Learn about a famous movie with A list actors which he had a small part, filmed in the Clonbur area of Connemara.

2. Take a stroll to the historic Kylemore Abbey built by Mitchel Henry in 1868 for his wife Margaret and family, view the Victorian decor and listen to the audio reciting the life of the Henry family. Travel on a shuttle bus to the Victorian walled gardens and feast your eyes on the 6 acres of beautiful flowers and plants. Our clients also love to walk into the 14th century style neo Gothic church which Mitchel built for his wife Margaret. Finally browse through the gift shop and purchase delicious sauces, jams and chocolates made by the Benedictine order of nuns who have lived at Kylemore Abbey since the early 1900's.

3. Take a hike on the beautiful Diamond hill in Connemara National Park which is 442 metres in height and will be between 1-3 hours in duration to climb depending on how high you would like to walk up this magnificent hill. Most of our clients prefer to hike for one hour.

About Galway

Galway is a harbour city on Ireland's west coast, with a pedestrian old centre, traditional music, a seaside promenade and Connemara just to the west.

Galway stands where the River Corrib meets Galway Bay, and in the Middle Ages it was ruled by fourteen merchant families known as the Tribes, who built its stone houses and quays. The Spanish Arch recalls the trade with Spain, and Eyre Square, the Latin Quarter around Shop Street and Quay Street, and the Claddagh, a former fishing village that gave its name to the Claddagh ring, form the centre. The cathedral, consecrated in 1965, stands by the river.
