A slice of Heaven
Inis OIrr is a magical place. A sense of peace just washed over us as we explored the stone walled paths, 360degree views from where ever we stood. Una and John welcomed us warmly, paid attention to every detail to make our experience on the island meaningful. Have you ever felt like you’ve known a person your whole life the minute you meet. Well that’s how all four of us felt the minute we met. History of Inis Oirr came alive from now to the Bronze Age. Una was born and raised on the island, and returned to raise her family with her husband John . Deep roots, deep passion for the island , knowledge rooted in personal history and extensive study. She really shared the spirit of the island . Not to mention sharing delicious home made baked goods, hearty soup and sandwiches in her cozy tea shop. The weather was glorious , blue sky , bright sunshine. I would give 5 ++++ stars!Go dtí go gcasfaimid arís, go mbeannaí Dia duit féin agus do mhuintir!

Essential for visiting the island.
Very good. They are right next to the port where the ferry drops you off. The bike pickup and return were very fast. It is essential to rent bikes to visit the island's points of interest in the time available before the ferry returns. There are bikes and helmets of all sizes and types (mountain bike, city bike, with and without a basket, etc.).

E-bikes are a must!
Great way to see the island! The electric bike were worth the extra money, there are quite a few hills that we saw people walking bikes up. Spend the money. You will see more of the island and have time for a beer before you leave if you do just a day trip like we did.

Aran Island E-bikes rental in Inishmore.
Aran Island E-bikes were good, be sure to test it before taking it for the day. The staff were awesome. The roads, paths, and trails are busy with people, horse drawn carts/wagons, vans, and buses.

Beautiful day for a bike ride!
Views were amazing. Just needed more time to bike the whole island and see all of the sights. Bikes were in good shape and well maintained.

Good service
Cycling is a great way to see Inisheer. Hire bicycles were comfortable and helmets were provided. Road are narrow, so care is needed. Warning signs are in place for steep down-hills. Lots to see on the island which is very peaceful

Great Customized Tour
We had a great tour of Inishmore with Gabriel. We spoke the day prior and I informed him of my wife's limited mobility and he customized the tour to our needs and threw in a few special stops for us. The tour was a little pricey, but given that we were only on the island for a few hours and may never return, it was worth it to make sure we saw everything we wanted to see. Highly recommend this tour if you're doing a day trip to Inishmore and want to see as much as possible.

Great Family Tour of Inishmore, the largest of the Aran Islands
Gabriel Faherty was an awesome tour guide he has lived on Inishmore all his life and comes from a long line of full-time residents there so he knows everything and was so entertaining with his tour of the island for our family. Gabriel also runs Aran Islands Goat Cheese Company which makes award winning goat cheese--he was kind enough to show us around the cheese production facility as part of our tour and even gave us samples which were delicious. There are lots of longer tours but our 2.5 hour tour was really plenty to get a good feel for Inishmore.

Aran Islands Bike Rental-the Best!
Absolutely the best way to see the island. The rental company is directly at the end of the pier. It was a little confusing since there is no company name listed when you book the reservation. Pick up and drop off run very smoothly. Electric bikes are the only way. Skip the regular bike rental! Island is not flat.

E-bike It!
E-biking the island is the bomb! Staff was friendly and responsive. Ask about the kill switch before you hit the road. Can accidentally trigger it when moving the bike against a wall.

All right.
Easy to book, collect and return. Bicycles in perfect condition! The best way to visit the island. Electric bike imperative, it goes up and down!

Great tour and excellent scones, lunch and tour guide!!
Our host John was quite remarkable. His knowledge of the island is incredible as well as the welcome and the lunch. The horse drawn carriage ride and narration was fun and educational. The sights, as well as the pint in the Flaherty Bar were amazing!! I would recommend this tour to anyone!

E-Bike excellent way to get around the island
I recently rented an electric bike to cycle around the island, and it was an outstanding experience. From start to finish, everything about the rental process and the ride itself was perfect.
The staff member was incredibly friendly and helpful. He provided a thorough overview of how to operate the electric bike, ensuring that I felt comfortable and confident before setting off. He also gave me a detailed map of the island with recommended routes and must-see spots, which was invaluable.
The electric bike was in excellent condition – clean, well-maintained, and easy to use. It had a powerful battery that lasted the entire day, and the bike handled hills and rough terrain effortlessly. The added pedal-assist feature made it possible to cover more ground without feeling exhausted, which was perfect for a full day of exploration.
Cycling around the island on an electric bike was a fantastic way to see everything. The freedom to explore at my own pace, combined with the ability to easily tackle longer distances and inclines, made for an incredibly enjoyable day. I was able to visit the worm hole which was on a fairly rocky road.
The island itself is breathtaking, with stunning coastal views. The electric bike allowed me to fully appreciate the beauty of the island, stopping whenever I wanted to take photos or simply soak in the scenery. It was an environmentally friendly way to explore, and I felt good knowing I was reducing my carbon footprint.
Renting the electric bike was not really value for money at €40 each however it included a helmet, and the map, and the bike's performance exceeded my expectations. Considering the amount of ground I was able to cover and the unique experience it provided, it was worth the cost in the end.
My day cycling around the island on an electric bike from was one of the highlights of my trip. The combination of excellent service, top-quality bike, and the stunning island scenery made it an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting the island – it's the perfect way to explore and enjoy everything the island has to offer.Thank you to the rental man next to the Aran sweater shop in the village for providing such a wonderful service. I can't wait to return and do it all over again!

Tour of Inishmore
We had a great time on Gabriel's tour of the island. We toured the island by minibus stopping at points of interest, hiked to Dun Aonghasa, did some shopping, and met Gabriel's goats! It was a great way to get the local perspective and see the island with zero stress.
