Galway the 'city of the tribes' is a costal town located on the West coast of
Ireland's peninsula. It is the largest city in the west coast of Ireland. The city
has not lost its charm openness and integrity that enchants visitors . Its winding
medieval streets enlivened with buskers, Galway has changed over the years,
been revitalised, polished, painted and flower bedecked - with ambivalent feelings.
Another gem in Galway's crown is the little seaside village of Salthill 2km away
where Galway Bay can be seen in its loveliest shades of blue and green, gently
lapping against the beach with the Clare hills smudged like an impressionistic
painting in the morning mist along her horizon. The famous Aran Islands located
30KM from the coast of Galway city is a must on a visit to the west.

Each year as winter is barely over, Galway slips into party form. From the city's
February music festival to the two Oyster Festivals which close the season in
September the parties continue at the rate of at least one a month. These
events cover everything from racing to literature, taking in country music, all k
inds of arts and of course, lots of oysters on the way. When it comes to sports,
Galway me and women always feature in the national final stages in both hurling
and Gaelic football - this is a welcome boast to the city and creates a
marvellous party atmosphere win lose or draw! 
 

While you are visiting the West of Ireland, an ideal way to visit or view the main
sights and attractions it has to offer - without fear of getting lost or missing out
on anything - is by means of an organised tour. There are several companies
operating out of Galway, who specialise in doing just that. On the majority of
tours you will be accompanied by a guide who will inform you of the history,
folklore and any other related peculiarities associated with the tour. So whether
by luxury coach (by timetable) or indeed by taxi (at your leisure), the wonders
of the West await you. Just sit back and be taken on a journey of a lifetime.
