Day 01

Dunluce Castle - around 10 minutes

Enjoy a photo stop at the beautiful Dunluce Castle. This 13 century castle ruin is known as the nicest photo opportunity of all castles in Ireland and will make any amateur photographer look like a professional photographer. 

Please note the tour will include this stop only between 11th of April and 1st of September

Giant's Causeway - around 1.5 hours

Spend around 1.5 hours admiring the spectacular landscapes, made up of some 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, formed by ancient volcanic eruptions. The “stepping stones” leading from the cliff foot disappear under the sea. They reappear in the Island of Straffe in Scotland, hence the legend that this was a road built by the Irish giant Finn McCool to enable him to cross over to Scotland. Truly an amazing wonder of the world! 

Dark Hedges/ Ayra's escape - around 20 minutes

At the Dark Hedges you'll have around 20 minutes to stroll beneath the dramatic arched trees, snap photos of the natural wonder, and hear from your guide why it was chosen for the scene of Arya's nail-biting escape from King's Landing.

Drawing together special effects, rides, full-scale reconstructions and innovative interactive features you will explore the Titanic story in a fresh and insightful way from her conception in Belfast in the early 1900s, through her construction and launch, to her infamous maiden voyage and catastrophic demise. The journey goes beyond the aftermath of the sinking, to the discovery of the wreck and continues into the present day in the Ocean Exploration Centre.

Entrance ticket included in the price of the tour.

Belfast - around 20 minutes

To finish the day of we will drop you in central Belfast, where you'll have around one hour of free time to admire the city sights, stretch your legs, or grab some snacks.
