Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: The Dark Hedges, off Bregagh Road, Ballymoney Northern Ireland

The Dark Hedges were planted 270 years ago by the Stuart family as a driveway to their mansion Gracehill Manor. It is now the most photographed natural phenomenon in Northern Ireland.

Duration: 20 minutes

Stop At: Giant's Causeway, Causeway Road, Bushmills BT57 8SU Northern Ireland

This must-see World Heritage Site is Northern Ireland's most popular visitor attraction, and for good reason. Magnificent seascape and of course the awe-­inspiring hexagonal/polygonal stone columns that form the legendary Causeway itself, some of which reach 40 feet (12 meters) into the air. The Giant’s Causeway was declared a World Heritage Site in 1986.

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge, 119A Whitepark Road, Ballintoy BT54 6LS Northern Ireland

Carrick­a­Rede is an abandoned fishing island located just a few miles from the Giant’s Causeway. This 90 ­feet deep chasm is traversed by a traditionally built rope bridge which rewards the daring visitor with arguably the best views in the country. When the weather is nice and the bridge is open, you can cross the Rope Bridge for free!

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: City Hall Donegall Square, Belfast BT1 5GS Northern Ireland

You will spend approximately 1 hour in Belfast. Belfast has a very compact city centre as a legacy of the Troubles, also known internationally as the Northern Ireland conflict. Visit the Crown bar, Big Fish, Albert’s Clock and many more attractions in the city centre while you do some shopping or buy snacks for your way back to Dublin.

Duration: 1 hour
