Informazioni sull’esperienza
The story of Dublin comes alive as you explore the city on either a push bike or an electric bike. This 2.5-hour small group activity makes it possible for you to enjoy the sights and sounds of Dublin in a way that immerses you in Dublin life.

The tour is designed for small groups (a maximum of 12 people), meaning that the tour is tailored in its approach, allowing for lots of time to ask questions. With the tales your guide has to tell, you most definitely will not be bored! There is no better way to explore a city than by cycling.
