Derrigimlagh Bog

Derrigimlagh Bog
Hire a bike in Clifden and explore this otherworldly landscape of blanket bog. Amidst the unique scenery of peatland and tiny lakes lies evidence of two remarkable events of 20th century history - a trans-Atlantic radio station built by Marconi more than a century ago, and a memorial marking the site of Alcock and Brown’s crash landing, following the first non-stop flight across the Atlantic.

Galway City

Galway is one of Ireland’s most charming cities. Brimming with rich Celtic and Spanish heritage, a vibrant art scene and a long list of festivals, this city is small enough to visit on foot, but eventful enough to inspire a return visit. Explore its picturesque medieval streets, limestone buildings, colourful docks and impressive landmarks such as The Cathedral, the Spanish Arch and St. Nicholas Collegiate Church. Wind down in a cosy pub and revel in some lively traditional music. See ArrivalGuides' guide to Galway for more insider tips.
