På toppen av nordöstra Donegal ligger Inishowen, Irlands största halvö. På denna Wild Atlantic Way turné, kommer jag att visa dig runt en del av halvöns 100 - mile kustnära enhet känd som "Inishowen 100". På din resa kommer du att se glacialfjorden, Lough Swilly, som inspirerade psalmen "Amazing Grace". Du får lära dig de uråldriga hemligheterna om Grianan av Aileach Ringfort, maktens säte för Ulsters hövdingar. Jag ska berätta tragedin med SS Laurentic och dess oupptäckta guld nära Fort Dunree. Du kommer att resa genom den nervpåfrestande Mamore Gap och trotsa fysiken på "Magic Road". Ett besök på Doagh Famine Village får dig att kliva tillbaka i tiden och höra hur livet brukade vara i området. Din dag kulminerar i en galax långt, långt borta genom att nå Malin Head, Irlands nordligaste punkt och inspelningsplatsen för Star Wars : Episod VIII - Den sista Jedin. Turen är på ett roligt, avslappnat sätt, med massor av skämt, skrönor och den udda sången också!

Beläget på västra sidan av Inishowen halvön, är den natursköna bilresan till Fort Dunree ensam lika hisnande som utsikten från fortet.

Oh what a wonderful day
We were lucky enough to have Henry as our guide in March 2026, and the rainy day was instantly brightened by his beaming smile when he picked us up at our accommodation. Henry gave us a wonderful day filled with wit, charm, and knowledge, and we enjoyed every moment. We also had plenty of time to ourselves at the various stops; we can highly recommend this tour in general, and Henry as a guide in particular.

Our day with Henry was exceptional something we will never forget.
Our tour with Henry remains a highlight of our trip. Henry was knowledgeable, but more importantly, he took a genuine interest in our interests and in our family’s history. As a result Henry customized our trip to give us a unique perspective on the Inishowen Peninsula. This tour is exceptional.

The best way to see all of the Wild Atlantic Way!!
If you are ever in Donegal- book with Henry & Donegal Tours! It was the most incredible experience we had in 1 day!
We booked the Innishowen Tor/ Malin head
Booking was easy Henry responded quickly and professionally
The day before our tour he gave us our location to meet him in Donegal. He was there early His Mercedes van was clean, comfortable, packed with waters & umbrellas ( if need be)
His knowledge of the area, its history & present day knowledge of the area was fantastic. My father is a huge history buff- he probably talked & asked questions to Henry all day! Henry was more than happy to answer & share everything with him!
The rugged landscapes are breathtaking here! The roads are not for the faint of heart! Henry maneuvered around all the twists & turns with precise professionalism!
We had wonderful weather! We saw Griaanan fort A local man gave us such insight to this area and its history We drive through the lovely town of Buncrana, Fort Dunree which was magical against the ocean
The cloudy weather, a slight drizzle then a burst of sunshine made it most magical!
My favorite part was our trip down to the Gap of Mamore!
We stopped at the “Magic Toad” where he put the van in neutral- took his feet off the gas pedal & his hands off the wheel ! The van slowly moved up hill with the help of the Fairies!!! ( believe in the magic & folklore in Ireland)
The views are simply BREATHTAKING here!
Our last stop was the dough Famine village It was so interesting The guide is the owner & lived I. These thatched cottages himself - do t forget to go through the haunted room for a little spooky fun!
Although we didn’t get to Malin head due to road construction up there- we cannot recommend Henry & Donegal tours enough
We will definitely book with him again!
Thank you Henry!’

Wonderful Two Days of Touring with Donegal Tour.
We had a fantastic two days touring of Inishowen and Slieve Liag with Henry of Donegal Tour Guide. He was so friendly and professional. He has a wealth of knowledge as he is from the area. He provides a very personal tour and was very accommodating to our schedule and needs. Excellent communication prior to our arrival also!

Henry is an amazing tour guide! We highly recommend!
We spent about 2-1/2 days with Henry just last month touring Donegal and the Inishowen Peninsula. We loved every minute of our time with him. Because of our limited time there, he personalized an itinerary for us which was fantastic. He was so personable, knowledgeable, flexible, and his transport vehicle was incredibly comfortable and immaculately maintained. We are looking forward to returning to the Inishowen Peninsula. I would not go back to Ireland without spending time there!

3 Day Tour
We toured 3 days with Henry and Mallin Head was our favorite day. Henry went overboard to help us with groceries, our Airbnb, and acquiring other transportation. He was a joy to learn from and spend the day with. We especially liked how he explained the Gaelic language everywhere we went.

It was great to tour you around County Donegal and my pleasure to make your stay more comfortable. Delighted to read Inishowen was your favourite part of the trip. Hopefully you can return for longer in the future!

Our trip was exceptional as Henry made our day very memorable with his knowledge of all the Inishowen Peninsula and his sence of humour. He made sure we got the most out of all our stops with no pressure on time restraints. He was our guide for the day and was the best there is. Thank you.

Henry is the best!
My sister and I booked with Henry for our first trip to Ireland, and it was the best decision we ever made! We spent 5 days with Henry as he took us all over the north of Ireland (County Donegal and the Inishowen Peninsula). He shared history, stories, traditions, and so many laughs. Henry made our experience unforgettable and we were sad when our time with him came to an end. We met as strangers but left as friends. He made our time here amazing and we will forever be grateful to him for that. We will be using him again on our next trip. If you book with Henry, you won't be sorry. He is truly amazing!
