    Knowledgable guide & impressive views

    We had an amazing day seeing the beautiful coast of Northern Ireland. Our guide, Francis, went above and beyond, sharing stories, history, and jokes throughout the day. Because he has lived in Norther Ireland his whole life, he was familiar with the entire area and had much knowledge to share. The countryside was beautiful. Our favorite was the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge. Even if you do not cross the bridge, the view of the cliffs is incredible (way more impressive than the Giants Causeway in our opinion). This was one of our favorite days of our trip!

    Response from the operator: Hi Catie Thank you so much for this lovely review. We are delighted that your day from the cruise terminal turned out to be one of the favourites of your trip. Francis will be very pleased to read this. Having lived in Northern Ireland his whole life, the coast is home ground to him, and that local knowledge, along with the stories and the jokes, is what turns a drive along the coast into a proper day out. We were glad to see Carrick-a-Rede singled out. The walk out to the bridge and the view across to Rathlin and the cliffs is spectacular in its own right, and plenty of our guests feel exactly as you do, that it stays with them even longer than the Causeway. Thank you again for travelling with us. It would be our pleasure to welcome you back to Northern Ireland whenever you return, and we would be happy to show you more of the country than a day ashore allows. With very best wishes, Murat Belfast Tours NI

    Murat Was Amazing

    Murat was amazing. Had a few difficulties on my part and Murat said “no problem.” Made what could have been a disastrous day into a great experience. Is knowledge and expertise are top notch, knows everyone and everyone knows him. We had a great time exploring the coast of Northern Ireland from Belfast to the Gaints Causeway. The only thing missing was the Irish brogue but he made up for that many times over. Thank you Murat for a wonderful day.

    Response from the operator: Hi Kelly, Thank you so much for this lovely review. These things happen, and I am always glad to take them in my stride, so I am delighted we turned the day around and that you came away with such a great experience. Sharing the coast from Belfast up to the Giant's Causeway is one of my favourite routes, and it sounds like we had a wonderful day of it. As for the brogue, I have had twenty-seven years to work on it, so I will keep trying. It was a real pleasure, and you would be most welcome back any time. Kind regards, Murat Yilmaz

    Highly recommend Murat @ Belfast Tours NI

    A group of 6 travellers from Australia travelling on the Princess Cruise ship. We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Belfast Tours NI. Murat truly went above and beyond to make our day special, taking us to hidden gems we never would have discovered on our own. Everything was perfectly organised—he was incredibly punctual, and the communication from start to finish was exceptional. A lovely touch was Murat reserving a table for us at a beautiful restaurant at the Causeway Hotel which made the day feel even more seamless and relaxed. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a memorable and well-curated tour with a very informative experience!

    Response from the operator: Hi Tess, Thank you for your lovely review. It was a real pleasure looking after you and your group during your visit from the Princess Cruise. I’m glad you enjoyed discovering some of the hidden gems along the route, and that everything felt smooth and well organised from start to finish. The lunch stop at the Causeway Hotel is always a special part of the day, so I’m really happy you had a relaxing experience there. Thank you again for your kind words and for choosing Belfast Tours NI. I hope to welcome you back to Ireland again in the future. Murat Belfast Tours NI

    A pleasant day trip

    We have a group of 16 people taking a cruise ship vacation. Belfast Tours NI arranged 2 eight-seater vans taking us to visit some of the famous locations in Northern Irland. We were very lucky to have a wonderful weather for the amazing scenery. Both drivers were very nice and knowledgeable, willing to accommodating our needs along the way. The service is wonderful but it would be better if we could have a bigger van to take us all together. Also, to have a microphone/speaker in the car so the people in the back can hear better.

    Response from the operator: Dear David, Thank you for taking the time to write a review and for your 4-star rating. It was our pleasure to show you the sights on the North Antrim Coast. Thank you for choosing Belfast Tours NI for your private shore excursion Kind Regards Nicole Yilmaz

    Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal cost?

    +

    Prices start at $953 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 Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 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 Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 29 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Belfast, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal?

    +

    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 Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal?

    +

    Around 10 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Giants Causeway Tour From Belfast Cruise Terminal 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.
