Description

A small-group experience for curious travellers drawn to Ireland’s ancient Celtic roots.

Explore Galway at an easy pace, with time to ask questions, soak up the atmosphere, and enjoy personalised recommendations for the rest of your trip, tailored to your interests.

Step into a city where the Otherworld still feels close. As we walk, you’ll hear Irish storytelling in its natural habitat: myths and legends woven into real places—whispers carried by the river, echoes in medieval stone, and memories that cling to old walls.

Meet the Gods and Goddesses behind the lore, trace the symbols locals still recognise, and see how Galway’s living folklore sits right alongside its creative, modern spirit.

You’ll finish understanding why Galway is vibrant, creative and unlike anywhere else in Ireland: full of stories, characters and traditions that are still very much alive.

A very special tour that we highly recommend

My husband and I are very interested in Celtic culture, history and legends and this tour was well above our expectations!! Candela is a great guide, really passionate about the subject, who told us many stories and make us discover Galway in a different way. More than 2 hours of visits that transported us to another world and made us dream. We highly recommanded tour !
