From Dublin: Giants Causeway, Dark Hedges, & Belfast City
What your day looks like
Take a full-day excursion from Dublin to the Giant's Causeway, the Dark Hedges and Belfast City to discover the magnificent grandeur of Northern Ireland's coastline. Take a bus to Northern Ireland and experience the enchantment of the Dark Hedges, a graceful avenue lined with beech trees that will take your mind to another place. These trees, which are immortalised in Game of Thrones as the Kings Road, create breathtaking natural tunnels that make for an amazing experience. Don't pass up the opportunity to use your camera to record this unspoiled beauty. You will see the wonders of the magnificent Giant's Causeway, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Imagine an incredible natural environment formed by more than 40,000 stair-shaped rocks that fall towards the sea. With its breathtaking treks, it's the fourth natural wonder of the nation. You will be enthralled with the stories that surround these rocks. Lastly, on way back to Dublin, we will make a stop in Belfast, where you'll have the opportunity to explore the city at your own pace. You can visit the iconic City Hall and stroll through the vibrant streets. For those interested, we offer an optional Black Cab tour, during which a knowledgeable guide will share insights into Belfast's rich history, covering various events from the Troubles to the city's cultural evolution.

What travelers are saying
Very bad guide, little to non explanation of the places. He was just a driver, the first hour of tour he didn’t say a word. Also in Belfast, you just roamed around, it was not a guided tour at all. Not recommended
Connor was great! He was very informative and pleasant. I highly recommend this tour.
