Belfast and Derry 2 Day Tour

Day 1 of our tours see's us leaving Dublin and heading towards our first stop

Newgrange is a prehistoric monument in County Meath in Ireland, located on a rise overlooking the River Boyne, 8 kilometres west of Drogheda. It is an exceptionally grand passage tomb built during the Neolithic Period, around 3200 BC, making it older than Stonehenge and the Egyptian pyramids.

Visit the spectacular Titanic Museum, showing how the Titanic was built, Taking you through the sights and senses of the Harland and Wolff ShipYard, as the Titanic rose from conception to its maiden, and final voyage. Experience the stories of those that were on board, and witness the tragedy that happened on that fateful April night in 1912.

It’s all aboard for the short trip to the Belfast Peace Walls

The peace walls separate Catholic and Protestant Neighbours, to alleviate much of the tensions witnessed over the years. See some of the city's glorious murals and artistic splendors.

These walls are just as prominent today as they were 100 years ago, when they were first built.

For a country that’s only 100 years old, Northern Ireland’s politics is unique.

Many visitors to Northern Ireland have grown up watching our country on the news for the wrong reasons.

The list is endless: a 30-year conflict, bombs going off, civil rights protests, riots, contentious parades, paramilitary murals, senseless murders.

But what you mightn’t know is that modern-day Northern Ireland is quite different.

We don’t hide from our past, but we embrace it.

We bed down for the night before we set off on our travels in the morning.  Don't forget to book your accommodation here separately.

Wake up and get ready for our second day of the tour.

Our next stop takes us north, to the Gian't Causeway.  This is one of Irelands most instantly recognised locations.  Naturally formed from volcanic eruptions, these 40'000 interlocking columns of Basalt create a visual experience like no other.

With over a million tourists visiting the Giant's Causeway each year, you can see why it is such a major attraction to visitors from around the globe.

THE WORLD'S OLDEST LICENSED WHISKEY DISTILLERY

GRANTED A LICENSE TO DISTIL IN 1608, BUSHMILLS IS THE OLDEST LICENSED WHISKEY DISTILLERY IN THE WORLD.

Over 400 years later, whiskey is still being made in Bushmills, thanks to experience and craft passed down from generation to generation.

Derry is the second-largest city in Northern Ireland and the fifth largest city on the Island of Ireland The name Derry translators as 'oak grove'.

The old walled city lies on the west bank of the River Foyle, which is spanned by two road bridges and one footbridge. The city now covers both banks (Cityside on the west and Waterside on the east).

Here you will catch up on the real stories of Derry City and how it faired out after "Bloody Sunday" in 1972 on Bogside and what became to be known as "THE TROUBLES", which seemed to last a lifetime.

The Derry Girls Mural was created by a local not-for-profit company, UV Arts, and is located on the side of Badger’s Bar and Restaurant, opposite the Foyleside shopping centre.

Located on Orchard Street, the mural features the popular cast of Derry Girls, a comedy series which follows a group of five secondary school students — Erin Quinn, Orla McCool, Clare Devlin, Michelle Mallon, and James Maguire — navigating adolescence in the early-1990s, amid "The Troubles" in Northern Ireland.

We now head back to our starting point after a wonderful tour and hopefully you will have many memories of your trip around Ireland.

Don't forget that we have many tours available and if you cannot see a tour which suits you, then we can create a fully customised tour for you and your guests.  We offer all types of tours, from 1 day tours through to 14 days and everything in between.
