What to expect
Your guide will pick you up from your Belfast hotel or port and drive you north across the border to Derry in a comfortable Mercedes. Once there, you'll spend the morning and early afternoon exploring on foot—learning how the Troubles shaped the city's identity through the Bogside's political murals and the narrow lanes within the ancient walls. You'll visit the cathedral, Guildhall, and Free Derry Corner, stopping for photographs. After lunch (at a restaurant of your choice), you'll complete a full circuit of the walls, taking in the 16th-century cannon and the Peace Bridge. The return journey includes a final stop at a high-altitude pub where you can reflect over a drink.
