• The Dark Hedges - Our final stop before heading back to Belfast is The Dark Hedges, a renowned Game of Thrones filming location where ‘The King’s Road’ was set. These trees, planted in 1775, were designed to create a dramatic entrance to the Gracehill House Estate.

Legend has it that the ghost of the Grey Lady haunts these trees, moving from one to another. She is said to be the spirit of James Stuart’s daughter or a maid from Gracehill House. This site is quickly becoming a heritage landmark in Northern Ireland and is a fantastic spot for both Game of Thrones fans and regular tourists!

• Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge - Established in 1755, the Carrick-A-Rede rope bridge is nearly 265 years old! Originally, it had just one handrail and sporadic wooden slats, making it quite unsafe and thrilling for those daring enough to cross. The bridge has since been upgraded for safety while maintaining its adventurous appeal. Located along the North Antrim Coast, the bridge spans about 100 feet above the Atlantic Ocean.

The crossing is often seen as daring and ideal for thrill-seekers due to the bridge’s tendency to sway in the wind and the significant drop below. This is a great stop and a highlight of the North Antrim Coast on our Giants Causeway Tour.

Please Note - The Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge has reopened and now requires time-slot bookings. We will assist you with booking your crossing time after you book your tour.

• Ballintoy Harbour - Known to Game of Thrones fans as the ‘Iron Islands,’ Ballintoy Harbour is a stunning location along the North Antrim Coast that attracts thousands of tourists each year. We will make a brief stop here for you to explore, take a walk, and snap some photos. It’s a truly remarkable harbor that you must experience for yourself.

• Giant’s Causeway - The Giant’s Causeway is the main attraction of the North Antrim Coast and one of the most impressive sights in all of Ireland. Your guide will share plenty of Irish myths during your visit. Seeing the Giant’s Causeway is breathtaking, but experiencing it with the legend of a giant building it adds another layer of wonder. The hexagonal rock formations include features like ‘The Wishing Chair,’ ‘The Camel,’ ‘The Giant’s Foot,’ and the Cliff-Top Path, all of which you will see during your visit! Admission to the Giant’s Causeway is free, though there are shuttle buses available for £1 to transport you from the car park to the Causeway. Alternatively, you can walk the route at no cost.

Admission to the Giant’s Causeway is free, but there is a separate fee for entry to the visitor center.

• Dunluce Castle - Dunluce Castle is a medieval ruin that has been preserved to showcase the history of the North Coast and the territorial wars of the 15th and 16th centuries. The castle dates back to the 13th century, making it nearly 800 years old! Its preservation allows visitors to experience and appreciate its historical significance. We will stop here for a walk around the castle grounds, which offer fantastic photo opportunities.

• Magheracross Viewing Point - This magnificent viewpoint is located near Dunluce Castle. We will make a brief stop to take in the stunning views of the North Antrim Coast.
