Join the only mythology-focused walking tour in Galway and let the echoes of the past guide you on this unforgettable journey of magic and mystery. Step into a magical journey, not just a tour!
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.
