Frequently Asked Questions

I don't want to ride a bike. Can I still do this tour?

Yes! If you do not wish to cycle, you can take a tractor-drawn trailer tour at no extra cost. Please note that the tractor tour is a shorter experience (about 50 mins) but this just means you will have some extra free time to explore at leisure.

I'm prone to getting seasick. Should I be concerned?

While the ferries have undergone recent upgrades resulting in a smoother and quicker ride (approx. 15/20 mins), we understand that some people might be more susceptible to seasickness. If you’re worried about this, we recommend considering taking a non-drowsy medication like Dramamine to ease any symptoms. Of course, we’re not medical professionals, so it’s up to you to decide if that’s a suitable option for you. But rest assured, we’ll do our best to make your trip as comfortable as possible!

Can I see the Cliffs of Moher from the boat?

En route from Doolin to Inisheer, you can kinda see them off in the distance. However, you can add a Cliffs of Moher Cruise to your experience at checkout for an additional €15 per person. The Cliffs of Moher Cruise starts is an approx. 50 mins in duration.

Are the bike rides gonna be a real workout?

Not at all! This tour is all about having fun, not sweating it out. We’ll tackle the easy hills on our bikes and walk up the tricky ones. And if you’re not feeling up for the challenge, we do have a limited number of eBikes available for an extra €30 per person. So, come join us for a leisurely ride and enjoy the scenic beauty of the island!
