Activity itinerary

Lynch's Castle

We take time to take in this magnificent building with its strange tale of a monkey who came to the rescue of a family facing disaster

The Spanish Arch

Our famous Spanish arch, but who travelled through here, maybe in search of whole new worlds? and that Ed Sheran fella may also get a mention with his 'Galway Girl'

Quay Street

The center of Galway's giant tourism magnet. We will seek out a great Claddagh ring shop around here and make some recommendations to get some great food and drink

Eyre Square Centre

There is so much pack into this square from JFK to Irish writers and transatlantic adventurers.

Hall of the Red Earl

See where Galway began with the invading Norman setting up shop in the town.

Eyre Square Centre

A city wall hidden the shopping center, only in Galway!

Nora Barnacle House Museum

We pass by Ireland's smallest museum. It's dedicated to Nora Barnacle, the inspiration and literary muse of James Joyce.

River Corrib

The mighty river of our town may be short...but it packs a punch well beyond it's weight. Discover some of the interesting buildings that line the length of the river.

The Long Walk

The 'old long walk' is the most iconic and picturesque view in town. It's been sung about many times. We take a few minutes to take in the panorama and learn a little about its hidden history.
