Giant's causeway tour

The Giant’s Causeway is  known to the Irish as the 8th Wonder of the World. A jagged promontory of neatly packed columns of hexagonal basalt rocks created some 6 million years ago by a flow of basaltic lava.

The Giant’s Causeway was said to be discovered in 1692 when William King, the then Anglican Bishop of Derry, along with an unnamed Cambridge Scholar, visited the area.

This now-ruined medieval castle featured in Game of Thrones and Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy album cover is  located on the edge of a basalt outcropping in County Antrim. 

HALLOWEEN GHOST BUS TOUR

Derry City’s Halloween celebrations may have started out small with a fireworks display 30 years ago, but they have grown into a four-day festival attracting tens of thousands.

Halloween roots in the Celtic tradition of Samhain, marking the end of the harvest season. Local folklore and legends are filled with fascinating tales inspired by Samhain, when the veil between this world and the other is at its thinnest, allowing spirits to pass through.

The Derry Halloween carnival is fun for all ages. It’s first and foremost a family affair, with hundreds of children on parade and hundreds more lining the streets to watch, most of them decked out in fancy dress.
