Lovely town
Galway is much better than Dublin. The town is so quiet and lovely. And the breathtaking view of cliffs of moher and the Atlantic.
Considered by many to be the Cultural Capital of Ireland, Galway is the place to visit to experience Irish culture at its best. The city is on the verge of the 'Gaeltacht' region, where Irish is the language of choice amongst locals, and here you'll find the Ireland you know from the postcards. Then in its pubs you can listen to traditional Irish musicians playing their 'bodhrans' and other traditional Irish instruments. It is Ireland's most vibrant city, and this is only added to by the constant flow of festivals taking place throughout the year.

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
