Itinerary
Day 1
Dublin - Derry
Immerse yourself in Ireland's historic past at the impressive Trim Castle - a twelfth century Anglo Norman fortress which some would say was where the Troubles all began .... back then. Next up are the awe-inspiring prehistoric tombs at Lough Crew : which are older than the pyramids of Giza! Then why not relax over a pint or take a stroll in picturesque Enniskillen - a pretty island town on Lough Erne, just over the northern border, infamous for troubles during the 80s. Then it's onto Derry City for a night of traditional music and song.
Day 2
Derry - Belfast
A beautiful coastal drive takes us straight to Dunluce Castle, thought to be one of the most romantic and picturesque of Irish castles. Find your own space at the mysterious Giant's Causeway. With its thousands of hexagonal columns it is a source of many a legend, and on a clear day you can see right across to Scotland! Not for the faint hearted, the next stop is the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge* swaying 80ft above the ocean. Enjoy the beautiful scenery of Antrim glens as you journey to Northern Ireland's capital city : Belfast - Party the night away in vibrant Belfast. *Rope bridge : weather permitting.
Day 3
Belfast - Dublin
A real eye opener - see the murals of the Falls and Shankill Road on the famous Black Cab tour of the City. Stop off at Monasterboice for intricately carved Celtic High crosses before passing by the site of the Battle of the Boyne, crucial to Northern Ireland's History. Next up is the Fair City of Dublin

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.
