We loved the Aran Islands bike tour. The e-bikes were a bit finicky but definitely the right call, as the hills were steep and we didn't want to miss a thing. I don't remember our tour guide's name but he was a ginger fella who used to be an art teacher--and he was GREAT! So funny, so warm, and told great stories. I also saw him go above and beyond to make it up to a couple who got a bad tour with someone else; taking them on his own to the top sites and leaving his own tea and scones behind. We got caught in a torrential rain the last few minutes of our bike ride and he made sure we took the right turns and made it to the tea shop. Could not have asked for better!
