About This Tour
Welcome to my darker "dander" around the Walled City. For the quality of experience for its guests, this tour has restricted group numbers. Normally starting from the Visit Derry tourist office in Waterloo Place, we will walk in and around the Walled City, pausing off to hear some of the darker, spooky or haunted history of this ancient city. The city currently hosts the largest Halloween Street Festival in Europe between 28-31 October each year. An alternative start point for private tours is available on request at the Peace Tree on Browning Drive but all tours will normally finish at Visit Derry.
Final price may vary. Check availability for exact pricing.
