Electric Bike Tours Ireland
Explore Ireland Effortlessly with Electric Bike Tours
Electric bike tours make cycling in Ireland easier, especially on hills and longer routes. The pedal assist helps you ride comfortably while still enjoying the experience.
You can explore places like Connemara, the Burren, and the Wild Atlantic Way at your own pace.

Electric bike tours in Ireland are cycling holidays using pedal-assist bikes that give you extra support as you ride. You still pedal as normal, but the motor helps with hills, wind, and longer distances, making the overall experience much more comfortable.
Yes. E-bikes are ideal for beginners, as the electric assistance makes hills, wind, and longer distances much more manageable.
No. E-bike holidays in Ireland appeal to a wide range of riders, including travellers who want a gentler way to enjoy Irish landscapes by bike.
Most guests comfortably cycle 40–80 km per day. Range depends on terrain, wind, and how much assistance you use, but in practice it’s rarely an issue. Guests can also top up the battery during the day, for example while stopping for lunch.
Yes. Electric bike tours are especially helpful for couples or groups with mixed fitness levels because the extra support helps balance the riding experience.
Yes. Electric bike tours also include luggage transfers, allowing guests to enjoy the route without carrying heavy bags.
We use high-quality electric bikes with Bosch motors and batteries, known for their reliability and smooth support. The bikes are low-step for easy access, simple to use, and fully set up for touring with panniers. We also give a full demonstration before you start, so you’re comfortable from day one.

Pricing
It depends. But our 3 night tour starts from €800 per person and our 7 nights tours start from €1,500 per person. Luxury tours with castle and country house accommodation start from €2,950. Prices include Trek bike hire, ensuite accommodation, and full Irish breakfast daily. Luggage transfers and e-bike upgrades are available as add-ons.
Every tour includes a quality Trek bike fitted to you personally, ensuite accommodation at hand-picked guesthouses and small hotels, full breakfast each morning, digital navigation with route notes, a day-one local guide briefing, ferry tickets, transfers, luggage transfers (unless otherwise specified) and on-call support throughout.
Luxury tours carry a higher price reflecting the accommodation — historic castles, country manor houses, and boutique hotels rather than guesthouses. Our luxury tours start from €2,950 per person. For guests celebrating a honeymoon, milestone anniversary, or special birthday, most tell us it was worth every cent. Bespoke private luxury tours can be designed around any budget — contact us directly.
Yes — we take a booking payment of €100 per person to secure your booking, with the balance due closer to your start date. Contact us directly to discuss availability and we'll confirm the payment schedule. We accept all major cards including through our secure Stripe payment system.
No hidden costs. Dinners, lunches, and personal spending are not included — you're free to eat where you like each evening, and our route notes include recommendations for the best local restaurants and pubs. The only decisions to make upfront are which bike to choose. Everything else is clear from the start.
How to Book
The best way to start is to email us at tours@greenmarblecycletours.com with the tour you're interested in and your preferred travel dates. We'll check availability, confirm the start date, and if you're happy to proceed, send you a payment request for the booking deposit of €100 per person. Simple as that.
Email us anyway. Tell us your dates, number of people, room requirements (double, twin, or single), and a comfortable daily cycling distance and we'll design a tour around you. We typically come back within 24 hours, though complex itineraries, large groups, or enquiries during our busiest months of February, March, and April may take a little longer.
We accept card payments via Stripe — secure, straightforward, and the most common method. Bank transfer is also available for guests who prefer it, and wire transfers work fine for guests booking from the US. We'll confirm all payment details when we correspond by email and nothing moves forward until you're completely happy.
Final payment dates are linked to your tour start date: April tours by 1 March, May and June tours by 31 March, July tours by 30 April, August tours by 31 May, September tours by 30 June, and October tours by 31 July. We'll remind you well in advance and send a payment request at the right time.
We'll ask for guest heights for correct bike sizing, bike type preference, dietary requirements to pass on to your accommodation, and a contact phone number for the road. We'll ask for these at the right stage of the booking process — you don't need to have everything ready on day one.
Once your deposit is received we confirm your booking and provide advice on what to bring, how to get to the start of your tour, and how to get home from the finish point afterwards. After final payment is received, we send full accommodation details for every overnight stop on your tour.
We reconfirm your day-one meeting time with your local guide for bike fitting and tour briefing. At that meeting we provide a support phone number, walk you through the navigation app, fit and adjust your bike, and make sure you have everything you need before you set off. It's a relaxed, thorough start to the trip.
