Epic tour to be sure to be sure 🍀

Markas_D, Mar 2026
It Was fantastic bring a jacket just incase we had nice sun but in shade can be cool at times. It was fantastic everything was the food in hotel they arrange is epic tour guide driver all epic. Sights you see epic not to rushed either amazing tour the guide is full of life loves what he does i highly recommend it. Bring charger the vechicle had usb ports and they get you into g.o.t clothing as well at one point i wished i had darker clothing on for my bottom half to fit with the costume look. so if ud like to look the part more go dark on the bottom half especially.

Very poor service

This tour was cancelled and I still do not have a refund. I cannot get a reply to any emails I have sent

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Hi Karen, Thanks for your feedback. Yes indeed, your tour was cancelled but since you booked your tour through Viator/Tripadvisor, they are responsible for issuing your refund. I see that by the time you posted this review, your booked was refunded by Viator. When you don't book directly with a tour operator, the party responsible for refunding you is the OTA. You seem to have asked Viator for your refund, and you got it immediately! It's that simple. Thank you for your understanding.

Great memorables moments.

CeliaTorres_C, Sep 2024
It was a great experience, lots of fun, well guided. We as family enjoyed. Robie is an excellent tour guide.

Thanks for your review, Celia!

Elizabeth_H, Sep 2024
I can't say enough great things about this tour! Andrew was absolutely phenomenal and hilarious and put the whole experience over the top. The sights were breathtaking and the pub lunch was delicious. We got to hear a lot of information about how the show was filmed and some really interesting behind-the-scenes tidbits. This tour was the reason we came to Northern Ireland and it was well worth it! I cannot recommend it enough.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you so much, Elizabeth, for your fantastic review! We're thrilled to hear that you had such an incredible time on the tour. Andrew certainly has a knack for making the experience memorable with his humor and insight, and we're glad you enjoyed the beautiful sights and delicious pub lunch. It’s great to know that the behind-the-scenes stories added an extra layer of excitement to the day. We’re so happy the tour was the highlight of your trip to Northern Ireland, and we can't thank you enough for recommending it! We hope to welcome you back again soon!

PERFECT TOUR FOR GAME OF THRONES FANS

PeterRollsroy_S, Jul 2024
I love everything about this tour. The histories and trivias the tour guide has shared us. There's no dead air with Andrew our tour guide who happened to be a previous extra in the GOT series! How cool is that! He is witty and very informative. The scenic spots are surreal and stunning! With regard to the trip duration, we are very much at home and comfortable on a VIP coach heading north to see these beautiful places! Amazing Tour Organisers and Highly commendable! Will book again with them in the future!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you so much, Peter, for your glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that you loved every aspect of the tour. Andrew is indeed an incredible guide, and his firsthand experience as a GOT extra truly adds a special touch to the experience. We're so glad you enjoyed the beautiful scenic spots and felt comfortable on the VIP coach. It's wonderful to hear that you found the tour both informative and fun, with no shortage of interesting stories and trivia. Thank you for your kind words about our team, and we can't wait to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure in the future!

Not your average Giants Causeway tour

Athena_D, Jul 2024
We watched GoT but aren't super fans. We mainly booked for the Giants Causeway and because we thought a themed tour might be more fun than hearing about The Troubles etc. which we already know about. Andrew was really engaging and made sure the time between stops passed quickly. We enjoyed hearing about his personal experiences an extra on the show. He also helped us choreograph a 'fight' photo with our swords and Iron-born costumes.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you so much for your lovely review, Athena! We’re so glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour, even as casual Game of Thrones fans. It’s fantastic that Andrew was able to keep the journey engaging with his personal stories and insights from his time as an extra on the show. We’re also happy you had fun with the fight photo—those Iron-born costumes really bring out the character in everyone! It’s great to know that the Giants Causeway and the themed tour provided a fun twist on your day. Thanks again for sharing your experience, and we hope to welcome you on another adventure soon!

DO IT!!

Lauren_C, Jul 2024
The BEST tour. Andrew is amazing and it wouldn’t have been even close to as great without him. So glad we did this tour!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thanks Lauren. What is dead may never die! ⚔️🦑⚔️

So much fun!

Kayla_R, Jun 2024
I loved this experience. Andrew was awesome and I am so glad that I decided to do this. Someone I had been traveling with suggested I come along after my flight was delayed and I am so glad that I did. I would definitely recommend doing this tour.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Thank you, Kayla! We're thrilled to hear that joining us on the tour turned out to be a highlight of your trip. It’s wonderful that Andrew made the experience memorable, and we’re so glad your travel change led you to us. Thank you for recommending the tour, and we hope to welcome you back for more adventures in the future!

Best experience EVER!

Liana_F, May 2024
Absolutely amazing tour! Fun, educational, just the right amount of stops for bathroom and food/snacks. Beautiful landscapes and awesome "behind the scenes" details about Game of Thrones filming and fun facts. Andrew was literally the BEST guide! Highly recommend! Don't leave Belfast without doing this tour if you are a G.O.T. fan!

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Hi Liana, thanks for such a rave review for Andrew and our Iron Islands & Giant's Causeway. What is dead may never die, but rises again.....⚔️🦑⚔️

A perfect tour to live the GoT history and the beauties of Ireland

Arthur_T, Oct 2023
We were in our honeymoon and we are both big fans of Game of Thrones. It was a VERY GOOD tour, all the places we visited are beautiful and our guide Richard is a really nice guy, very funny, gave us a lot of interesting information and made our trip perfect!

Response from Host, Mar 2024

Hi Arthur, We are so happy you chose to spend time with us on your honeymoon! You guys are obviously Thrones fans. We are delighted to hear you had the perfect trip with Richard. Oj bad days it keeps us going when we read reviews telling us we add value to honeymooner Thrones fans. We are at your service, Valar Dohaeris ⚔️🦑⚔️

Beautiful and lots of fun

Jill_B, Aug 2023
Although my husband was the only one of us that is into GOT, it was a great experience full of beautiful sights and our tour guide Robbie was so enthusiastic and had a lot of interesting insight and stories as he was an extra on the show. Lunch was the smoothest of any of the various tours we went on since Robbie got our orders in advance and we all went to the same place at the same time vs. trying to hurry up and find a place to grab a bite while stressing about getting back to the bus in time. Plus the food was excellent! Highly recommend this tour!

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Hi Jill, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted that you and your husband enjoyed the experience, even with just one of you being a Game of Thrones fan. It's great to hear that Robbie's enthusiasm and insider stories made the tour special for you. We're also thrilled that the lunch arrangements added to the smoothness of your day. Your recommendation means the world to us—thank you!

Andrew was incredible!

Ana_M, Jul 2023
Andrew was amazing he really brought the experience to life as he had incredible knowledge of the show

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Hi Ana, thanks for a great review for our Iron Islands tour with Andrew as guide! ⚔️🙏⚔️

Great GOT and Giants Causeway tour with an excellent tour guide

Peter_B, Jul 2023
Our tour guide for the day was Richard who had been an extra on Game of Thrones and knew all about Game of Thrones locations. He also added his own personal insights and knowledge of GOT which was really interesting and entertaining. The delivery of his commentary was pure and a little rough around the edges but only added to a great day up the coast. Richard also knew the coastal areas and Giants Causeway very well. Lunch at the pub (at our cost) was slick and well coordinated. If you like GOT, you will love this your. Richard is a hoot.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Hi Peter, Thanks for taking the time to write a great review for Richard and our Iron Islands tour and for recommending it to other GoT fans! ⚔️🦑⚔️

Fantastic experience!

Angie_S, May 2023
This was an amazing day out, well worth every penny! Richard kept us entertained all day with his stories and anecdotes from Game of Thrones, and gave a really knowledgeable tour of interesting sites from the show. We especially loved the Iron Islands and getting to dress up and play with swords! Highly recommended for any GOT fans in the area for a visit.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Hi Angie, Thanks for a great review and aren't you glad you seized the opportunity to get into the Iron Born spirit on this tour. What is dead may never die, but rises again harder and stronger! ⚔️🦑⚔️

Outstanding trip with an animated and engaging tour guide, Richard, who participated in a number of seasons as an extra

Chris_J, Jun 2022
Great trip and insight's into filming of GOT. Still pictures and onsite video scenes helped attendees get a better picture of how the site contributed to show. Highly recommend others.

So much fun!!

Christen_K, Apr 2022
The tour guides knowledge of both the area, and it's connection to GoT.......he was very thoughtful to all attendees, making sure everyone was having a good time.

Enjoyable

Kamran_A, Aug 2021
My partner booked this tour for my birthday, we paid £50 per person which i thought was quite steep as other tours were at £35. This tour is aimed at those Game of Thrones fans as Robbie our tour guide host was incredibly full if GOT behind the scenes etc. My partner had no clue about GOT but instead mesmerised over the breathtaking views. Robbie was always smiling and happy to answer queations. Given the price perhaps onboard snacks could have been provided such as bottled water at-least. Lunch was at a pub which you have to pay for, menu did not cater to vegan/vegetarians, just one chickpea curry. We packed our own snacks and sandwiches anyway because it was not clear in terms of lunch. It’s defo aimed at GOT fans Giants Causeway more of the scenary and hikes. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes, we did over 20,000 steps in total. It did rain and we were quite wet and damp, but towards 2pm the sun came out. The trip began at 0730-1730. prompt. Defo recommend.0

Absolutely loved this tour!

Anna_T, Jan 2020
Richard was the tour guide and he was fantastic!! Had a brilliant time on the bus and at each site. Richard had so much insider knowledge of the show due to working as an extra, which was great and happy to take pics of everyone (and a cheeky selfie!). The sites visited were awesome and Giant's Causeway, Carrick-a-rede Rope and the Dark Hedges are a must, such wonderful attractions. Very nervous crossing the bridge, but so worth it. I thought we had a good amount of time at each location. Loved seeing Northern Ireland through this tour.

Response from Host, Jan 2020

Hello Troiania, Thank you very much for the excellent review of your tour with Richard. We are very happy to hear you didn't let your nerves win and you crossed the rope bridge! We hope you'll return to try our Winterfell tour next time. Valar Dohaeris

Excellent

lisa_K, Jan 2020
Excellent! This tour was well worth it. It exceeded our expectations. Brian, our tour guide was incredible. He was an extra on GOT, and knew all the little extra details and was very passionate. We loved it!

Response from Host, Jan 2020

Hi Lisa, Thank you for the excellent review. We're thrilled to hear the tour exceeded your expectations! Valar Dohaeris

Best Tour!

Terri_G, Dec 2019
We had a group of 7, but had to split the group up to ensure we all could go on this tour. It was well worth the split! Each group had a wonderful time and had their own stories to tell! We each had a different driver which makes the experience unique! Would highly recommend this tour!!

Response from Host, Dec 2019

Hello Bounty, Thank you for the excellent review. It is great to hear that despite your group needing to take separate tours you all had unique and memorable experiences. Our guides and well as our drivers work hard to ensure everyone has a great time. Valar Dohaeris

Game of Thrones Tours

Oluf_H, Oct 2019
Excellent trip with an excellent and funny guide, which actually participated in Game of Thrones. He had many funny stories to tell and excellent insight in movie production. I also have attended the Winterfell Tour and Dubrovnik Old Town Tour with the same company, nothing at all to complain about. Very profesional company indeed.

Awesome tour

Christopher_S, Oct 2019
Our guide Richard was fantastic very natural and down to earth he made this tour awesome. You get the touristy part but you also get to see a lot of places from the series which was excellent. It was s great day out

Response from Host, May 2021

Hi Chris, Thanks for your great review and apologies I'm only writing my response now! Richard the wildling is indeed down to earth and a humble guy at heart - Valar Dohaeris, all men must serve :)

GOT awesome

Valdine M, Aug 2019
Richard - a "Wildling extra" was fantastic. Brought the humor and rawness that you hope and expect on such a tour. He did a great job toning down a little - one tourist brought along children. There were warnings that it wasn't appropriate for under 18, but we still had an amazing time.

Response from Host, May 2021

Hi Valdine, Glad to hear you had a great tour, even on Richards 'rated PG' version of his tour! He is raw and authentically Northern Ireland but he is humble at heart and wants everyone to enjoy their time in Northern Ireland. Valar Dohaeris - all men must serve :)

What is Dead Will Never Die

Carol_J, Jul 2019
Our tour guide was Richard and bus driver was Paul. Both were great at their jobs. Richard was actually an extra in Game of Thrones as a Wildling. He gave many insights to the actual sets throughout the series. He kept us moving throughout the tour as there were many locations to see, but never made us feel rushed or like he did not have time to answer all our questions. This was an awesome experience to see all the different locations with fellow GOT fans. I know there are other GOT tours but be careful, you get what you pay for and this was definitely worth the price of admissions.

Response from Host, May 2021

Hi Scareall, Thanks for calling our Iron Islands tour an awesome experience, of course we agree :) Richard and Paul are a great couple on the road, Richard as you say was a Wildling in GOT and he's the same in real life, whereas Paul keeps things running like clockwork. I'm glad you didn't feel rushed, so much to see and do in 10 hours. Thanks again for taking the time to type a review, we really appreciate it. What is dead may never die! :)

Disfrazarse siempre si

Santiago_C, Sep 2023
Fue un día genial, visitar estos lugares tan bonitos de la costa irlandesa y parte de la serie fue una experiencia inolvidable. Disfrazarse fue lo más divertido del día, no lo dudéis!

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Hi Santiago, ¡Muchas gracias por su reseña de nuestro recorrido por las Islas del Hierro y la Calzada del Gigante! Nos alegra mucho que lo hayas pasado muy bien visitando estos hermosos lugares de la costa irlandesa y experimentando parte de la serie. Nos alegra especialmente saber que disfrutó vistiéndose con nuestros disfraces. Es una de nuestras partes favoritas del recorrido y es una excelente manera de sumergirse en el mundo de Juego de Tronos. ¡Esperamos volver a verte pronto en otra gira!
