City of the Tribes
A major hub for visitors exploring Ireland's western regions, Galway serves as a city of art and culture, renowned for its vibrant lifestyle and numerous festivals.Take a break from Galway with a short trip to Bunratty Castle in Bunratty, about 1h 25 min away. There's lots more to do: explore the striking landscape of Connemara National Park, don't miss a visit to Quay Street, admire the landmark architecture of Galway Cathedral, and get to know the fascinating history of Salthill Promenade.
To see photos and more tourist information, refer to the Galway vacation planner.
If you are flying in from Germany, the closest major airports are Dublin Airport, Shannon Airport and Cork Airport. In September, plan for daily highs up to 20°C, and evening lows to 13°C. Cap off your sightseeing on the 10th (Sun) early enough to travel back home.
