MG Ireland 2010
County Galway
29th April - 3rd May
For our Ireland tour this year we are heading West and making our base in the town of Galway, for what we hope will be a few interesting days exploring the Connemara National Park, and the coastline around Galway Bay. Our 4 star hotel will provide the ideal base as we explore the region providing beautiful scenery with historic monuments in equal measure.
Itinerary:
Thursday 29th April: Depart Holyead for Dun Laoghaire on the Stena Line high speed service at 10.25hrs. From Dun Laoghaire drive West past Athlone & Athenry to Galway. An evening welcome barbecue has been organised in the hotel garden.
Friday 30th April: A circular road run has been arranged taking you out along the coast around Galway Bay, where there are views across to the Aran Islands. The route continues to the famous Cliffs of Moher and returns via Ennistymon through the Limestone scenery of the Burren National Park
Saturday 1st May: A further circular road run has been organised taking you to the West coast and around the beautiful Connemara National Park. There will be opportunities to visit Gaelic speaking areas and stop at some beautiful beaches before heading in to the National Park from Clifden to visit the picturesque Kylemore Abbey. A tour dinner with musical entertainment & dancing has been organised for the evening at our hotel.
 Sunday 2nd May: A day to relax and maybe explore the historic town of Galway itself. This can be done on foot, by bus or by car. Some may wish to make use of the facilities at the hotel, including the large swimming pool, whilst others may wish to explore the inlets of Lough Corrib, or the beaches of Salthill & Galway Bay.
Monday 3rd May: Our stay in Galway comes to an end. After breakfast we drive back across to Dublin Port for the crossing to Holyhead at 16.00hrs.
