Hoogtepunten

Kay is a Galway native, passionate about the history of Galway City. She enjoys sharing her love of the city with groups, bringing them along the historical streets and sites. The walking tour starts in the centre of Galway's Eyre Square and continues along the lively city streets, stopping off to gain insight into the cultural and historical significance of some key sites, and concludes at the iconic Spanish Arch. The short 90 minutes tour gives an overview of the city and highlights areas that are worth revisiting at a later stage. Operating two tours per day, open to individuals and groups

Goed om te weten

Verzamelpunt
We meet tourists in the middle of the main square called Eyre Square, where there is a bronze statue of a writer called Padraig O Conaire and there is a panel of information in front of the statue. I will forward you a photo of same in the next email. I don't meet the tourists in their hotels.

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.

Top-ranked sights in Galway: Cliffs of Moher, The Burren, Galway Bay.
