Overview

Hi! and welcome to the most friendly city on earth (and that's official). The 'Legendary tour' has been running for over a decade now and has been much praised over the years for going well beyond the historical outline of city. We take you on meandering tour around the backstreets of the fine medieval city with a few stops that relate to more modern times. The tour focusses of legends rather than just history and will adapt to appeal the personal interests of the participants. Galway has some fascinating tales that are brought to life through Neil's storytelling. Who can resist a tales of live, pirates, murder and adventuring in new lands? We also take great delight in recommending places to eat and drink that we think we will really appeal to you. You will be part of a group that is never more than 15 people to allow for a more personalised and intimate experience of our city. We hope that you will have a great time, as thousands have done already,

Two thumbs up!

Published on May, 2025

We loved all aspects of this tour with Neal. He was engaging, funny and informative. Highly recommend.

Neil was very kind,...

Published on May, 2025

Neil was very kind, pleasant and a great story teller! He took us through some history of Galway, with one over-arching 3-part story of one of the most famous people from Galway.

Walking tour with family

Published on May, 2025

Neil is friendly and funny. My children were engaged in his stories for the entire tour. They said it was best walking tour they ever had. The timing and information on the tour was perfect for our family of 4. Not too much and not too little. I would recommend a tour with Neil.

Interesting, informative and story telling walking tour

Published on May, 2025

Really interesting story telling, historic and Galway fact based walking tour. Friendly and easy to communicate with. Great tour for all ages even in the Irish rain!it didn’t put him off. We did the tour as a family with two older children and they enjoyed it too. Not too long and some great recommendations at the end

Gallivanting In Galway

Published on May, 2025

Three of us went on this tour and were delighted with our time with Neil. Sure, we saw highlights of the lovely old part of Galway but were also treated to some hidden gems you won’t see on any hop on hop off tour. As a bonus, we heard a multipart story of intrigue and… Well, you’ll have to see for yourself.
