This in-app audio tour invites you to explore Derry’s captivating Waterside area, offering a rich blend of history and scenery. Ideal for history buffs and scenic lovers, the self-guided audio experience allows you to delve into the military past and present charm as you navigate the city. The tour is narrated by a local guide, David Douglas, who brings a personal touch to the journey, sharing anecdotes from his childhood home area in Bonds Street. Starting from the Visitor Information Centre in Waterloo Place, prepare to cross the iconic Peace Bridge, meander through Ebrington Square, and stroll the lush pathways of St Columb's Park before concluding the adventure at the North West Transport Hub, the old railway station. Along the route, pause to admire the grandeur of the Guildhall, engage with the interactive Mute Meadow art installation, and contemplate at the International Sailor statue. Notable landmarks such as St Columb’s statue and the historic ruins of St Brecan's Church enrich the path, while murals offer a visual narrative of the city’s heritage. The most memorable experiences include the opportunity to absorb panoramic views from the bridge, understand the importance of St Columb as the city's patron saint, and encounter the diverse cultural imprints that extend from Stables Inn to the contemporary Peace Tree sculpture. Every step unveils a layer of Derry’s storied past, set against the picturesque backdrop of the River Foyle.
