Accommodation: Is on a twin sharing basis in
a mixture of family run Hotels and guest houses with breakfasts
included. On booking we need to know whether sharing will
be on a twin (two beds) or double (one bed) basis. Due
to the isolated nature of several of the places we stay
in, we cannot guarantee the availability of single room
accommodation. For people coming on their own we will
twin share them with another single person on the tour.
In exceptional cases we may be able to provide one single
room at a €185 supplement for the week. This is
strictly on a request basis only. (the supplement for
the Glens of Antrim tour is £135.00)
Distances: The average
cycling distance is an easy 30m (45km) with longer routes
being available each day. The safaris are suitable for
adults of all ages and fitness levels but the tours are
not suited for children under 13 years of age. The Ring
of Kerry, the Highlands of Donegal and the Derry air tours
have more hills than the other routes.
Meals: The guide will recommend
a lunch stop each day where a snack lunch will cost between
€7 and €10 A group evening meal is also organised
by the guide each night which costs between €15
and €20.
