90 minutes here · Admission included
The Dark Hedges
Drive past Dark Hedges on the way back to Belfast. This ancient tree lined road is probably the most famous haunted avenue in Europe! The road has been closed to public traffic recently so we won't be able to stop - however you'll enjoy some cool views as we drive by on an adjacent road!
Pass by without stopping
Carrick A Rede Rope Bridge
Enjoy views over Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, Rathlin Island, Sheep Island and the Scottish coast from the viewing point at Portaneevy. We won't be crossing the bridge as it is now a conservation site and closed to groups - but you'll experience the best views and get the opportunity to take awesome photos!

A great way to see the Giants Causeway when available time is limited
Excellent value tour on a modern, comfortable coach with a cheerful, friendly and knowledgeable guide. Plenty of time to see the Giants Causeway and still be back in time for lunch in Belfast. Recommended.

Excellent and Informative Tour
We took the morning tour (Fri 16th Oct) the driver was excellent, he was very informative on the various locations on the way to the Causeway. Heed his excellent advice on walking down to the stones and getting the bus back up. We had a coffee/snack and used the facilities in the Hotel, which was superb. He pointed out various locations on the way back into Belfast mentioning restaurants and bars. In a snapshot - Very information, excellent craic and would do it again!

There’s a long walk to...
There’s a long walk to the causeway, also the stones are steep and would be tricky to climb if you are not that mobile.

Cannot recommend enough!
A lovely, super worth it way to spend a morning! We got very lucky as we had a sunny day. Rory, our guide, was super funny and lovely, and rounded off the whole experience

Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belfast.
How much does Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast cost?
+
Prices start at $34 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Belfast usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast take?
+
Plan for about 5 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 Belfast is not rushed.
Is Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 328 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Belfast, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast?
+
Around 115 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 Belfast 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 Belfast and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Morning Giant's Causeway Half Day Tour from Belfast 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 Belfast 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 Belfast?
+
On Outty we rank every Belfast experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include A History of Terror - Belfast City Centre Walking Tour, Belfast Black Taxi Tour: Private Journey Through History, Belfast's Political Mural Taxi 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 Belfast?
+
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 Belfast?
+
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.

+
