Giants Causeway & North Antrim Coast Tour
There are so many reasons to see the North Antrim Coast and some of the fascinating sights that it has to offer! Although some of our personal favourites that you will have the opportunity to see are:
- Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge - The rope bridge, situated roughly 30m above sealevel is enough to make even the bravest think. A National Trust landmark and located right along the coast, it's a fantastic opportunity for some breath-taking scenary and photograph opportunities.
- Dunluce Castle - The now ruins of what use to be a 13th Century castle is still home to some extraordinary features, the journey that is continued along the Antrim Coast will see you land at the castle for a walk around the ruins and to take in some of the fantastic landscape that it has to offer.
- The Giants Causeway - The fan favourite! The Giants Causeway famously known for the Finn McCool stories is right at the top of the island and year on year been Ireland's top attraction. The strange stone formations, the Irish Myths and the quirky history, it's enough to give you an experience that you won't forget!
