I am a father and husband who has lived in Derry all my life and have wonderful childhood memories growing up as the youngest of a family of 8. I recall magical family holidays in County Donegal. It gives me the greatest pleasure to share these amazing hidden gems with visitors. I pride myself in offering personalized and customized tours to clients fortunate enough to visit my local area. Having grown up through the troubles, my wife and I raised our three children, thankfully, during more peaceful times. As a family of five, we created life long memories with weekends 'adventuring'. We explored the length and breadth of our 'wee' Island, North and South, being excited by the breathtaking views in all weather's. Adventuring up mountains and through rivers and valleys. Visiting Castles, monuments, beaches and just simply being together. We loved delving into the legends and folklore of the local areas and now with my children grown, I am excited to continue my own adventures only this time with you as my guest. Re-creating our family adventures and providing opportunities for you to make life long memories. I am proud to show off my City and surrounding areas and proudly highlight the growth, resilience and character of the Derry people. I am proud of our history. As a descendant of Red Hugh O'Donnell the history of our clans and island was of great relevance and interest to me growing up. I am delighted to be able to share this with my clients young and old. Of Course I have the qualifications and professional experience to compliment my personal lived experiences. Having 20 years experience as a professional driver, my company was synonymous with the Derry City of Culture 2013 events. I was honored to transfer our visiting VIPs, DJs and artists during an amazing year and was involved in the official opening of our Peace Bridge and have never looked back. Almost 10 years later I specialize in executive transfers, tours, weddings and tailor made chauffeur services to suit our corporate and VIP clients. I am proud to offer a Legenderry professional service based in our Legenderry City guaranteeing my clients a professional reliable and confidential service every time. Creating memories, adventures and laughter is so important to me and I look forward to adventuring for a long time to come. .World host .P.S.V Driving licence holder 20 years .P.S.V Vehicle licence holder .D.O.E approved .Fully Licence operator .No restrictions.

Overview of your Londonderry tour

There are so many stunning sights so not time to waste! Leaving the City of Derry, travel the short distance to Donegal in a luxurious, fully air conditioned, Mercedes V Class MPV. Relax and enjoy complimentary water, WIFI and snacks. Our First stop is to experience the breathtaking views from An Grianan Ailaeach (Ring Fort dated back to 1700 B. C) and St Patrick's Holy Well. Travel along the Lough Swilly through Buncrana to Dunree Fort and Military Museum see the SS Laurentic memorial before travelling onwards and upwards over Mamore Gap. Prepare to be amazed by the 'magic hill'. . . my kids are still amazed by it!
