Galway Gary - We loved hearing the history of Galway, as well as interesting fun facts, like where Ed Sheeran would busk. Gary was very knowledgeable, and he really made the walking tour fun and educational at the same time. We highly recommend him!

Good walking tour to downtown Galway! - Gary was a very good tour guide. Brought us to some good highlights of the downtown district. Only criticism is the tour took longer than we expected and felt afterward there was ad not to see in Galway city center. Still, his enthusiasm was exceptional and enjoyable!!
