Best not to plan to stay in Shannon

If your flight arrives very early, it is recommended that you take the Bus Eireann Scroll down to bus number 51 direct to Galway city and to spend the day there.

There is a left luggage facility at the Galway train station where you can leave your bags and explore Galway for the day.

There is a lovely pedestrian zone, with music on the streets.  Nice cafes and shops, and a lovely town/city to walk around.  It is located by the sea, so you could also walk along the sea or by the river.

There is nothing attractive or interesting in Shannon, and Galway is a lovely town / city to walk around.

Arrival time at Burren Yoga is between 5:00 and 7:00 pm

The centre will be cleaned from top to bottom to make sure it is ready for our guests to arrive at 5:00 pm.

We ask people to arrive not earlier than 5:00 pm on Friday, as we will be getting everything ready for the retreat, and we may also have to be away from the centre in order to get supplies.
