Hiring a car at Londonderry Derry

Located in Northern Ireland, Londonderry, also known as Derry, is a historic walled city which sits on either side of the River Foyle, not far from the sea. Hiring a car from the local Enterprise-Rent-A-Car branch will allow you to explore the town and surrounding coutryside in comfort.

Culture

Take a stroll along the 17th-century walls that ring the city centre and enjoy panoramic views of the River Foyle and the surrounding countryside. Dive into history at the Tower Museum, where exhibits cover the city's maritime, political, and social past. Art aficionados can explore the vibrant local art scene at the Void Gallery or catch a performance at the Millennium Forum, a modern theatre hosting a variety of shows throughout the year.

Family-Friendly Activities Around Londonderry

Families visiting Londonderry can enjoy a range of activities suitable for all ages. Explore the hands-on exhibits at the Museum of Free Derry, which chronicles the city's troubled history and civil rights movement. For outdoor fun, head to St. Columb's Park, where playgrounds, walking trails, and riverside picnicking await. You can also head to the coast for a bracing walk along  the seafront.

Sport

Golfers will be in their element as the city is surrounded by golf courses, if you fancy something less sedate, try your hand at watersports on the River Foyle or go hiking in the nearby Sperrin Mountains.

Parking and Road Access

There are plenty of car parks around the centre of town, several with Electric Car charging points, but street parking is limited to one hour. If you are visiting at the weekend, try park outside the walls as it can be hard to get out at rush hours.
