This was a fun tour to not only get to know the highlights of Galway history, but also to taste a bit the city via drink and food! Barry was our guide and he was fun, informative, and fit our group dynamic beautifully. We lent him our group’s whisper quiet headsets, and it I think made the tour that much better, as we were a larger group, and no one missed a word.Barry is the man. He was fun, cheery, informative and a pleasure to be around. Our family enjoyed the awesome tour. Thanks for everything Barry! -Benjamin (NH) USA
