5 days in Galway Itinerary

Take a break from the city and head to Connemara National Park & Visitor Centre and Wild Atlantic Way. Salthill Promenade and Michael Davitt Museum are good opportunities to explore the local culture. Get out of town with these interesting Galway side-trips: Drummindoo Stud (in Westport) and National Museum of Ireland - Country Life (in Castlebar). Spend the 20th (Wed) among the memorable landscape of The Burren. There's still lots to do: enjoy the sand and surf at Salthill Beaches, get in touch with nature with Hillwalk Tours, get engrossed in the history at Galway City Museum, and walk around Eyre Square.
