Galway city with Arthur - Myself and my husband had a fantastic tour of Galway city with Arthur McGuire. He showed us lots of things we would not have seen or found otherwise. Arthur is from the Claddagh and wears the famous ring with pride. If you visit Galway, I would recommend you take this tour with him.
