Today is International Tourist Guide Day - and local tour guides marked it with a special walk around the city.

The day is celebrated on February 21st every year in more than 70 countries across the world.

The event raises awareness of tourist guides as ambassadors, and highlights the important work they do in shaping tourists positive impressions.

Today's walk started from University of Galway and travelled along Eglinton Canal towards the Claddagh.
