1 hour 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: German and 1 more

Join me on my walking tour off the beaten track as we explore, admire and are inspired by more than twenty murals in Galway City. Find out more about the artist nicknamed the ‘Galway Banksy’. Which artist was retweeted by Cardi D? Who is inspired by Kandinsky and Joseph Albers? What are the up-and-coming artists doing in Galway? Other artists are inspired by the oceans deep and yet another’s style is influenced by cartoons. This tour is like no other in Galway.
