Things to do

The Warm, Wild, Wonderful West !
Galway is a city, a county, and an experience to be savoured and remembered.

The historic city of the tribes dances to a beat uniquely it’s own. There is a certain chemistry and vibrancy to this friendly University City, which many delight in, and few forget.

Music, festivals, horse racing, pubs, restaurants, shops, theatres and most of all Galway people, combine to create this atmospheric mediaeval city of culture.

From this pulsating heart the rest of the county flows. Galway Bay, immortalised in song, its beauty unchanging.

Scenic Gaeltacht areas including the Aran Islands. Connemara, with the picturesque town of Clifden as its capital.

Mountains, castles and stone walls, banks of turf, long sandy beaches, clear lakes, joyful leaping streams and flowing rivers. Delightful countryside punctuated by pretty villages, and traditional pubs.
