There is a saying in Ireland, that 'the west, is best.' Modestly put, and far easier on the ear when spoken in a Galwegian accent, we must admit to agree.
When you walk into Galway and the surrounding Connacht countryside, you get a feeling that you have arrived in the real Ireland. This is generally highlighted for groups arriving in the west after a stay in Dublin. Throughout day and night, the city seems to have an up-beat fiddle-led soundtrack, 'folk' are a lot friendlier, and the Guinness flows like water.
No visit to Galway would be complete without a venture into Connemara or down to the Cliifs of Moher. Tied in with a match fixture, a round of Atlantic links Golf or a Cruise along Moher can be topped up with a rural Pub Lunch. Or try attending for a game in the Spotrsground, the home of Connacht RFC
