Fantastic little sea-side town. Very friendly locals. Excellent Pedestrian street, heaps of shops and markets. Food stalls and entertainers. Had the best time in this city, Nightlife was a lot of fun. Great locals
Insider Tip:Walk everywhere, and talk to people, their very friendly, and have no problem answering questions. Also, 'Maxwells' a resteraunt on the pedestrian road with the shops is a must. Bring a jearsy though, a bit chilly
Galway is a cute college town and while there is not much to do sight-seeing wise, it is a very beautiful and relaxing small city.
Insider Tip:Take a day trip to see the Cliffs of Moher.
If you are interested in Irish culture and enjoy a awesome natural view, you must not miss Galway,. Joining the tour go to Cliff of moher and The Burren, you properly will obtain a wonderful experience there.
I didn't stay long enough to do much sight seeing, but if you have the time during the day and at night - you must do the free walking tour and the pub crawl. Use Galway Pub Crawl.
Insider Tip:After the walking tour - you can get a discount on the pub crawl ticket. Do it......You will meet so many fun people.
Ireland is a very easy country to get around thanks to an extensive bus service which connects all major towns and cities. It also has a country wide rail service but for most journeys the bus is more flexible, frequent and most importantly, at least 50% cheaper than taking the train. It’s not a big country so you can easily make your way to the major cities but it certainly makes for an action packed seven days. Where better to begin your speedy tour than in ‘Dublin’s Fair City’ - the fun filled capital of the Emerald Isle. As well as the host of attractions on offer, the city can really only be appreciated by those who truly immerse themselves in the culture and there’s no better way to do this than by frequenting the host of the pubs and restaurants on offer. Sip on a pint of Guinness in its native home while listening to some Irish music or sampling traditional cuisine and you’ll know what we mean.
