The Giant’s Causeway Private Day Tour - Dublin, Ireland

Discover the UNESCO world heritage site with its 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns and the stunning scenery of the Antrim coast. You will see at first hand the natural beauty of the world-renowned Giant's Causeway, created around 50,000,000 years ago.

Unforgettable views, stunning landscapes, and powerful history await you on The Giant’s Causeway Private Day Tour with Dublin Chauffeur Services.  After heading north on the M1 from Dublin, you will find yourself adventuring along the Mourne coast road. The brisk breeze from the Irish Sea will greet you from the right, while on your left you will feast your eyes along the magnificent Mourne mountains.

Your first stop is the port of Carrick Fergus. Along with its famous castle, Carrick Fergus is steeped in history. During your tour of this timeless treasure, you will learn of the many wars this castle was involved in, including the American War of Independence in 1778.

From Carrickfergus, you will head further north to the causeway itself, admiring the dramatic coastline of east Ulster along your travels.  This spectacular coastline has been shaped over the years by the relentless aggression of the Irish sea, and it leads you to the 8th Wonder of the World:  The Causeway.

Experience the perfectly formed Hexagonal shaped rock pillars rise side by side to a height of 40 feet, see the stunning lava cliffs rise dramatically from the sea, and hear the stories of the giants Fionn McCool of Ireland and Benandonner of Scotland and their many engagements and how they used the causeway as steppingstones to do battle with each other.

After a remarkable day, you will finish your trip with a stop at the village of Bushmills, home of the famous Bushmills Whiskey Distillery, see how this historic brand has been distilled on site since 1608.
