Derry (/ˈdɛri/), officially Londonderry (/ˈlʌndənˌdɛri/), is the second-largest city in Northern Ireland and the fourth-largest city on the island of Ireland. The name Derry is an anglicisation of the Old Irish name Daire (modern Irish: Doire) meaning "oak grove". In 1613, the city was granted a Royal Charter by King James I and gained the "London" prefix to reflect the funding of its construction by the London guilds. While the city is more usually known colloquially as Derry, Londonderry is also commonly used and remains the legal name.

If you enjoy history, good storytelling, walks with great views, the macabre, having a laugh, or chatting with nice people then a tour of Derry City Cemetery with Seamus Breslin is a must if you are visiting Derry. It was one of the highlights of our very enjoyable time in Derry. Go ahead and book a tour, you won't regret it!

Our family of four spent a wonderful week in Ireland and Northern Ireland in early September as part of a cultural tour from Delectable Destinations. Red Walker and ECS Travel were a huge part of what made this trip so outstanding. Informative...professional...safety first...Red became an integral part of our tour from Dublin to Rathmullan, Donegal, Slieve League, Fanad Peninsula, Derry, Giants Causeway, and over to Belfast. And when one of Red's passenger vans had mechanical issues, he and his wife Deirdre showed up with two vehicles to get us around! We all learned so much from both Red and Deirdre and felt like they became instant friends. This was simply the best way to tour the Emerald Isle!!
