Inishmór Getting there & around

Getting around

Aran Cycle Hire (61132; per day €10), near the pier, hires out sturdy bikes, which it’ll deliver to your accommodation anywhere on the island. You can also bring your own bicycle on the ferry for free.

Year-round, numerous minibuses (tours €10) greet each ferry arrival and offer a 2½-hour island tour that provides a good overview of the main sights.

To see the island at a gentler pace, pony traps (Mar-Nov) with a driver are available for trips between Kilronan and Dún Aengus; the return journey costs between €60 and €100 for up to four people. If the pony traps are not waiting by the pier, walk to the tourist office to ask where they’re stationed.
