Galway History in Song Walking Tour

Hear Irelands story through Irish songs while walking through Galway city streets.

We will visit Galway port from where so many desperate Galway and Connemara people were forced to leave and hear songs highlighting this story. Then we will visit Spanish Arch, the wonderful Claddagh fishing community, Eglinton Canal, Carrolls, The Dew Drop, Lynch Castle, St Nicholas Church and taste the terrible reality of Oliver Cromwell. Visit old Market location of WoodQuay, see the Corrib river and 1890s railway bridge. Visit Eyre Square and hear about Dargan, Irelands railway hero. Hear about the cattle horse and hay markets here. Also listen to song telling of the Irish working building American Railways.
