Galway Celtic Mythology Tour

This is the only mythology-focused walking tour in Galway, crafted with care, folklore, and storytelling passion. Galway is a city of stories, and on this Celtic folklore tour, we’ll follow the path of Ireland’s legendary storytellers. Beginning at Saint Nicholas church, we’ll walk through the city’s medieval heart, hearing how Galway got its name from a tragic tale and uncovering how the Celts wove meaning into every stone, ritual, and tale. We’ll explore the ancient pagan world, where druids, bards, and wise women shaped belief and identity through sacred ceremonies and oral knowledge, wisdom that still echoes in Irish traditions today. Then, step carefully into the world of faeries and the Otherworld. These aren’t your fairy tale sprites, they’re the mysterious Aos Sí, feared and revered in equal measure. Their stories still whisper through Galway’s winding lanes.
