Catalysis of the transfer of a solute or solutes from one side of a membrane to the other according to the reaction: galactose(out) + H+(out) = galactose(in) + H+(in). Catalysis of the transfer of monosaccharide from one side of the membrane to the other. Catalysis of the transfer of a solute or solutes from one side of a membrane to the other according to the reaction: galactose (out) = galactose(in). Catalysis of the transfer of galactose from one side of the membrane to the other. D-galactose is widely distributed in combined form in plants, animals and microorganisms as a constituent of oligo- and polysaccharides; it also occurs in galactolipids and as its glucoside in lactose and melibiose. Catalysis of the transfer of a solute or solutes from one side of a membrane to the other according to the reaction: galactose(out) + Na+(out) = glucose(in) + Na+(in). Catalysis of the transfer of a hexose sugar, a monosaccharide with 6 carbon atoms, from one side of the membrane to the other.
