GALWAY WALKABOUT If you're visiting Galway and have an hour to pass, why not take a Galway Walkabout? Although Galway Borough is fairly large, the old town of Galway is very suitable for a one to one and a half hour walk, to where Ed Sheeran began his musical career, busking at age 14. You'll also get the story of the world-famous iconic Claddagh Ring. You will learn more about US President John Fitzgerald Kennedy's historic visit to Galway and also discover why Galway is the 'City of Tribes'. On every street and round every turn you'll find entertainment - either live busking and traditional sean nós dancing or discover some interesting historical nuggets. This nice walkabout with me is about discovering relevant nuggets of information about Galway and wider afield.
• Starting in Galway City Centre, Eyre Square's John F Kennedy Park • I will take you through pedestrianise streets of the old town Historic city landmarks such as: -Lynch's castle - St Nicholas' Collegiate Church - Lynch window - The King's Head and Old Malt House - Spanish Arch are taken in with their legends and stories. Find out the significance of Christopher Colombus, Daniel O'Connell The Liberator, 'Humanity Dick' Martyn, James Joyce & Nora Barnacle, and Bishop Michael Browne, to Galway and wider afar. • A brisk walk along the banks of the River Corrib, Europe's fastest flowing river, takes you to Galway's impressive RC Cathedral. Tour can be customized upon request
