This six-hour bus tour is designed for cruise passengers docked in Belfast who want to see key sites in Northern Ireland. The tour begins with a pickup at the Belfast port, avoiding the need to pay for transport into the city center. The first stops are in Belfast city, where the bus visits the murals and the peace wall that mark the city’s divided communities, with about 40 minutes spent at each location. Next, the tour travels to the Dark Hedges, a tree-lined avenue planted in the 18th century that was used as a filming location for Game of Thrones. After a 30-minute stop there, the bus continues to the Bushmills whiskey distillery, where visitors have 30 minutes to explore the visitor center, gift shop, and sample or purchase whiskey (this is not a full factory tour). The longest stop is at the Giant's Causeway, where guests have about 90 minutes to see the interlocking basalt columns formed by ancient volcanic activity, one of Northern Ireland's most famous landmarks. The final stop is a 15-minute visit to Portnacreevy Viewing Point, which offers views of the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge and Rathlin Island. Crossing the rope bridge is possible at an extra cost and when weather permits, but it is currently closed to coach groups due to COVID-19 restrictions. The tour returns guests to their ship in good time. The schedule is strict to allow equal time at each stop. This tour only operates when a cruise ship is docked in Belfast.
