Went on the Giants Causeway and Castles tour today and it was brilliant! Learned a lot about the history of NI and the craic from Dave and Stuart was hilarious the witty jokes were humorous and their banter was fab the tour started at 9am and we were back in Belfast City centre for 5.30pm saw many notable castles and the views of the coastline up north were stunning truly incredible seeing the breathtaking Giants Causeway rock formation I found this more beautiful to admire than the famous dark hedges (game of thrones fans will notice and love) the dark hedges didn't look as good up close in reality it's in the middle of private land?, hotel/landscaped with tractors that go up and down the path the trees have been chopped down and quite bare so you can tell anyone's photos are heavily edited as in winter they aren't as pretty It was a lunch break stop here and as I'm not a fan of the TV show game of thrones I didn't know what the dark hedges were until I read more information displayed around the area there were hoardes of fans soon after our bus arrived so be quick to get your photos in at this location the buffet on offer was £14.95, toilets were spotless and views lovely across fields but highlight for me definitely has to be the final stop at the Causeway the coast is beautiful we stayed here for 1.5 hours only wish it had been longer didn't want to leave lol thankyou for a lush day out I would highly recommend and will book again if I return in the future

How Stuart can narrate continuously while driving for the whole day, I cannot fathom. Makes me think of those one person bands. He has all the info and it’s bits about Belfast, Ireland and GoT. It was an excellent trip. You can’t go over the rope bridge anymore as a bus load of people, but you’d have to return on your own if you want this. Instead we got a view of the bridge from a vantage point. Castle entries to Carrickfurgus and Dunluce (Castle Greyjoy) were discounted but optional. Just about enough time to go inside. We had 2 hrs at Giant’s Causeway which I thought was enough to do the longer walk both ways and have time to take photos.

The tour was great! David was really nice and told us loads of interesting things about the places. Would definitely recommend it! The only thing though is that I think one hour for lunch time + the Dark Hedges was rushed, would’ve liked to have more time as the queue to lunch alone took more than 20 min.

Had a great time on the Giants Causeway tour today. The guide / driver was fun & informative, the coach was comfortable and there was plenty of time offered at the various stops. The coastal road is beautiful, and you get a great view from the coach. Great value for money too. Highly recommended. I am, however, still disappointed that we didn’t meet David’s grandma. Maybe next time!

Really comfortable trip, good timings, informative and very entertaining, highly recommended! It was a combination of Giant's Causeway/other sites of interest and Game of Thrones sites: we're not 'Thronies' but it was still interesting. Two hours goes super-quickly at the Giant's Causeway, especially in the sunny weather we had. Overall, well put together and a very good day out.

Absolutely loved this tour and it did not bother me that it was a combined Giants Causeway and Game of Thrones tour. I’ve never watched an episode of Game of Thrones in my life. However, the facts of things that were told on the tour were still interesting. But our guide Stuart was an absolute legend. How on earth he stores all that information inside his brain is beyond me. It’s an absolute must if you come to Belfast.

The giant causeway/game of thrones tour was fantastic. The tour takes you on the highlights of some of the GoT locations and ends at the giants causeway, with Stuart the driver giving not only information on the sites but also local information too. Not only that, Stuart was a fantastic tour guide, he was engaging, knowledgeable but also tremendously funny! Couldn't recommend it enough. Such a great day and way to see some of Ireland! My only regret is that I didn't take any cash to tip Stuart at the end as he really deserved one!

Coach driver/tour guide was great, he was friendly and informative telling us facts about Belfast as we were driving to locations as well as telling us fables and myths. The coach was comfortable however 2 of the seats we sat on were actually broke! The first location was Carrickfergus Castle which was nice but not a must see, no relevance to GOT and only view from the outside for a quick photo. Next was Carnlough harbour which was sweet and a good photo opportunity to see the steps in GOT. We were looking forward to seeing the Cushenden Caves which was involved in GOT but didn't realise the coach tour didn't involve this during the Winter months, this was disappointing as we drove past it! The Dark Hedges were cool to see. We went to a viewing point to see the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge was good to see, just a massive shame it was closed as that would of been a great location to stop at properly rather than a quick photo from a distance. Next was lunch at the Fullerton Arms which was lovely. Giants Causeway was brilliant, enjoyed the guided tour and then had time to explore freely although could have spent longer there! Great sight to see and fab location for photos. Lots of uphill/downhill walking but shuttle bus also available. Lastly was a stop at a viewing point to see Dunluce Castle which was a quick stop for a photo opp. The journey was smooth and enjoyable, but would of liked a few more GOT related stops.

If you want to get it all in while you’re in Belfast, this is the tour for you. We booked the Causeway Tour, and it was a proper full day 9-6:30pm. It was 100% worth it though! Stuart was our bus driver/tour guide and he was so good! Even the execution of his corny dad jokes landed… definitely worth checking out if you’ve only got a few days in Belfast/Northern Ireland
