Prepare to be charmed as we walk the peaceful canal, where we'll immerse ourselves in the peaceful, scenic views. We'll then stop to weave some fascinating tales, each one stirred by the ancient whispers of the River Corrib.
Galways Westend
This is a truly authentic Galway spot, where the scent of diverse cuisines blends with the lively, magical hum of traditional music from cozy pubs. We'll share our top recommendations and local insights to help you craft the perfect evening plans here!
Claddagh
Our journey continues to Claddagh Quay, where a magnificent, wide view of Galway Bay unfolds before us. Here, we'll discover the Bay's deep Celtic and Anglo-Norman roots, get a perfect peek at the river mouth, and might even spot some friendly seals and playful dolphins before we delve into enchanting tales of ancient shapeshifters from the sea and the romantic origins of the Claddagh Ring.
River Corrib
Our walk along the captivating canal of the River Corrib begins at Wolftone Bridge, leading us north to the iconic Salmon Weir Bridge. From here, we're almost back at the magnificent Galway Cathedral, before veering into the vibrant, leafy grounds of the University campus.
National University of Ireland-Galway (UCG)
Our tour culminates at the majestic Quadrangle, the University of Galway's oldest and most iconic building. Here, we'll uncover fascinating tales literally carved in its stone, before venturing into the more mysterious: scary rumors of monsters and fairies lingering deep within Irish forests. You'll not only learn how to protect yourselves from these mischievous beings but also how to foster friendship with the elusive Good Folk.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
