Highlights

The Dark Hedges

See the famous Dark Hedges, a haunting avenue of magical beech trees, through which Arya and Gendry escaped for King’s Landing.

Ballintoy Harbour

Visit Ballintoy where Theon came ashore on Pyke Island, where Theon later rededicated his faith to the ‘Drowned God’ and where Gendry escapes Dragonstone in a rowing boat.

Giant's Causeway

Visit to the UNESCO World Heritage site, the geological marvel of 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, formed 50-60 million years ago. 8.

Cushenden Caves

The Cushenden caves appeared in season two as a cove in the Stormlands – the memorable scene saw Melisandre give birth to the shadow creature. It was also the location of the fight between Euron Greyjoy and Jaime Lannister in season 8.

This epic full day experience visits the Glens of Antrim and the dramatic north coast. We take you to the mysterious Dark Hedges, an avenue of serpentine beech trees through which Arya and Gendry escaped King’s Landing, the Iron Islands beach where Theon dedicated his faith to the Drowned God, the breathtaking Giant’s Causeway and the Stormlands cave where Melisandre gave birth to a dark spirit.

Our guides were all extras in Game of Thrones®.

We carry Iron Born costumes, metal props and Greyjoy banners in the trunk of the coach which we offer to customers at the location of Lordsport on Pyke island. What is dead may never die!
