The Claddagh ring experience takes in some of the main sights of Galway with a visits to a Claddagh ring workshop and one of the more famous Claddagh ring jewellers. (NOTE: Visit to a maker is unavailable due to COVID 19 restrictions at the moment).After passing through the stunning Latin quarter and Spanish arch areas of Galway we see some of the works of Richard Joyce, the hero of the Claddagh ring legend and maker (probably) of the first Claddagh ring sold commercially.

After few tales of the folklore of the Claddagh we head up into the village itself. In Katie's cottage, a re-built Claddagh cottage we can enjoy a coffee or tea and a cake (included) in authentic surroundings.

Galway City is a compact city well suited to this leisurely stroll through a medieval, picturesque masterpiece.
Other things to note
The walking is very gentle, although the walk up to Katies cottage takes approx 10 mins. Those with reduced mobility may wish to book a taxi to return to town
