We can also enjoy its lively riverside promenade and local atmosphere, characteristic of a town with a rich trading and river heritage.

We then continue to Galway, known as the "City of the Tribes" in reference to the fourteen Anglo-Norman merchant families who dominated its political and economic life between the 14th and 17th centuries.
