Itinerary

Glens of Antrim

Passing by

The Glen's of Antrim which are situated on the beautiful North Coast,is an area of outstanding beauty, with breathtaking views and is a must see for anyone travelling to our wonderful country. As we make our way through the Glens you will have ample opportunity to take photos of the magnificent scenery and also view the many beautiful fishing villages along the way. So have your camera ready as you don't want to miss these breathing views.
Carrick A Rede Rope Bridge

one hour Admission not included

Around 250 years ago fishermen erected Carrick-a-reed rope bridge for the purpose of fishing for Atlantic salmon. This was a flourishing industry at the time and in any one day there may have been catches of up to 350 fish. However by 2002 you would be lucky to catch the same amount in a whole season. It is no longer used by fishermen during the salmon season. The bridge spans just over 20 metres across and 30 meters ( over 100 feet) above sea level. This can be quite daunting for some visitors and on a few occasions there have been people who can't make it back across and have had to be taken by boat back to the mainland. So come and have a look for yourself.
Giant's Causeway

one hour

The Giant's causeway is the only UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE in Northern Ireland. Often called the Eighth Wonder of the world, the Giant's causeway is a magical, mythical and mysterious place to visit. Made up of over 40 thousand polygonal columns these stones were created more than 60 million years ago. Was it volcanic activity or a dispute between two Giants?? Come and see for yourself and make your own mind up!
Bushmills Distillery

Dunluce Castle

30 min

Situated on the dramatic coastal cliffs of North Antrim, Dunluce castle was first built by the McQuillan family around 1500. In the 17th century Dunluce was the seat of the earls of Antrim and saw the establishment of a small town in 1608. Visitors can learn the dramatic history of Dunluce with tales of banshee's and shipwrecks. The iconic ruins of Dunluce castle have a long and tumultuous history and these dramatic stories will intrigue everyone.
The Dark Hedges

30 min

The Dark Hedges is a beautiful avenue of beech trees planted by the Stuart family in the 18th century and the idea was that they would impress anyone who visited their Georgian mansion ( Gracehill house). Due to the enormous worldwide success of the television series, 'The Game of Thrones' now almost two centuries later the iconic trees have become the most photographed natural phenomenon in Northern Ireland.
