The Glens of Antrim, an area of outstanding natural beauty, are also included en route to the Giants Causeway. The stunning scenery and intriguing local history make this tour as interesting for the casual viewer as it is fascinating for the superfan.
This part of Ulster has so many direct links to the series! They are nothing short of incredible! This tour will entwine the history, religion, mythology, politics and mysticism of the area to relevant parts of the series itself, coincidence or not, they are all covered on the tour.

Winter Schedule (November-February):
- Check in at 8:45am
- Depart Belfast at 9:00am
- Carnlough
Series six saw Carnlough harbour feature for the first time. This harbour although built in the nineteenth century during the famine years, still retains an olde world charm, which meant that it didn't seem out of place when it first appeared in Game of Thrones. Few go swimming in the harbour today, but there was a time when "a girl just might"!
- Cushendun
This area has many strong links with the series! It is a stunning coastal location with incredibly rugged yet beautiful geological features! What happened in these Cushendun caves took many committed fans by surprise. Melisandre's shadow baby was born here and for a while this area was very "dark and full of terrors"
- Fullerton Arms (Lunch stop @ Game of Thrones themed restaurant)
- Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge
Guaranteed crossing included on our premium tours, option to upgrade to crossing (small fee payable) on the day of your tour. *Subject to numbers.
This area is one of the most naturally stunning of all the sites used in Northern Ireland. The rope bridge plays a major part in a series characters storyline. Although not compulsory, for those who wish to cross the bridge there is one requirement; courage!
- Larrybane
Much has happened in this limestone quarry: Brienne of Tarth defeated Ser Loras of the Flowers, Littlefinger seeks out Catelyn Stark who arrived to negotiate with King Renly. Even Euron, Theon and Yara have made fleeting"appearances!
- Giant’s Causeway
Guaranteed Visitors Centre entrance!
The Giant’s Causeway is Northern Ireland's very own "Eighth wonder of the World." No eloquent description will ever do it justice! Only seeing it is believing. The Giants and Fairies that inhabit this area in Irish mythology make their Game of Thrones equivalents look more like Darby O'Gill and the little people.
- Dunluce
This now-ruined medieval castle was the inspiration for many local fantasy writers! It's cruel past, the enmity between wealthy families and the ruthless resolution of disputes gives Dunluce castle more than a passing resemblance to "the Dreadfort" or "Harrenhal"! It is an ideal, if somewhat chilling location for a photo stop! This Ulster Dreadfort has endured turmoil and murder every bit as horrific as any of the castles of Westeros...
- Dark Hedges
What a finale, the Dark Hedges! You may have escaped the scheming and duplicity of the capital! However, escaping by way of the "Kings Road" has its own dangers. Beware the "Grey Lady," for in reality, Melisandre has nothing on her!
- Return to Belfast at approx 6:00pm
