Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge, 119A Whitepark Road, Ballintoy BT54 6LS Northern Ireland
The Carrick-A-Rede rope bridge was first established in 1755 – nearly 265 years ago! In its day there was only one single hand rail and the odd wooden slate every few steps. It was highly unsafe and a real thrill seeker may have found the excitement in crossing. The bridge has massively evolved from then to create a safer experience whilst keeping the excitement and thrill of crossing intact. Located along a stretch of the North Antrim Coast, the Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge sits roughly 100 feet over the hollow waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
The crossing is often considered daring and for thrill-seekers due to the bridges tendencies to sway in the wind and the drop from looking down. We find this is a great stop and a great piece of the North Antrim Coast to include on our Giants Causeway Tour.
**Please Note** - Admission to the Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge is done via time slots and bookings. If you are looking to cross the bridge please get in touch and we'll assist you on times to suit your your.
Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes
Stop At: The Dark Hedges, off Bregagh Road, Ballymoney Northern Ireland
Final stop before our return to Belfast is The Dark Hedges again this is a famous Game of Thrones film set where 'The King's Road' was placed. The trees dating back to 1775 were placed to create an imposing look into the Gracehill House Estate.
There is a legend that the ghost of Grey Lady comes to the tree's and crosses from tree to tree. The lady is claimed to be the spirit of James Stuarts' daughter or one of the house maids from the Gracehill House. This is quickly becoming a piece of heritage within the North of Ireland and is a fantastic spot for Game of Thrones fans and normal tourists!
Duration: 20 minutes
Stop At: Ballintoy Harbour, Harbour Rd, Ballintoy BT54 6NA Northern Ireland
Ballintoy Harbor or to Game of Thrones Fans, known as 'Iron Islands' is a spectacular spot along the North Antrim Coast that welcomes thousands of tourists each year. We make a brief stopover at the harbor for an opportunity to visit the spot, take a walk and take some pictures. It's a truly outstanding harbor placed on a piece of the coast you have to experience for yourself.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Giant's Causeway, Causeway Road, Bushmills BT57 8SU Northern Ireland
The Giants Causeway, the main attraction of the North Antrim Coast is one of the brightest and best attractions on the whole island of Ireland. The Causeway itself has plenty of Irish myths for your guide to tell while your visit to the attraction is under way. To see the Giants Causeway is certainly breath-taking but to experience it with the beliefs of a giant actually building it, is another. The hexagonal patterns that create the different structure like formations through the rocks can be verified by none other than yourself with things like 'The Wishing Chair', 'The Camel', 'The Giants Foot' and the Cliff-Top Path, all of which you will be shown during your experience! Admission to the Giants Causeway is free although there are operational shuttle buses that cost £1 for transport to the Causeway from the carpark, alternatively you can walk the route with no cost at all.
Admission to the Giant's Causeway is free, there is a separate fee into the visitors centre.
Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes
Stop At: Dunluce Castle, 87 Dunluce Road Co. Antrim, Portrush BT57 8UY Northern Ireland
Dunluce Castle is a medieval castle ruin that has been persevered and kept to display the history off the North Coast and the territorial war that happened between the 15th and 16th Century. The castle in itself has been documented to be in existence from the 13th century making it nearly 800 years old! To still be standing and preserved to experience and appreciate is a special feeling whilst on the grounds. We make a stop over for a walk around the castle site that has some fantastic photo opportunities.

What a wonderful tour. The coast of this country is spectacular to visit. It was breathtaking and memorable. This is the tour we could not stop talking about. We went with two other couples that we always travel with. All of us agreed it was great. The Antrim Coast was a must see. Many Game of Thrones scenes and the Causeway was unique. Our guide was on time and interesting. It was a perfect day. Thank you for offering at a cost that was competitive to the cruise line yet a private tour. Fantastic!!
Paul was great. He was very knowledgeable and he accommodated all of our requests. Best tour ever and highly recommend
