Free tour of Galway City (Chiefs to Presidents)

This isn’t your average Galway tour. We don’t treat you like a tourist — you’re part of the city’s story now. Galway has welcomed countless visitors over the centuries, and each left a mark. Our tour reflects that. We’ll visit places like the Spanish Arch, where early foreign traders helped shape our culture, and explore darker chapters like Cromwell’s invasion. But Galway didn’t just survive — it thrived. Through emigration, rebellion, and revival, we became a vibrant, creative hub on the Atlantic’s edge. This tour is designed to show you the real Galway — the one locals know, the one history books skim over. Every stop we’ve chosen has meaning, and many you won’t find on other tours. It’s bold, different, honest — and full of the stories that made Galway what it is today. Come walk with us, and see the city the way it should be seen.
