Images Of Galway

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.

    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.

    Excellent

    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.

    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.
