What you can expect

Depart Belfast from outside Leonardo's Hotel on Great Victoria Street and travel along the coast road, enjoying one of the most scenic drives in Europe. Experiencing some of the most beautiful scenery Ireland has to offer, as you drive through the Glens of Antrim with its many quaint little villages and towns.

Your first stop of the day will be in the quaint little village of Carnlough (30 mins). See its snug and compact harbor, which serves as the central hub of the village. The village has coffee shops and a store for anyone wanting to buy food to take with them for their journey.

After leaving Carnlough, continue along the coast and through the Glens of Antrim with its outstanding natural views and scenery. Learn the history, myths, and legends of the small towns and villages along the route.

The next stop of the day will be at Portaneevy viewpoint (15 mins) with its breathtaking scenery. Look down onto Carrick a Rede rope bridge, built by local fishermen to cross to a small island to land their catch of salmon. From Portaneevy, you will also see a few of the Scottish islands, the Isles of Isla, and the Mull of Kintrye

Leaving Portaneevy, we will continue along the coast road with its magnificent views at Balintoy and White Park Bay.

Our next stop of the day will be at “The Giants Causeway” (1 hour 45 mins), with its 40,000 interlocking basalt columns said to have been formed by a volcanic eruption over 60 million years ago. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a must see experience.

Walk in the footsteps of giants and be amazed by this unique rock formation while learning about the myths and legends about the Causeway.

A short distance from the Causeway is our next stop of the day at Dunluce Castle (10 mins).

Dunluce Castle was built in the 14th century on a large basalt rock and is only accessible via a small bridge from the mainland. The castle is said to be the most romantic medieval castle in Ireland. Be amazed at the beautiful scenery surrounding the castle while being transported back in time.

After leaving the castle, we will make the short journey to the Bushmills Whiskey Distillery (35 mins).

Bushmills is the oldest licensed distillery in the world, granted its license in 1608. Visit the gift shop and sample some of the whiskeys for sale at the distillery bar.

Afterward, make the short journey to the Dark Hedges, made famous by the H.B.O series the Game of Thrones. Then, travel inland back to Belfast arriving at the departure point at around 4.30pm.
