Our first view of the Derry city walls. Cool history. Walk into the walled section of the city and take a right to get to stairs so you can get on top of the walls for a nice walk around!

The Peace Bridge in Londonderry is more than just a bridge; it's a symbol of hope, reconciliation, and progress. This iconic structure spans the River Foyle, connecting the city's historic walled city with the modern Ebrington Square. Designed by Wilkinson Eyre Architects, the bridge is a marvel of engineering and a stunning piece of contemporary architecture. Its graceful curves and sleek design make it a striking landmark. The bridge's unique shape, with its two halves overlapping at the center, represents a "handshake" between the two sides of the city, a powerful metaphor for the peace process in Northern Ireland. Beyond its architectural significance, the Peace Bridge has become a vital part of the city's social fabric. It's a popular spot for locals and visitors alike, offering stunning views of the river and the city skyline. Whether you're strolling along the bridge, cycling across it, or simply admiring it from afar, you can't help but feel a sense of optimism and hope. The Peace Bridge is a testament to the power of human spirit and a reminder that even the deepest divisions can be bridged.

We celebrated our wedding at the Guildhall on Saturday and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. All communication was handled efficiently, kindly, and professionally, and we instantly felt we were in a ‘safe pair of hands’ for our special day. All of the staff we spoke to reassured us that they understood what we wanted and put us at ease. Throughout the whole process, the staff couldn’t do enough for us and our guests. The venue is absolutely stunning. We got married in the main hall, in front of the stained glass windows. The staff allowed Holly’s Dad to play us in and out on the organ. They also recommended White Horse for our catering who provided delicious food and a great service. We had a relaxed and joyful experience and would highly recommend the Guildhall as a venue for an unforgettable day. Special mentions for Lee, Troy, Paige, Brian, Ellie, Sylvia and the kind lady (we think, Carol) who took us out on the balcony and in the council chamber. Holly and Max

An amazing experience in the Free Derry Museum ! Here, you find the all story of The Troubles that took place in Derry and the building of tensions between the two communities beforehand. It is well-explained and very complete. If you are in Derry, you definitely have to come here !

We stayed in apartment 2 on the second floor. The unit is well appointed with a kitchen, living room, and bedroom. The kitchen has a stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave, and hot water kettle. The landlord is incredibly nice and will accommodate most needs. The apartment has a great location within easy walking distance of the most interesting part of the city. We loved it here!

Fantastic spot in Derry and a great way to spend some time. We visited on a Monday afternoon where it was 2 for 1 on tickets so a mere £6 to get in. Brilliant value. There are three exhibits, the first focusing on Derry Girls, a recent comedy tv show which if you haven’t seen is well worth a watch. Great exhibit which contains a lot of props from the series you can see. Second exhibit is the history of Derry which goes right back Neolithic age and then takes you on a fantastic walk through time, right up to the modern day. Third and final exhibit is all around the Spanish Armada and specifically a ship that was sunk nearby and found relatively recently (late 60s/early 70s I think it said it was). There’s also a rooftop where you can get a view from all angles out over the rooftops in Derry although admittedly I didn’t enjoy it too much - it was a grey drizzly day so maybe would have been better with blue skies and good visibility but I couldn’t really see much today.
