About

Take a fun and entertaining Derry Girls tour in Belfast. Although the show is set in and partly filmed in Derry much of the show is actually filmed in Belfast. With Belfast becoming a hub for the filming of high profile TV shows including Game of Thrones and Line of Duty this tour is a great way to see the city as well as see locations from the hit comedy. On tour, you will get to explore many filming locations featured in the world of Erin, her friends, and her family.

The hit TV show is set in Derry in the early 1990s before peace broke out. The show follows the lives of four teenage Derry girls: Erin, Orla, Clare, Michelle as well as the wee English fella James.

The channel 4 comedy show films most of the scenes in Belfast with Derry being used for certain exterior shots. This makes our Derry Girls tour of Belfast an essential tour if you are a fan of the TV show.
