Celtic Rider Ireland

"We had an amazing time exploring Ireland. Celtic Rider Ireland has excellent service and equipment. We are definitely going back someday as we only scratched the surface of the beauty of Ireland! I would highly recommend Celtic Rider Ireland to anyone looking to tour on motorcycles."

"Let me start by saying I have been riding motorcycles for more than forty four year. From two stroke three cylinders to four stroke six cylinders. I have done many (ten I think) tours with Paul and his crew and all have been fun and exciting. Have had some fantastic weather and some not so fantastic, that’s Ireland for you. I recentally sold my 2018 Goldwing Tour due to a re accuring left knee injury. I had booked a vacation in Ireland and contacted Paul at Celtic rider to see if he had a smaller machine with less weight as the BMW GS1200s would be problematic for my knee which was improving. Paul gets back to me with the words “CAN AM” I google it and let him know I have never ridden one but I was willing to give it a go. Ten minutes after leaving the rental station I was in love. Semi automatic gear box extremely comfortable seat and tons of storage space. I drove for hours non stop with no butt issues. Driving through the small towns was a treat as you never have to put your feet down, in fact you can take both hands off the bars while stopped at lights and stretch back. The other thing I really loved was I lost all concern for gravel on the roads and in the parking areas. Really liked that and the same when I came across wet roads no issues at all. Don’t get me started on the reverse, which was so handy coming out of parking spaces or making tight u turns on narrow road’s, just brilliant. In a nutshell, easy to get on and off, comfy seat even compared to the Goldwing, loads of storage, reverse, digital easy to read dash, semi auto gearbox. And mostly a very secure, safe ride. On the downside! As nothing is perfect in this world. They attract a lot of attention as they are so cool looking, people want to ask about them and have a closer look. It didn’t bother me at all, in fact I met some lovely people and had some great chats in parking lots. See you next June Paul, sending a deposit soon! A huge thanks to you and your team for pointing me towards the “CAN AM”"

"We had a fantastic experience doing the Wild Atlantic Way self-guided tour via Celtic Rider. Paul Rawlins and his small team put together a first-class experience and every aspect of the trip was thoughtfully planned and executed, including pre-trip background and guidance, airport/hotel transfers, bike pickup and orientation, bike prep, route planning and GPS mapping, lodging choices and reservations, and suggested POIs. We were welcomed at excellent small inns and hotels throughout the two week ride and Pauls' recommendations for food and drink were reliably terrific. And what a route! The scenery varies from serenely beautiful to charmingly rustic to jaw-droppingly magnificent, almost by the hour. Celtic Rider helped us make the most of the Wild Atlantic Way -- we look forward to enjoying the back roads with them again."

"I've been riding for 37 years and our tour with Celtic Rider was the most incredible experience of my life! Paul and Liam are top-notch folks! You could tell each day's mapped out ride had a lot of time put into it by someone that really knows and loves motorcycles and knows and loves Ireland! That someone is Paul. If you leave this world without booking one of these tours with Celtic Rider, you never lived life to the fullest! AMAZING!!!!!!! Greg & Sweet T Arkansas, USA"

"Paul and Liam, Thank you for making our motorcycle trip to Ireland a 10+ ! Everything from the motorcycle to the itinerary and the accommodations were excellent. Truly, we will never forget this experience. Thank you!"
