About this activity

My name is Gerry Grealish, I am a local Nationally qualified guide and owner of Tour & Taste Galway. I have grown up here and love Galway and the west of Ireland. I will take you on a tour through the medieval city of Galway and explore its history and culture using food and drink as a way of telling its story. I will take you to some of my favourite places.

The tour lasts 3.5 hours approx. with a maximum of 12 people on tour, visiting different venues finishing with a visit to a traditional pub.
