About this activity
An ancient volcanic eruption and spectacular rock structure has long been the source of colourful legend in the form of the Giant’s Causeway, a UNESCO world heritage site. And is it any wonder, the symmetrical formations seem almost perfect enough to have been the efforts of a hard-working giant! Let the adventure begin! .Upon reaching the Giant’s Causeway, prepare to be met by the most spectacular sight – a giant among giants in the world of natural wonders. This wild and beautiful formation is a consequence of ancient volcanic activity, the solidified lava now layered across 40,000 hexagonal columns stretching for a distance of over 6 kilometres.we head for the heights of the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge. Spanning 66 feet and constructed originally by fisherman more than 350 years ago, it crosses a deep chasm at a height of almost 100 feet, making it the go-to spot for that perfect photograph of your holiday in Ireland. A head for heights comes highly recommended for this daring crossing!
A brief visit to take in the spectacle of the Dark Hedges is also on the cards. This series of imposing 200 year old beach trees will be familiar to followers of Game of Thrones, featured in season 2 of the series as the King’s Road. Then we take another short stop and an opportunity to photograph the dramatic surroundings and timeless beauty of 13th century Dunluce Castle. Finally, with talk of science and tales of giants, we leave the mindboggling beauty of the Antrim coastline behind and get back on board our luxury coach for the return leg of your tour to bustling Dublin city

Eugine was super friendly and very informative during the tour. The sights and history of the tour was simply breathtaking and I highly recommend booking this tour specially with eugine.
Ok we had a good tour guide but there were a few issues. We did not get the big roomy bus since there were not enough people. Then there are not enough warnings about weather issues on the website. Since it was to windy the rope bridge was closed,. That's half the trip! Got stuck going into Belfast instead. I really didn't want to but didn't have much choice. If I knew ahead of time I would have check the weather and canceled this trip and done something else. Beware!
Well organised tour and perfect for seeing some of the countryside outside of the city. Eugene was our guide was also very knowledgable and friendly.
Absolutely amazing! Incredible walks, tremendous views! We had beautiful weather! The crowds were civil, however there was such a diversity in the visitors, English was not heard often and the "rules of the road" were difficult yo read.
Great tour. Long day with the 3 hrs to and back but sites are totally worth it. Driver knew what he was talking about, very interesting.
We had a really great time on this trip.Bryan (Brian, Brien) was great, knowledgeable and accommodating! I would highly recommend this to anyone!
Giants Causeway and the Carrick a Rede rope bridge crossing absolutely the must-see places when visit Ireland. They were just amazing! We traveled from Dublin for the one-day tour on this new, comfortable coach bus, totally about 12 hours trip. It was long drive sitting on bus, but with wi-fi on board (and USB charging) and beautiful scenery on road, time passed by quickly. Our driver Bryan made us feel welcoming and provided us the information needed and also took us to a nice friendly cafe
