WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1.
We depart from Belfast City Center, from the bus shelter in front of the famous Europa Hotel, on Great Victoria street at 9.45 am. Begin the journey in the company of your 100% Irish guide and your fellow travel partners for today, we'll get to know each other and have our charming guide set the scene as we take the drive through the rolling farmland of county Antrim to the North Coast of Ireland - an area of outstanding natural beauty.
2. The Dark Hedges
We visit the most popular natural phenomena in Northern Ireland, the Dark Hedges. The trees were planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family to impress their guests upon arrival to their house. Most of you will recognize the Dark Hedges as King's Road from the hit TV series Game of Thrones. It is a wonderful photo-stop and an opportunity to be a part of a real life set!
3. Causeway Coastal Route
We make our way to the Causeway Coast where we can see fine views of Rathlin Island, and on a clear day we may even see the Scottish coast 13 miles away. The views along this coastline are spectacular, no wonder it is one of the most visited destinations in Europe!
4. Giant's Causeway
The Giant's Causeway is the highlight of this trip for most! Built by the Irish giant Fionn and his Scottish rival Angus, it is a real masterpiece formed of perfectly shaped hexagonal columns. Your tour guide shall tell you more about the Causeway, and the legends of the area. The entrance fee for the visitor centre is not included as the UNESCO World Heritage Site is actually completely free of charge to the public. Based on years of guest feedback our guests prefer to have the best possible value price for the overall tour and then can make individual decisions locally as to whether they wish to access the adjacent visitor centre for a fee at the door.
5. Dunluce Castle
We arrive at one of the most dramatic castle ruins in the world for a 1 hour stop, prepare to be amazed at the way this old castle hangs over the edge of the cliffs. Part of the Dunluce Castle fell into the sea in the 1600's, and some servants died in the tragedy. Since that time, it is believed to be haunted by the unfortunate servants. Take some impressive photos before we leave the coast and make our way to Belfast.
6.
Arrive back in Belfast safe and well around 05:00pm in downtown Belfast, your thirst for knowledge quenched and of course you can now say to all your friends that the top attractions in Northern Ireland are now crossed off your list!

Wonderful trip up the coast. Richard, our driver, brought the country side and the history of Ireland to life. The bus was both clean and comfortable even completely full. Dunluce Castle ruins were fascinating and picturesque. The Giant’s Causeway was extraordinary. I’d do this trip again in a moment.

The causeway was wonderful.
The guide was very personable, but did not provide sufficient history (especially Dunluce castle), general information and directions. Waiting in the rain and not sure exactly where the bus was going to be was not pleasant. A half hour for lunch was not enough.

The tour of the coast was absolutely stunning! Melissa was very friendly and explained well the history of various places throughout the day and Ian safely drove for the day. There was sufficient time at each stop to explore and take pictures. Also appreciated the lunch stop option

The coastline was magnificent.
Driver was a good storyteller.

Commentary was poor. Promised 100% Irish guide - was North American and culturally so.

When we arrived late to t'he bus
Happily the lady in charge patiently stood up for us.
We are kindly grateful for that
But we consider that the time given for walking around the causeway is very short

Despite the mist and cold we had a great trip to Giants Causeway. Our driver kept us entertained with songs and jokes. He was welcoming, friendly and informative. We loved the trip. .

We had a good day out at the Causeway and the nearby landmarks, however the promise of a 'live commentator' to guide us through the day wasn't fulfilled unfortunately.

We looked at many tours but chose this one as we thought we'd get a tour guide to explain the history, mythology and culture of the places but all we got was "go down here, take a selfie, be back on the bus for half 1". I had to Google the places and provide our party the actual information of where we were.

We also were taken to a cafe for lunch which wasn't advertised on the itinerary before hand. The food wasn't great and had huge queues, so me and my wife just walked along the road to a pub nearby.

The landmarks were fantastic to see, but the trip would have been made better by having the actual advertised tour guide with us. It looks like others have had a better experience so perhaps it is potluck.
