Giant's Causeway Day Trip from Belfast
Overview of the tour in Belfast
Experience the best of Northern Ireland on this 6-hour Giant’s Causeway tour from Belfast! Starting from Belfast, you’ll head to the stunning Dark Hedges, a hauntingly beautiful beech tree-lined avenue planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family to impress guests at their Georgian estate. Famous for Game of Thrones, this enchanting location is a photographer's dream.
Next, enjoy a brief photo stop at Dunluce Castle, a dramatic medieval ruin perched on the edge of a cliff steeped in local lore and literary inspiration. It’s said that C.S. Lewis found his inspiration for The Chronicles of Narnia here!
Passing by the historic Bushmills Distillery, your guide will share stories of the world’s oldest licensed distillery. Although there’s no tasting on this tour, you’ll learn about Ireland's whiskey-making traditions.
The highlight awaits at Giant’s Causeway, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Wander among the 40,000 basalt columns formed by volcanic activity millions of years ago, or, as local legend has it, by the mighty Irish giant Finn McCool. Enjoy up to two hours here, exploring the surreal landscape, where stunning views meet ancient myths.

Things to note
Please wear comfortable clothing as there will be stops along the way, and walking is required for the tour.
Lunch is not included. We do not stop at any restaurants/ cafes for lunch. Bringing your own packed lunch is recommended, as cafes and pubs at tourist attractions tend to be overpriced. Also, it would take up the time that you could have spent exploring the attractions.
As this is a group tour, please be considerate and be reminded that we will not wait for more than 5 minutes after the given time at each stop. The language barrier is not an acceptable excuse. Please make sure to check with our driver/ guide if you are not sure. They are always happy to help.
