Fantastic hearing it from someone who had the firsthand experience. Brought back to life my memories of those times and what we couldn’t understand from the other side of the world.
Individual tour with the conveyance of a lot of historical background knowledge, many personal impressions and experiences.
One of the best tours I’ve ever been on. Informative and contextual. Mr. Doherty was a delight, and it was great to hear the history from a local who has a personal connection to Bloody Sunday. If you’re visiting Derry and interested in local and Irish history I highly recommend this tour. Would give it 6 stars if I could.
The walking portion of the tour is relatively short in comparison to other walking tours, about half a mile in total. The tour guide Glenn is very informative. He has a passion for this information. The murals are close together and Glenn does a great job of explaining the significance of each one.
Fantastic tour. Gleann was a fantastic guide.
My guide was Gleann. The tour was excellent. I give troubles realted tours in Belfast but his perspective gave me a whole new undnerstanding of Derry and the troubles, in particular Bloody Sunday and interment. He had great knowledge, intimate connection with the events and a great delivery. Well worth it.
So grateful to the guide, Gleann for sharing his knowledge and personal experiences in this amazing place. These stories are important, and I hope that more people learn about these places and the events over the ages.
So much important history to learn here, highly recommended tour. I am immensely grateful to our guide.
Our guide Gleann was very knowledgeable and funny. There were lots of Derry Girls references during the tour and how Gleann interpreted historical events through that show. We walked along part of the city walls as Gleann explained some of the city's history and why the walls were built and who the walls were meant to keep out. From there we headed to the Bogside community to learn about the events of Bloody Sunday and what inspired the Bogside murals. Even though we had read some information beforehand, standing in the locations really had a personal impact. This was a highlight of our trip and Gleann was the perfect guide.
Gleann Doherty was a fantastic tour guide! He was so insightful and gave us the real Derry experience. Highly recommend!
