This weekend take a step back in time as Foyle Paddlers take you back in a fun history tour of the Foyle, discover why the vikings set up camp at Dunalong (The Long Fort) and how it later became an Elizabethan stronghold as big as Derry.
Discover why the Normans were interested in Greencastle and why Napoleon never got past Magilligan.
Plus visit the site of the Boom, retrace the route of the emigrant ships and discover the origin of many of the familiar place names which surround us today.
