Could not be happier with the whole experience - We had perfect weather for the Fotos and our Tourguide Andrew was so great, very cool and funny inside views from someone who worked severel years on GoT. He is a very good storyteller , cannot wait to book another Tour with him in the future, would even do the same one again , just to get entertaint from him.

See you again next year! - Another amazing tour and lucky enough to get the legend Andrew McClay again. Have now done both and they are fabulous days out. The walks on the Winterfell tour can be hard going for some, but so worth it. To stand, see and be at the actual spots where so many important parts of the GoT stories happened was just wonderful. The food in the pub was also very good. I will be back next year when the additional Knight of the Seven Kingdoms bits should be added.

100% do again!! - If you have watched game of Thrones (and liked it), this is worth every penny and more! Andrew, our guide was entertaining, very engaging and funny. He was an extra in many of the seasons and told great stories about the filming of various scenes and how the series impacted the lives of those living and working in Northern Ireland.

Phenomenal to The Max - There is not a word adequately sufficient nor descriptive to use for the quality, fun and splendor to the senses than this tour, hosted by a real for real 7 times killed extra actor in the originsl Game of Thrones saga, Robbie. Who could possibly tell the greatest GOT fans the story of Fire And Ice better than someone who has lived & died the tale himself and also lived his entire life at The Great Wall of Westeros growing up with several main characters? And the other cherry on top of this colossal tour experience was the best of the best tour bus driver, Phillip, handling narrow, curvy roads like he was driving a motorcycle rather than a huge bus. This day will last in mine & my husband's memories until our last day. The tour, the guide, the driver, the famous filming sites, lunch, the film clips & photos, the stories & laughter, and last but certainly not least, he group of people we had the opportunity to meet and with whom we had this rare adventure were all outstanding. If anyone wishes to take a Game of Thrones tour, this is THE one to take!!!

Richard the Wildling as our private driver and tour guide!!!! - We just got back from Ireland and our tour with the GoT Tour was second to none! We were a small group (just the three of us) and since the Winterfell Trek from Belfast was not running the day we were there, we had a private tour. And we had Richard the Wildling as a driver and personal tour guide. Richard was an actual featured extra in the film. That's why we called him Richard the Wilding. The places that we went to were so amazing. Wow!!! Now I understand why we started so early. Because when we went to some of the ruins (such as the Inch Abbey), we were literally the own ones there. If we left later, there could be a few more people there. Because of the pristine and not crowded environments, we were able to take some super amazing photos!!!! Richard was super friendly and engaging. There were no "awkward" moments in the car. We had such great conversations. Yes, there were some hiking for this tour (such as Tollymore Forest Park). But the places we got to after the long-ish hike were so worth it. We had a chance to see the exact locations of the GoT scenes! And Richard gave us the inside scoop about how each one of those scenes were made during the filming. Don't wait and don't try to do it yourself to see some of the famous GoT locations. Do this tour!!! Totally worth it!!!

Great experience - Expedition from Dublin: Tullymore Forest then Winterfell. That was really great. Robbie, our guide, has participated in several seasons of GoT, he is a fan of the show and it feels like it. He shares many anecdotes of filming.

Brilliant tour for fans by fans - I really enjoyed my trek through Winterfell. Tollymore Forest is a stunning place you can enjoy even if you've never seen the show. I'm jealous of the locals that get to come here regularly. Gorgeous moss covered trees along a stream. It's a beautiful hike made even more exciting knowing it was used for filming. It rained the entirety of our hike through the forest and around Castle Ward. It made the experience more authentic, as you know the cast and crew were out in these conditions regularly. Nonetheless, Robbie made the tour enjoyable. He is really a delightful human. Shout out to Ian our driver, I kept thinking I'm glad I'm not driving in this. Luckily, it did stop raining briefly enough at the end for us to get cloaked up and nerd out to get some epic photos. It was really fun. Plus, I got to touch Winterfell. Wohoo. It will be fun to rewatch the show now and say, I've been there! I recommend this tour. I flew across 2 oceans to get here, and I'd do it again.

If you are a fan where simply for you breathtaking panoramas - Unfortunately the tour was cancelled at the last minute because of the Guide who fell ill. The Tour Operator offered us another tour still linked to Games Of Thrones which allowed us to see several filming locations and also the Causeway of the Giants. We had a great day with Guide Rob very smiling and very nice.

Cancelled Due To Sickness - I cant actually comment on this trip as the trip got cancelled 2 days prior due to sickness however i can comment that we were offered a full refund, reschedule or to swop onto the Iron Islands tour instead due to our short trip to Belfast i decided to swop onto the Iron Islands instead bit gutted we were offered the Winterfell clothing to wear on the Iron tour but we didn't get offered the clothing so had to wear Iron born instead as an avid House Stark fan it felt like a bit of a let down from a fan point of view as i was really looking forward to seeing Winterfell and the Dire Wolves however the Islands tour made up for it as i was only staying for 5 days i had planned everything in advance so had to juggle a few things maybe next time Belfast x
