    About this experience

    The North of Ireland is now a must-see for any traveler arriving in Ireland. This tour enables you to focus on Northern Ireland, the little corner of our motherland so present in world headlines since 1969 but now experiencing a new dawn after an end to the 30 years of political-violence. Included is the Titanic Experience Visitor Center. Be introduced you to local guides and the fun-loving characters and customs of both the Ulster-Irish and Ulster-British communities. The overnight stay will be some of the great memories of your travels. Downtown Belfast is amazing, and the glorious glens of Antrim are an absolute Irish paradise with Scotland in full view 12 miles away. Visit to the set of the hugely popular TV series Game of Thrones where you will see the Dark Hedges and Ballintoy harbor.

    An excelent way to visit Northern Ireland

    These 2 days trip allow you to have one day just for Belfast and so to have enough time to visit the city, without being a rush. In the second day you can see great spots of Northern Ireland. I definitely recommend it. All the guides were great!

    Fun but poorly organized trip

    Our tour guides and drivers were great. The Titanic Museum, Black Cab Tour, Dunluce Castle, and Giants Causeway were all quite engaging, sharing different parts of Northern Ireland's history and beautiful landscape. Spreading out the journey over two days gave us the opportunity to explore Belfast, which I thought was a lively city. Would recommend visiting Kelly's Cellars in Belfast! It was fun also to walk into Queen's University and walk around the downtown. Dunluce Castle was unexpectedly amazing and Giants Causeway was breathtaking. Overall, the experience was good, but we had some issues. The pickup location was confusing, and this was an issue affecting many Paddywagon customers on different trips. The pinned spot was by a train line and offset from the actual pickup location. We were also given the wrong pickup time - by an hour! This may have been an issue with booking through TripAdvisor, since there was a time zone change right after we booked our tickets. Fortunately the PaddyWagon office and our tour guide/bus driver worked with us to arrange a new, last minute pickup stop. Allowed us to make the trip, but was stressful. Feel bad for the other passengers who had to wait for us as we sorted the issue. The two day trip came with accommodation but we did not receive any advance information about the booking. Again, maybe an issue with booking through TripAdvisor. We were told our hostel spot midway through the trip. Sadly, we got lost in Belfast and with our phone dying and no service, we couldn't initially find the hostel. After charging our phones in a nearby bookstore, we found the hostel, which was tucked away. Without any booking information, we relied on the good faith of our hostel host to let us stay. Once all that was sorted, we had a lovely night in Belfast! The city itself was quite cheerful, which was a delightful juxtaposition to what we learned earlier regarding the Troubles. We called Paddywagon to confirm the pickup location and time for the second day. Unfortunately the bus was snarled in traffic, arrived late, and in a separate location. The bus driver had to find the entire group and guide us to the bus. Our bus driver was incredibly amiable though and provided us with great Irish humor and stories of history and folklore. The preplanned lunch spot felt a bit forced upon, but maybe there aren't good options on the limited time. I would have liked to spend more time in Giants Causeway. The Dark Hedges were neat, but not as spectacular as Giants Causeway and the adjacent cliff hiking. We paid one last stop in Belfast, which I enjoyed as a final goodbye before we made our way back to Dublin. Overall, the trip was enjoyable but would benefitted from more information or better organization from the tour company, some of which may be on the fault of TripAdvisor for relaying little to no information.

    2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dublin.

    How much does 2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway cost?

    +

    Prices start at $236 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dublin usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway take?

    +

    Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dublin is not rushed.

    Is 2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 88 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable nightlife in Dublin, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway?

    +

    Around 31 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dublin can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dublin and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 2-Day Northern Ireland Tour from Dublin Including Belfast and Giants Causeway start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dublin within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Dublin?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Dublin experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dublin to Cliffs of Moher, including Wild Atlantic Way and Galway, Dublin Highlights and Hidden Gems Guided Walking Tour, The Little Museum of Dublin Famous Guided Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Dublin?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Dublin?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
