A quick trip north along the coast from Belfast puts you at the gates of Carrickfergus Castle—a massive Norman fortress that has guarded the shores of Belfast Lough for over 800 years. Day trips will take you to explore the imposing stone walls and the historic keep, while a guide explains the centuries of sieges and royal drama. Let the pros handle all travel, so you can wander the harbor or the castle ramparts at your leisure. Tours offer a straightforward way to see one of the best-preserved medieval structures in Ireland and be back in the city center by lunchtime.
