Itinerary
OLD BUSHMILLS DISTILLERY. The area has a long tradition with distillation. According to one story, as far back as 1276, an early settler called Sir Robert Savage of Ard’s before defeating the Irish in battle, fortified his troops with "a mighty drop of acqua vitae" In 1608, a licence was granted to Sir Thomas Phillips Irish adventurer by King James I to distil whiskey.
DUNLUCE CASTLE. We arrive at one of the most dramatic castle ruins in the world, prepare to be amazed at the way this old castle hangs over the edge of the cliffs. Part of the Dunluce Castle fell into the sea in the 1600's, and some servants died in the tragedy. Since that time, it is believed to be haunted by the unfortunate servants.
GIANT’S CAUSEWAY. Stop at the Giant's Causeway (around 1 hour). Explore this UNESCO World Heritage Site with ample time for discovery. Continue to the Giant's Causeway to enjoy around 1 hour exploring the 50,000 interlocking hexagonal stone columns on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. The Causeway consists of 50,000 hexagonal basalt columns formed during a volcanic eruption 60 million years ago.

Autumn at the Giant's Causeway
The places we visited in our six-day trip to Northern Ireland exceeded our expectations, beginning with the Giant's Causeway. The weather in early October was perfect, and we were awestruck by the landscape and the natural rock formations. We spent a few hours outdoors taking photos of the vistas, taking photos for other tourists, and exploring the interior building. The gift shop is delightful, with cards, shirts, upscale apparel items and a wide variety of books for all ages. I bought a beautiful silk tie for my husband, two books for grandkids, and an assortment of postcards that I framed when we got home. My son enjoyed walking along the oceanside pillars, while I hiked path along the bottom of the mountainside. Many tourists spent their time climbing the pathway that leads from the beach all the way to the mountain top. Again, the weather was just perfect. This was our number 1 choice to visit in Ulster, and it didn't disappoint. I'm going to write about a few other sites in another review, "Autumn at Dunluce Castle".
Beware : Tour - not as advertised
Be aware that the Coach operators at no notice changes the itinerary and does not include the items advertised . They have known for some time that busses would not be allowed in to some of the sites and still they have not removed it from their advertising . Definitely not living up to expectations and surprised if the false adverts .
Great Excursion!
My 22 year old grand boys went and they thoroughly enjoyed the excursion. One hadn’t even seen anything on Game of Thrones bit loved seeing everything. The guide was very knowledgeable and fun for them to be with. It was a lot of walking and a long day but the boys didn’t mind at all. They said the driver and the vistas were awesome.
