Bicycle touring company recommendations
 

I'm looking for recommendations for a bicyle tour operator in the west of Ireland. I'm <BR>looking for a company that provides an all-inclusive package with bikes, accomodations, etc. And looking for rides that last 5-10 and are easy to moderate.

I would look at www.backroads.com. From what I hear they offer great trips all over the world and in Ireland.

Kelli,<BR>Look at a thread on this forum titled "Does anyone here take Backroads, B&R, Europed tours?" for some comments on tours in Europe.<BR><BR>http://www.fodors.com/forums/pgMessages.jsp?fid=2&tid=1354039&numresponses=23&s tart=0&searchText=active<BR>

You can also try Butterfield and Butterfield-- A very high clas operation that sometimes uses castles for their overnite accomodations-

FYI - It's Butterfield and Robinson.

Try Lynott Tours. we did an inexpensive bike trip with them in 88.

Andi- thanks for the heads up on <BR> Butterfield and Robinson--Had a brain loss as I was originally writing the 1st post-
