The best areas of Northern Ireland are still its best kept secrets to the west and south; from its rugged coastline, to the idyllic lakes, and unspoiled mountain ranges. Experience all these aspects with visits to: Belfast (the capital and largest city in Northern Ireland, best known for being where the RMS Titanic was built); after that, explore the Mourne Mountains and Coast area and its most populous city Newry. Continue to Enniskillen (a charming town where you will enjoy its delightful waterside setting, making it the ideal base to explore the charms of County Fermanagh and beyond, with many historic monuments and castles); then, enjoy the Omagh and the Sperrins area (with its bustling market centre on the footsteps of the famed Sperrin Mountains and Gortin Lakes; the region`s romantic landscapes, rich in history and heritage with rugged countryside, and great outdoors); and last, but not least, stay in Derry (the northernmost city in Ireland and one of the finest examples of a walled city in Europe). A rental car allows you to take your vacation into your own hands. This is a flexible vacation package. Select your number of nights in each city, desired hotel and activities.

Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom, comprises the northeastern sixth of the island of Ireland. Torn apart during the 30 years of sectarian strife in the late 20th century, often called 'The Troubles,' this fascinating and beautiful part of the Emerald Isle has emerged to become one of the largest cultural and economic hubs in the British Isles. Belfast, its vibrant capital, is particularly popular. The historic city of Derry, the only walled city on the Irish island, was severely impacted by The Troubles; today it boasts flourishing intellectual and arts scenes.

Belfast
Belfast, the capital and largest city of Northern Ireland, dates back to the Middle Ages and has a rich history. Nestled beside the River Lagan and Belfast Lough, it has a lovely setting, often called 'the Hibernian Rio,' a long natural inlet ideal for the shipping trade. One of the last great oceangoing liners, the famous Titanic, was built here in the world famous Belfast Shipyard. Take a stroll and admire the Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian architecture, dominated by the magnificently domed City Hall. Today's Belfast offers beautifully restored Victorian architecture, a splendid waterfront lined with modern art, a fantastic foodie scene and music-filled pubs.
Visit Belfast City Hall, Grand Opera House, Ulster Museum, Botanic Gardens, Titanic Belfast, St. George's Market, Belfast Castle, Parliament Buildings, and much more. -
Mourne Mountains and Coast
The Mourne Mountains are the highest and most dramatic mountain range in Northern Ireland, whose summits are crowned by granite tors. But don't overlook the rugged coastal plains below, which are equally awe-inspiring! The mountains are crisscrossed by an unrivaled network of paths and tracks that descend to the sandy coast below, beloved by hikers! This area is recognized as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and it certainly lives up to this title. The Mournes' have long inspired writers and storytellers.
Enjoy the High and Low Mournes, the Mourne Wall, Silent Valley, Annalong, Kilkeel, Newcastle, Warrenpoint, and so much more! -
Enniskillen (Lough Erne)
The charming town of Enniskillen lies on the short stretch of the river that separates Lough Erne into its northern and southern counterparts. Because of this, the town is perfect for exploring both sides of the popular lake shore. The lakeside is high and rocky in some parts and, in addition to the 154 islands, there are many coves and inlets. Lough Erne is a particularly scenic waterway, renowned for its beautiful setting, and for its angling and watersports - with waterskiing, rowing, and wakeboarding being amongst the most popular.
Visit the Enniskillen Castle Museums, National Trust Castle Coole, Erne Water Taxi, Cole's Monument, The Inniskillings Museum, Fermanagh Lakeland Forum, and so much more! -
Omagh and the Sperrins
Omagh, the principal county town of County Tyrone is situated where the rivers Drumragh and Camowen meet to form the Strule. Just outside of Omagh is the Ulster-American Folk Park, one of the best open-air museums of its kind. The Sperrin Mountains are a range of mountains stretching from Strabane eastwards to Slieve Gallion and towards Limavady, popular with star-gazers because it is an official Dark Sky area.
Enjoy the Strule Arts Center, Ulster American Folk Park, Sperrins star watching Center, McKenna Gallery, The Abingdon Collection, Memorial Garden, Sawel Mountain, Gortin Glen Forest Park, and much more. -
Derry (Londonderry)
The city of Derry (also referred to as Londonderry) is a center of culture and creativity in Northern Ireland. The city walls, dating from the 17th century, are still complete and measure one mile in circumference. Particularly hard-hit during 'The Troubles,' Derry thrives today as one of the North's most unforgettable cities. It is a great jumping-off point for exploring the sights of the North Coast, like the Giants Causeway, a volcanic formation of thousands of hexagonal rocks, situated about an hour away.
Visit the Museum of Free Derry, Tower Museum, Peace Bridge, Derry Walls, Bloody Sunday Obelisk, and much more.
