Overview

Embark on a journey through the Emerald Isle with a day tour from Dublin to the Giant's Causeway, Belfast, and the Dark Hedges and enjoy a day of Irish charm and breathtaking countryside scenery.

Spend an hour exploring the lively city centre of Belfast. Grab a coffee or a quick bite to eat before hopping back on the bus to discover the city's enchanting surrounding scenery.

The next stop is the Dark Hedges, a tunnel of beautiful beech trees made world-famous by hit HBO series Game of Thrones. This is definitely a photo opportunity not to be missed.

Nor is the spectacular Dunluce Castle! Also featured in Game of Thrones as the setting of House Greyjoy, and located a stone's throw from the Dark Hedges, it makes for another epic photo stop.

Finally, marvel at the geological wonder of the Giant's Causeway, consisting of approximately 40,000 interlocking basalt columns formed by an ancient volcanic eruption that offer stunning views over the roaring Atlantic Ocean.
