4 days in Galway Itinerary

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.

Bunratty Castle & Folk Park and Kylemore Abbey & Victorian Walled Garden will appeal to history buffs. Escape the urban bustle at The Lost Valley and Silver Strand. Venture out of the city with trips to Cliffs of Moher (in Liscannor), White Strand Beach (in Miltown Malbay) and Carran Medieval Church (in Carran). There's still lots to do: get to know the fascinating history of The Cong Heritage Trail, explore the fascinating underground world of Pigeon Hole Cave, and contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Corcomroe Abbey.
