Routes from City of Derry Airport:
To Derry/Londonderry City:

Tolls:
There are no toll roads in Northern Ireland, so you won't encounter any tolls when driving from City of Derry Airport to other locations within Northern Ireland.

Things to Look Out For When Driving Your Hire Car:
Speed Limits: Remember to always observe the speed limits. They are usually 30 mph in built-up areas, 60 mph on main roads outside towns, and 70 mph on dual carriageways and motorways.
Driving on the Left: As in the rest of the UK, drive on the left side of the road.
Border Crossing: If you're heading to the Republic of Ireland (e.g., Letterkenny), ensure you have the necessary insurance and documentation for cross-border travel. There are no hard border checks between Northern Ireland and the Republic, but it's essential to be prepared.
Weather: The weather can be unpredictable, with rain quite common. Ensure your vehicle's lights and wipers are in good working order and adjust your driving to the conditions.
Roundabouts: Be familiar with navigating roundabouts, giving way to traffic coming from the right.
