On this day we embark into what's described as the crown in Donegal's jewel. We prepare for a day of wonder, incredible beauty and deep history, on the Inishowen Peninsula in North west Donegal. We will delve deep into history while visiting ancient forts, Castle ruins, Cultural sites, not to mention the breath-taking scenery, before making our way to the most northerly part of Ireland. This is not just a job to me, my biggest passion is home. That's why I want to make you feel what it was like living in Ireland 200 years ago by visiting these places and listening to our stories. I will explain the history of the area in detail and can offer a unique insight into the ongoing peace process. This tour focuses on our country history, culture, and politics but I also put across my own personal experience having grown up during "the troubles" in the north of Ireland. This will be a tour you will be talking about for years!
On this tour we depart Derry city, and cross the border into the Beautiful Donegal, and we make our way to high ground where the majestical fort which is "An Grianan of Aileach" sits. On this hilltop we take in the mind-blowing panoramic views on the Inishowen Peninsula before we walk to the fort and smell the history of 2000 years. It's so beautiful even St Patrick is believed to have visited here! From here we travel through the Inishowen peninsula towards "Fort Dunree" where we wander around this aged military camp and learn of the local military History. Onwards we travel to "Doagh Famine Village where we will meet Pat! This man is a fascinating person to listen to, we will learn about the local life, and how he grew up on the site. He will tell us tales of life in Ireland many years ago from times of the Great Famine, to present day Ireland. Finally, we make our way to the most northerly point on the Island of Ireland "Malin Head" before making our way back to Derry. Customization possible!
