If you have a day in Northern Ireland, do this trip. Even the bus trip is scenic with good guide from Luke, and the lovely Irish music in the background.

Itinerary
Perched dramatically on a basalt outcrop along the north coast of Antrim, Dunluce Castle was once the seat of the MacDonnell clan and has stood as a striking coastal fortress since the 13th century. With a rich history shaped by Viking, medieval, and later influences, the castle remains one of the most iconic landmarks on the Antrim Coast. Its rugged setting overlooking the North Atlantic has made it famous not only in Irish history but also in popular culture, featuring in Game of Thrones as Pyke and inspiring C.S. Lewis in The Chronicles of Narnia. Please note: this is a photo stop only. There is no entry to the castle included, but there will be time to take photos and enjoy the views.
Stop at the Giant's Causeway (around 1 hour 30 minutes). Explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site with ample time for discovery. Continue to the Giant's Causeway to enjoy around 1.5 hours exploring the 40,000 interlocking hexagonal stone columns on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Explore the place and hear the legend of Finn McCool. The Causeway consists of 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns formed during a volcanic eruption 60 million years ago.
Spend 20 Minutes to take some amazing pictures of the most photographed tourist attraction in Northern Ireland. This fantastic line of trees was used in the filming of many tv shows including Game of Thrones and transformers and more
Entrance fee included you get to spend 90 Minutes to explore this museum that will get you a historical insight of Belfast, the titanic and how it was build If you wanted you could spend more time and take the 20 minute walk back to Belfast instead of coming back with the bus

Great commentary on the bus. Be aware ticket does not include entry in Giants Causeway gift centre. Otherwise a great experience.
Nice and relaxed, suitable for everyone to enjoy. The tour delivered all that was promised, each destination was exceptional.
Very interesting and diverse stops during the tour. Very knowledgeable and outgoing guide who kept the drives between stops entertaining.
This was a great tour - what wasn’t mentioned was that it was a tour that started in Dublin and picked up in Belfast so it was a much larger tour group than I expected. Also we did a detour past the peace walls, which I had already been too, which then cut off time at the Titanic Museum which was disappointing, especially when some folks decided to stay in the bus to the museum and not inform the guide and he got flummoxed which again had us held up for the museum!
We had one day in Belfast and this tour maximized our experience. The guide was very informative and helpful. I highly recommend.
Huge disappointment. They roped off all the stairs and there was only a pokey lift in a dark corner to get to the next floor. I don’t use lifts and no one could help me. Don’t go if you don’t use lifts.
A great day with numerous sites. An excellent driver Thomas. Our guide Jacob was so knowledgeable and engaging making it a really fun day. A reasonable amount of walking but not too tough
100% must visit experience if in Belfast. A superb exhibition and really thought provoking. Staff are great. Location is perfect on the exact site the Titanic was built.
May was great and driver Avil was also great. Very informative and the spots we stopped at were beautiful and amazing. Enjoyed the day
1. We didn't know time was changed and missed the bus. My phone doesn't work here. We were at right place till 9.20am. How do we get our money back.
A pleasant experience that saved the need to hire car. Visited plenty.places other than two on offer. Friendly guide and driver
If you are on a cruise, do not use Viator. Viator did not help us when there was a conflict with our disembarkation time and meeting time. They took our money and even though I called them and took over 2 hours texting and chatting with them, we could not get a refund.
The Giant’s Causeway is one of the most amazing natural wonders that I’ve ever seen. The Titanic Experience tells the story of Belfast and its connection in a big way. Many interactive displays…
This is the tour you take of everything there is to see in Northern Ireland after going on a Black Cab Tour. The driver and guide were absolutely lovely and entertaining. There really isn't much to see or much joy in any part of Northern Ireland...except the pubs do serve great food. I would highly recommend this tour. Just don't sign up to spend a week here no matter how much your husband loves golf. There is simply no place at all for revenge shopping.
We had a great time! Our driver Brian and our tour guide Noel were so knowledgeable and were great to spend the day with. We got on in Belfast and traveled with those who came up from Dublin!!
This was an amazing tour and really not expensive. My wife and I live near a Titanic attraction in the States and this put it to shame. Very interesting, spoke of the history of H&W, the ship and the passengers. Very little to do with the movie so if that is what you are looking for you should skip.
It was educational and telling We learned a lot If we had known the tour originated in Dublin we would have booked another smaller tour Brian and Luke were great
We arrived at our bus for the Giants Causeway tour, and Jim the driver apologized saying there was not enough seats on the bus. We were shocked. I have no words.
We started with the bus trip to the Giants Causeway with a stop at the Dark hedges, and then onto the Titanic Museum in Belfast Our tour guide, Quiggs, did an amazing job talking about history of Belfast and all about the Giants Causeway. He was extremely knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. The tour company was called Finn McCool’s and I would highly recommend booking with them!! The bus ride was comfortable and included a restroom. Our tour ended at the Titanic Museum, which was quite busy, but it was still an amazing experience. You had plenty of time to spend in each location. We were all very happy with the tour and especially with our tour guide, Quiggs 😄👍👍
I don't like to write bad reviews, but there were some things that were less than desirable on this tour. First, you need to know that this trip ORIGINATES in Dublin. We took it from Belfast and we got on the bus there were few seats and ended up in the back of the bus and could not sit together. When we got on, the tour guide did not re-introduce himself to those of us who got on in Belfast. Still do not know his name. The driver's name was Daz and only know that because the guide referred to him a few times. The guide was a young fellow who had studied theater and drama. He was entertaining and did have a good knowledge of where we were going and what we were seeing. He was friendly, so no knocks against him except the re-introduction thing. There were a couple of photo stops along the way to the Giants Causeway that were Game of Thrones oriented which was good. The stop at the GC was fine, except that the guide warned us not to go into the visitor's center or else get charged 25 pounds. The was a nice little restaurant there and we were able to get coffee and get out of the rain and wind for a bit. There was a bit of confusion as to when and where the bus would be back, so we had to take shelter in the restaurant. The stop at the Dark Hedges was a little too short. By the time you walked from the bus to the Hedges, it was time to turn around and walk back to the bus. We were staying in Belfast, so opted to end our tour at the Titanic Museum. We were glad we did that because we would not have had enough time to really see the museum given the time we would have been required to get back on the bus. There is a LOT of information in that museum. My recommendation is that if you want to take a tour like this, find one that originates in Belfast (not sure that exists).
We were picked up in Belfast. The Finn Tour originated in Dublin. The tour contained 3 different tour groups that all went to the Giant’s Causeway but the group split up to see different attractions in Belfast. Our guide Harry charged travellers £20 each to change their itinerary in Belfast. While travelling by bus to the Giant’s Causeway the guide Harry gave a history of Ireland and its turmoils. The most unfortunate part was he presented the information as if he was auditioning for a Shakespearean play. His choice of words, phrasing and intonation made it extremely difficult to understand. Many tourists on our bus of 3 different combined tours, were not English first speakers. They couldn’t comprehend the ramblings of our guide Harry so as a result they just talked loudly amongst themselves. It would have been better to have a “down to earth” Irish guide that was actually interested in interacting with the guests. It would have been a much more pleasant tour to have a guide share their knowledge of Ireland in a jovial manner without acting with arrogance. We did see the Giant’s Causeway, a row of trees that meant nothing if you didn’t watch Game of Thrones and we were late arriving to the Titanic museum. Therefore we felt very rushed and were not able to take our time in such a fascinating museum.
Great way to see the Giants Causeway, Dark Hedges, Titanic museum and get an insight of the history and culture of Belfast. Our tour guides Brian and Luke, was very informative and entertaining.
The tour guide and driver had a wealth of knowledge and brought the tour to life. Nothing was too much trouble snd their professionalism was outstanding it was just fabulous
The tour guide was fabulous, very informative and to aline the history with music was very clever, relaxing, and for me so memorable. The coach driver was also a very steady safe driver. A very pleasant trip.
Godfrey our tour guide was amazing! Very informative, well organised and really looked after us a group.
Tourguide was engaging and informative. Plenty of time afforded at the Causeway and other stops. Highly recommend.
Absolutely frigging awesome experience!!!! Would definitely recommend to everyone. We all enjoyed it so much inc our two young children
It was a great tour! Our tour guide Luke was great and kept us well entertained during the journey. Giants Causeway is absolutely breathtaking and the Titanics museum is filled with history, displayed beautifully. The added Game of Thrones film sites made this a perfect 3-in-1 tour.
Jared and Brian - both very animated with a dynamic gift for story telling. They made the trip even more spectacular with their side stories. The views of the Giant’s Causeway are breathtaking (again, the stories that went along with them added to their mystique). If you get either of these two or both-you will be in for a treat
Jarred was an incredible tour guide, funny, informative and kept the trip fun! Jarred had a condensed but detailed summary of the history of ireland from the first settlers through to the present which was a pleasure to listen to as we were driving. Our driver Brian was also very informative with some information on the recent history of the areas conflicts. It was snowing during our trip which was lovely and Jarreds good humour extended to the snow as well. 100% would reccommend Jarred and Brian as a wonderful tour duo!
The causeway was spectacular and the Titanic Experience was deeply moving. Our guide, Jarrod was knowledgeable and personable. We got bonus narration from our driver, Brian, who shared his own history in Belfast.
Very enjoyable trip. Heard stories and learnt facts about Ireland. We explored some beautiful parts of Northern Ireland that I never knew existed. I feel everyone who visits Ireland feels at home some way or another.
Titanic Museum was 1st class. The rest of the tour was overrated. The Causeway was seriously a waste of time except for amazing baked goods at the hotel outside of the causeway. King of thrones filming location was a drive by not much to see. Save your money and just do the Titanic and you’ll be smiling the rest of the day.
Giant's Causeway was even more stunning than expected, and the Titanic Experience was incredible! The stop at Dark Hedges was cheesy and rushed. Wish we would've known that the bulk of the tour group leaves from Dublin early in the morning and makes a quick stop in Belfast just to pick up a handful of people. There were like 7 of us at the specified address 15 minutes early as instructed, panicking about why the bus wasn't there.
Our tour guide was funny, witty, and really made the trip. Giant’s Causeway was absolutely breathtaking and a must-see wonder. We really disliked the Titanic museum. It was SO overcrowded that you couldn’t even get close to see or hear any of the exhibits. We got out as quickly as possible (along with a few others) to just sit in the museum’s restaurant and wait for our group. We wished we had done the tour without the museum.
A fabulous all encompassing sensory experience. Awesome and heart-rending in equal measure. Do not miss this exhibition!
Quigg, the guide was fantastic! His knowledge of history and unbiased-not just anyone could do this. The driver was very good also (but can’t remember his name)
We had a great guide and driver! Not only did we get to see several historically significant sites in one day, but we were provided a fantastic overview of each tour stop (including myths and legends). This is a great way to experience Northern Ireland if you have a tight schedule.
Excellent full day your, crammed enough of each attraction in and the tour guide and driver were excellent…..the travel time flew by as a result!
The sights were great but some inaccurate info in the description. This tour starts in Dublin and by the time we got to get on the bus in Belfast there were only scattered single seats left and no way for a couple to sit together. The meeting point spot description in the directions is very wrong. The address is not at 31 Chichester St., but in front of the building at 70 Chichester St, which is across the street. The instructions say that it is outside the entrance to the Top Shop, which has not been there for a few years, although it is a short way down the street across from the Garrick Bar. If it had not been for a gentlemen at the desk inside 31-35 Chichester St., who directed us across the street (as he has been doing for a long time) to the exact pick up spot, we would not have found it, as there is no sign. FIX your instructions.
Ryan had lots of information and brought some fun as well. Sights were amazing. Would definitely go again
Giant's Causeway was a spectacular sight. Make sure you bring rain gear! A long walk out and back but there are buses (1 GBP each way). Titanic Museum was extremely well done and very interesting. We especially loved the last sections related to the Ballard expeditions to find and film the wreckage on the bottom. My only minor complaint on the Viator tour was being dropped off at a different place than the pick-up (I'm sure it disclosed this upfront but we missed it) and the directions our guide gave to return were awful - had to ask a friendly pedestrian and would say Belfast natives are very helpful.
Fantastic causeway was a sight to see rain ruined the experience slightly Pub at top was friendly god service hr8 food Titanic was superb I learnt so much Best organised museum trip I’ve been on
Not the ideal start to the day, the meeting point on the app and emails said ‘outside Topshop’ which has been closed for over two years so left many waiting asking whether it was the right place, coupled with the bus being 10 minutes late after being warned of we were late then it would go without us. A pleasant driver and guide who gave out a clear agenda with times and meeting points. A bit underwhelmed by the lack of local history and information in between the meeting points, it felt a bit like Flora was reading from a script and we learned nothing that we couldn’t have if travelling car. We had a nice day and Causeway is fantastic, disappointed entry to the visitors centre wasn’t included as it indicated that no extra charges to attractions when we booked, probably explained why we were dropped off just before the car park and not inside. The Titantic experience was also worth the trip. In hindsight I would have hired a car and spent more time stopping at other costal areas on the way to Causeway and visited the Titantic experience on a different day and 90 minutes is tight to enjoy both.
Loved Giants Causeway and the amazing scenery. Great tour guide, very friendly. Titanic exhibit was really interesting.
Trip is run by Finn McCool tours, Our driver was Tomas and guide Phil. Arrived on time. Coach was comfortable. Phil gave us plenty of history and information. Fantastic guide good laugh, friendly very clear to hear. We got some Irish tunes too. Stunning views of the country side. Plenty of time at the Giants causeway. The nook pub at the Causeway is lovely, went in for a drink but was quite packed, hard to get served. But there is also the visitor centre or the hotel. Seen a few lovely villages on the way to the Dark Hedges (more the Game of thrones fans). The Titanic Museum was fantastic, due to it being the Easter hols it was fairly busy and maybe a bit rushed. A bit more time. Large queue to get on some ride. Although one way system would have liked a map of the museum. Also would have liked to get one of the audio headsets. But still very interesting. On the whole a good day out well organised and worth the money, shout out to Phil and Tomas 👏
Noel and Gabor made a good team. We enjoyed both parts of our tour and found that we spent just the right amount of time at each place. Would definitely recommend.
The whole trip was fun! The scenes were beautiful, the charter bus was comfortable, and the attractions were exciting! Patrick and Vick did an excellent job getting us around and providing some information and entertainment throughout the day. Great value for your money, would highly recommend!
We booked the GOT tour with Finn tours through viator and we’re glad they paired us with Daniel and George. We hit every scheduled stop on time and Daniel was very informative about everything on the way. He even sang us a couple of songs with his guitar (which is difficult to do on a moving bus). Although the weather didn’t cooperate, all the stops were still a marvel to look at, even if not really a GOT fan. All in all, a good day and if you can request these two, do so.....it’s way worth it!
