Detailed itinerary

Stop 1

The Giant’s Causeway is a spectacular formation of more than 40,000 protruding columns made of basalt that jut out of the sea. This landmark is a coastal gem, and one of the most famous hotspots in Ireland steeped in mystery and folklore. It has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986 so a visit there is well worthwhile.

Stop 2

One of the most popular natural phenomena in Northern Ireland, the Dark Hedges were used as a set for the hit TV series Game of Thrones. It was the famous King’s Road in Season 2. The hedges were planted by the Stuart family in the eighteenth century. It was intended to impress visitors as they approached the entrance to their home, Gracehill House. Two centuries later, the trees remain a magnificent sight and have become known as the Dark Hedges.

Stop 3

In 1608, in Bushmills, a legend was born. In that year, King James I granted a very particular licence to this small village, just a few miles inland from Northern Ireland’s rugged north coast. The licence gave Bushmills the right to distil whiskey. Today, Bushmills is home to the oldest licenced whiskey distillery in the world.

Over 400 years later, they’re still making whiskey in Bushmills. They’re still using Irish barley - and the unique water from their own stream too. Four centuries’ worth of craft and experience ensure that these whiskeys are amongst the most celebrated and the most savoured in the world. But as master distiller Colum Egan says, ‘we’re not good because we’re old, we’re old because we’re good’.
