our Ireland visit!

Hands down the best craic in all of our Ireland visit! Our group was one of the first to get this tour and we couldn’t think of any improvements. Ollie immediately feels like a friend and his familiarity with the locals gives you a genuine sense of the island’s culture. The sites were informative and fun and there’s plenty of time to shop if you like. The visit with Una is a big highlight; her scones are still the best in all of Ireland. If you’re open to chat, she shares her stories from life before the ferries could even access the island (not THAT long ago!). Five hours might seem long to some, but it goes by in a flash. You’ll wish you had Ollie to show you around the rest of Ireland. Book this tour!
