    We had a great time with Michael from Derry. He is passionate & exciting. He taught us a lot by sharing interesting anecdotes & answering our questions. These explanations were very clear & accessible. He was able to transmit to us with great generosity his experience and his knowledge. We were very lucky to meet him & to have taken this tour with him. We recommend this visit to everyone, which will remain memorable for us!

Best Tours and Activities in Derry | Unforgettable Experiences

Derry, also known as Londonderry, is a vibrant city in Northern Ireland, full of character, charm, and history. With its well-preserved city walls, lively pubs, and friendly locals, it's a place where the old and new blend seamlessly. Stroll through cobbled streets, soak in river views, and experience a cultural scene that surprises at every turn. Derry is a great starting point for exploring the Causeway Coast, but its own stories and spirit make it truly unforgettable.

A Glimpse into the Past

Derry's origins trace back to the 6th century, but it is best known for its impressive 17th-century walls, which remain largely intact. The city played a significant role in Irish history, especially during the Siege of Derry in 1689 and more recently, the modern period known as The Troubles. Today, monuments and murals across the city tell tales of resilience and hope.

When to Go

Spring and summer (April to September) offer the mildest weather, longer daylight, and plenty of outdoor events and festivals. However, Derry is charming all year round, with its autumn colors and winter festivities adding a special touch to each season.

How do I get around in Derry?

Most attractions are within walking distance, especially inside the city walls. There is also a reliable bus network for trips farther out, and taxis are readily available.

What should I not miss?

The historic city walls, the Peace Bridge, the Museum of Free Derry, and a walk along the River Foyle are must-see highlights. Don’t miss the murals of the Bogside area for a deeper understanding of the city's recent history.
