Donegal tours

Things to do in Donegal

It may be remote - but that doesn't mean Donegal has led a life of isolation. The town's Gaelic name translates as 'fort of the foreigners,' in reference to the Vikings who scoured these shores in search of silver and gold. Today's visitors will find treasure of a different sort: a charming town filled with friendly locals, surrounded by stunning scenery. Take a private Donegal tour and explore this corner of Ireland with a local guide. Start at the Diamond, Donegal's central public plaza, and eavesdrop on the latest gossip. Follow your guide down the quaint streets until you find the perfect lunch spot. After eating like a king, rub shoulders with the ghosts of royalty at Donegal castle. Those seeking ancient wisdom should arrange a guided visit to the Creevykeel burial site and the balancing stones of Kilclooney Portal. More interested in the natural than the supernatural? Your local guide can drive you along the winding coastal road to view towering cliffs and deserted beaches.
