What you can expect

Embark on an unforgettable journey through the breathtaking highlands of Donegal, one of Ireland’s most rugged and scenic regions. Begin your adventure at Grianan Fort, the ancient stronghold of the northern O’Neill clan, where panoramic views of north Donegal set the tone for the day.

Travel through Letterkenny, Donegal’s largest town, and into the heart of the highlands, a landscape once connected to Scotland’s Caledonians. Stop at Glenveagh National Park, renowned for its lush gardens and the majestic Glenveagh Castle. Explore the castle’s rich history and enjoy the serene beauty of the park’s surroundings.

Continue to the Poison Glen, a site of haunting beauty beneath Mount Errigal, Donegal’s highest peak. Here, visit the Dunlewey Centre, where you can enjoy boat trips, weaving demonstrations, and an open farm experience. Immerse yourself in the vibrant culture of the Gaeltacht areas of Gweedore and Falcarragh, learning about the preservation of the Irish language.

Conclude your day with a visit to one of Donegal’s stunning beaches before making your way back to Derry along the picturesque coastal route. This 8-hour tour promises a mix of history, nature, and culture, leaving you with lasting memories of Donegal’s wild beauty.
