Full Description

This tour will depart from Chichester Street in Belfast at 09:15 where the highly trained guides will begin the tour and will tell you all about the unique Irish myths and legends on the way to the first stop.

 

Dunluce Castle (photo stop)

On the way to the Giant’s Causeway, the tour includes a brief stop at one of Ireland's most photogenic castle ruins, dating back to before 1513. Located on a rock jutting into the ocean, it offers a fantastic photo opportunity for any photographer.

 

Giant's Causeway

Visitors spend about 1.5 hours at the Giant’s Causeway, known as the 8th wonder of the world for its stunning geological formations. This top Northern Irish tourist attraction features 40,000 interlocking hexagonal basalt columns created over 50 million years ago. The site is steeped in mythology, famously said to have been constructed by the Irish giant Finn McCool as a bridge to Scotland to challenge the Scottish giant Bennandonner.

 

Dark Hedges

This 300-year-old lane of beech trees, originally planted as a driveway to Gracehill House, offers a stunning photo opportunity. Known as Northern Ireland's most photographed natural phenomenon, these trees have appeared in several films and TV series, including "Game of Thrones" and "Transformers."

 

Seasonal changes bring varying beauty to the Dark Hedges, where fewer than 80 of the original 300 trees remain. This scenic stop provides a pleasant break on the drive back to Belfast, making the tour more relaxed with less time on the bus.

 

Titanic Museum

Regarded as one of the world's leading tourist attractions, Titanic Belfast is the largest museum dedicated to the ill-fated Titanic, which was constructed on the very site of the museum in Belfast. The museum extends over nine interactive galleries and offers visitors a dynamic experience through state-of-the-art exhibitions, special effects, rides, and full-scale reconstructions, making it an essential visit in Belfast.

 

Visitors can explore the shipyard, descend to ocean depths, and uncover the true story of the Titanic in its birth city. The museum's location offers a view of the ship's full-size outline by the dry dock, situated in one of Belfast’s most picturesque areas for photography, alongside the Harbour and the River Lagan.

 

Innovative technology, films, archival materials, scale models, and many interactive displays allow visitors to immerse themselves in the history of the iconic Titanic. Through these engaging exhibits, the story of the Titanic comes vividly to life.
