Galway — 3 nights

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.You'll explore the less-touristy side of things at Burren National Park and Royal Abbey of Cong. Your cultural itinerary includes sights like Ashford Castle and Poulnabrone Dolmen. Change things up with these side-trips from Galway: Burren Birds of Prey Centre (in Ballyvaughan) and Killary Fjord (in Leenane). There's still lots to do: contemplate the waterfront views at Galway Bay and take your sightseeing to a higher altitude at Croagh Patrick.
