Your experience

This journey through the quaint Irish coastal countryside is dotted with pretty cottages, green cliffs, fishing villages, and sea views. Expect to be mesmerized with sights that look right out of a painting.

The Giant wonder

Imagine sitting amongst the 40,000 basalt columns some as high as 12 meters and some engulfed by the shallow shore, all hexagonal in shape arranged like a honeycomb. And ponder how the Giants Causeway came to be — was it Nature’s creation through volcanic eruption or the mythical giant Finn McCool? No matter what you believe, let your imagination run wild and see what stories these rocks have in store for you.

Tales of Two Castles

Get whisked away into the Norman past with your visit to some of the oldest Irish castles. Wander through the 900 year old Carrickfergus castle as you hear the many stories its walls witnessed. Some miles away, perched on the edge of a rock you’ll find the story of Dunsel Castle, a luxurious home of the McDonalds, left to the forces of nature after a terrible accident.

Game of Thrones IRL

Step into the magical world of Game of Thrones. Imagine walking through the King's Road at the Dark Hedges, exploring the city of Bravos at Carnlough Harbour and Storm’s End at the Cashendun Caves. The romantic allure of fresh Irish sea breeze and emerald landscapes will enchant you even if you are not a GoT fan.
