Donegal Castle

Donegal Town

Setting off in the morning you will visit both Donegal Castle and Abbey, stronghold of the O’Donnell Clan and their most famous leader Red Hugh O Donnell.  The castle built on the site of a Viking fort by the Chieftain dynasty in the 15th century has undergone restoration works in recent years.

Killybegs

Next we visit the seaside town of Killybegs, Ireland’s largest fishing port. We recount it’s maritime history through the ages including how the “La Girona” set sail from these shores for the last time. From here we travel along the Wild Atlantic Way towards the Muckross Coast.

Slieve League Cliffs

Next we ‘Discover the Edge’ of Slieve League, which are among Europe’s highest Sea Cliffs. At 2000ft, these cliffs are three times higher than the Cliffs of Moher and now attract over 160,000 visitors each year. Here you will get a chance to absorb the clean fresh Atlantic air from the viewing point where you will get possibly the best selfie in the World!! Take a stroll on the Pilgrim’s Path or if you dare along One Man Pass.

Glencolmcille

Next we visit The Glencolmcille Folk Village Museum. This is a cluster of six small cottages, called the “clachán,” perched on a hillside overlooking a sandy curve of nearby Glenbay beach. Each cottage recreates a different era of Irish history, from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries.

Inishowen Co.Donegal

Fanad Head Lighthouse

Enjoy a day tour of coastal and inland attractions incorporating those breathtaking views of the idyllic North West. Setting off in the morning by luxury minibus or car, your fully guided excursion will journey along Mulroy bay to the picturesque Fanad Lighthouse. A maritime marvel, this magnificent and current working lighthouse was an essential service to seafarers negotiating the wild and dangerous seas around the North West coast. We learn about the lights and aids to navigation past and present and we hear the stories of shipwrecked parrots and lost gold on the lighthouse tour.

Doe Castle

Next we continue along the Wild Atlantic Way towards Doe Castle. Dating to the 1420’s, this castle nestled on the shores of Sheephaven Bay was the medieval home and bastion for the MacSweeney chiefs for over 200 years. Know as “gallowglass” these fearless warriors fought and were rewarded by one of Ireland’s last Gaelic chieftain – Red Hugh O Donnell.

Glenveagh National Park

Leaving Doe castle we travel through the vast boglands of mid Donegal as we descend on the sweeping glens of Glenveagh National Park and Castle. Situated in the heart of the Derryveagh mountains, you will learn and become immersed in the chequered history of this unspoiled Special Area of Conservation which is Ireland’s second largest national park.

Grianan Of Aileach

On the final leg of the tour we travel to Grianan an Aileach. Said to have been built by the Tuatha De Danann, this ancient stone ringfort dates its origins to 3000 BC. Located 250m above sea level, this spectacular hilltop site was visited by St Patrick who baptized the local chieftain Eoghan.
