5.00My wife and I had a great tour with David. Very knowledgeable guide and also just a very nice guy. We went on our tour the night before Halloween during the annual Saimhan festival in Derry, and he shared many fascinating local paranormal stories and tidbits of information about the city. Also gave us some great info on points of interest to check out while on our visit. Recommend the booking!

5.00The history of this city is complex and rich. To begin to appreciate it you need an expert guide. David is your man. With his expert knowledge and communication skills he showed us all its facets from its most historic to present day.
