Like to buy? Wolfgang will set you up: https://www.fahrrad-ro.de/index.html

I don't know about Ireland. But he's the European Santana distributor, so if you don't want to go to Germany, I'm sure he can work something out. Last time I saw him, he was riding a triple up a hill at a pretty fast clip, and he mostly speaks English.

Yup, +1 on Santana Europe/Wolfgang in Rosenheim, Germany (between Munich and Salzburg, AT). From what I've seen, he has a lot of experience in the 3+ seater bikes. We spent a day with one of his tandem weekends in Germany years ago, and there were quite a few triplets and quads.

Looks like a new Santana Cabrio lists for 12000+ Euro on their website: https://www.santana-tandem.com/en/ta...y-tandems.html

Take a holiday to the USA and buy one here, either used or new, and you'll likely save more than enough to pay for your trip.

Circe Circe Triplet

Have a look at Circe Cycles Helios Triplet; designed and built in the UK.
