Originally built to celebrate Belfast’s new status as a city, the City Hall is one of the most beloved Belfast tourist attractions. We’ll show you around this grand monument to history, or you can relax on the grassy grounds, with the Belfast Wheel in the background.
Walk on the Derry City Walls
We’ll take you on a journey through history to the Derry City Walls, one of the most historically important places to visit in Northern Ireland. Surrounding the old city center of Derry, the city walls are a 17th-century fortification with panoramic views of the region. Incredibly, most of the original structure is still standing.
Feel the Irish Spirit at St George's Market
Completed in 1896, St George’s Market is the last surviving Victorian market in Belfast and one of the oldest Belfast attractions. There are markets every Friday and Sunday and you can explore local produce, secondhand treasures, traditional arts and crafts, Irish homewares, and live music in this beautiful building.
Explore the town of Donegal
With its wild mountains, sandy beaches and glittering lakes, Donegal is one of the most remarkable places in Europe.

It’s one of the most iconic things to do in Northern Ireland, and your trip will also ‘Make a Difference' by helping to preserve this natural wonder.
Our top 5 things to do in Northern Ireland
We show you the best things to do in Belfast and beyond, from the ancient Derry City Walls to the spectacular natural columns of the Giant’s Causeway.
Ulster Museum

The Titanic Belfast is an incredible museum, dedicated to telling the story of the Titanic, from her design and construction in Belfast in the early 1900s to her disastrous voyage. Located in the Belfast docklands, where the original Titanic was launched, you can explore over nine interactive galleries.
Downpatrick
Down County Museum
We’ll take you back through 9,000 years of history at the Down County Museum, a former prison now dedicated to documenting the history of Downpatrick.

Best museums in Northern Ireland

Ardglass potted herring
This classic Northern Irish dish consists of Ardglass herrings rolled in a dish with vinegar, spice berries, raw onions, salt and pepper. It’s baked until the top of the fish becomes crispy, then served with crusty bread and butter to mop up the tasty juices.
One of the most well-loved dishes in Northern Ireland, Ulster fry is a traditional cooked breakfast with griddle breads (potato bread and soda bread fried until golden), small pancakes, bacon, eggs, sausages, tomatoes and mushrooms, served with tea and toast.
Traditionally found in the north midlands such as Fermanagh and Donegal, Boxty is a Northern Irish potato pancake made with a blend of grated raw potatoes and cooked mashed potatoes with flour and buttermilk. Served with a smear of butter, this is a delicious favorite.
Best food in Northern Ireland
Our trips will let you in on the best places to try Northern Irish cuisine, filled with grilled bread, potato pancakes, bacon and sausages, and generous dollops of creamy butter.
What to pack for Northern Ireland
Water and windproof jacket
Northern Ireland is one of the wettest and windiest regions in Europe, with temperatures averaging just 15°C (59°F) in summer. Stay cosy with a sturdy jacket and warm layers.
A big appetite
With a hearty cuisine filled with delicious breads, meats, pancakes and potatoes in every form, you’ll need to bring your appetite for a tour of Northern Ireland.
Although the Republic of Ireland (the southern partition of Ireland) uses the Euro, Northern Ireland uses the Pound sterling, so you’ll need to change currencies at the border.
An adaptor plug
Voltage in Northern Ireland is 230V, and the sockets are of Type G, with standard British 3-pin plugs.
Northern Ireland is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in the world, and you’ll want to bring a camera to capture all of this wild beauty.
Pack for sustainable travel
Consider your environmental impact when you next take a trip and go single-use-plastic-free by packing a reusable water bottle, a steel straw, your own shopping bags and reusable toiletry bottles.

After some much-needed sleep and a hearty full Irish breakfast, we will depart for Northern Ireland. The province of Northern Ireland was created with the partition of the island of Ireland in 1921.
Your destination today will be Belfast City , the only city in Ireland to fully experience the Industrial Revolution. Linen, rope making, tobacco and most famously shipbuilding including the building of the Titanic Belfast on the Harland & Wolff shipyard, were the main industries. The Troubles took their toll on the economic life of Belfast, but the past fifteen years of peace have returned much prosperity, while the genuine friendliness of the city never left.
Travelling north, your route today will take you through County Meath & County Louth. On arrival in Belfast, visit the Titanic Belfast . The worldâs largest Titanic-themed visitor attraction, located on the very slipways where she was built in the heart of Belfast. In the afternoon, enjoy a tour of Belfast City with a specialised step on local Belfast City Guide to see and hear all about the history of this once troubled city — including the Belfast Murals of the Loyalist Shankill Road and Nationalist Falls Road.

The tour of Northern Ireland in May was our second experience with My Ireland Tour. We enjoyed our first tour with the company and didn't think twice about using them again. Their tours are simply the best: knowledgable drivers with entertaining personalities, top notch accommodations (lodging and meals), and knowledge of cultural and historical spots not to be missed. Being part of a small group of tourists is very pleasant and gave us the opportunity to enjoy new friends. If we want to plan another tour of Ireland, England or Scotland, it will be with My Ireland Tour. Judy and Fred Reuter
Sara Palmer
My friend and I had a fantastic experience with My Ireland Tour! We did the Discover Northern Ireland Tour with Cathal as our driver. He was fantastic and shared so much history about Northern Ireland, as well as information about everywhere we drove through. The pace of the tour was perfect with a balance of planned activities and free time on our own, particularly in the evenings. Because we had a small group, we all had the chance to get to know each other, particularly during the included three course dinners, which was an added bonus. I've already told friends thinking about visiting Ireland about how wonderful our tour was and will continue to recommend My Ireland Tour.

I did the Northern Ireland tour. Tour went very smoothly; lovely accommodations, good food, very comfortable bus, and our guide, Colm Clarke, had an encyclopedic knowledge of Irish history. The step on guides in Belfast and Derry explained âthe troublesâ clearly and with no bias. This is a great tour at a very reasonable price. Good value. I would travel with this company again. No complaints.

Robin Henry
We took the Northern Ireland tour this time and to our amazement, Colm Clarke was again our driver and guide. It truly felt like returning to see old friends. The tour was great, again Colm was so and made things so fun. Our guide in Belfast, Nollaig, was full of information and kept things lively even while talking about things like The Troubles. In Derry, our guide was Theresa, again a knowledgeable and passionate guide. We loved Bushmill's and Giant's Causeway. The Lough Erne Cruise and the trip to Devinish Island was almost magical with the mist rising up off the river as the sun got higher. Shannon set us up with a private tour from our wish list after Northern Ireland and it was everything we could have hoped for. We got to stay in the places we wanted to explore, stayed at great placed and the food was unbelievable good. We saw a lot in 6 days - Kilkenny Castle, Cobh and the Titanic Museum and the statue of Annie Moore, then on to Kinsale and the Lusitania Museum and Old Head, all the shops (such wonderful little hidden gems. Then we went to Dingle Peninsula and spent 2 days in a delightful BNB and explored. Our last days, we revisited the Cliffs of Moher and then to Galway and a day on the largest Aran Island. We couldn't have asked for a better day - water calm, no wind, and sunny. Our driver and Guide, Pat C. was great. He stopped for photos and had suggestions for others, always made sure we were well settled in our hotels and knew his stuff. Thanks for making our trip to Ireland, once again, a delightful and experience packed trip. We'll be back!

This is my second tour with this company. I did the Northern Ireland tour in September and Colm was the guide driver of the bus. He brought Irish history alive. The additional guides we had in Belfast and Derry were fabulous sharing their knowledge of these two cities and 'The Troubles'. Great hotels and meals also included in the tour. I would recommend this company and this tour.

Northern Ireland tour was great!
Steve Warfield
We took the Northern Ireland tour in early July 2023, and it was a fantastic experience. Setting aside the fantastic price, our tour bus was spacious, clean, and, comfortable, as were all our hotel accomodations. The breakfasts and dinners were consistently excellently tasting, and there were numerous choices for both. Our driver/tour guide, George, was definitely one of the best we have experienced in our travels, as he was personable, highly knowledgeable, and a very skilled driver. The excursions were included in the tour price (as was the lodging and morning/evening meal) and there was more than enough time at each location to do some exploring after the day had come to an end.

My husband and I travelled to Northern Ireland with My Ireland Tours in September 2022. Our driver/tour guide, Garey, provided very concise instructions as well as informative commentary every step of the way. We had two interesting activities every day. While I booked the tour primarily for the Giants Causeway, every part of the trip provided us with fabulous scenery. The drive along the Antrim coast was spectacular. The Step-on Guides in Belfast and Derry were very informative, as they helped us to understand the turmoil in their cities. The travel between each stop was reasonable and we always arrived at our final destination in good time. Having our breakfast and evening meal included in our tour simplified everything. Lunch stops included the Titanic Experience, the Giants Causeway and the Ulster American Folk Park. We cannot praise Garey enough for the way he took charge of our group and his amazing talent for maneuvering the full-size coach. It would have been a far more stressful journey if we had attempted to do it on our own. The ease with which our booking was managed was also great. Kevin kept us posted on the payment deadline and ensured that our arrival and departure information was complete. Although we arrived two days early, he arranged for us to remain in the same room when we joined the tour group. If you haven't been to Ireland before I would highly recommend using My Ireland Tours. Your vacation will be trouble free.
July 2022 • Discover Northern Ireland
In the past five years I have used My Ireland Tour twice, and they do not disappoint. First you can design your own itinerary, if you desire, if you do they will help you with suggestions, that will enhance your trip. They will book you into hotels that have great reputations, sometimes even 5 star at a reasonable trip cost. Last, they provide well respected tour guide drivers in great coaches. A great tour guide/driver makes all the difference in a tour. The most recent tour of Northern Ireland with driver guide Raymond Wilson was truly a great experience. The support and communication with the office staff was always helpful and professional. I would never consider a trip to Ireland without using My Ireland Tours.

Delayed by the pandemic, we've finally been able to take our THIRD tour with My Ireland Tour. This time we went to Northern Ireland and the experience was as wonderful, if not more so, than our previous two tours. As has been the case in all of our previous tours with My Ireland Tours, the superb service came into play even before our trip began. The staff provided all of the assistance we needed to arrange our journey and guided us skillfully through all of the new processes and procedures for travel. The tour itself was absolutely delightful! Our driver / guide, Garey, was knowledgeable and entertaining. He demonstrated great skill driving the coach on the sometimes narrow roads of the countryside and through the congestion and tight quarters on the cities. The schedule provided ample time to enjoy each of the sites that we visited and the walking tour of Derry was a highlight of the tour. We continue to prefer My Ireland Tour because of the value for money, excellent customer service, well crafted tours, smaller group sizes and superb driver / guides. When it comes time for our fourth visit, we won't look to any other tour company for our travel needs!
My very first trip with my ireland tours..booked a northern Ireland tour with them..was a little apprehensive as being a single elderly lady traveling on my own was not sure how it would be..I can't tell you it was one of the best tours I have taken..from the very start..the prompt interaction with eric via email was very reasureing as all my questions were answered promptly..it was good to be met by our guide/driver Garry at dublin airport..after that it was smooth sailing all the way to Northern Ireland! He took good care of us and gave us a full insight into the Irish way of life with stories and historical details of the places we visited..we were kept at very good comfortable hotels each night..all in all..a great memorable trip..will definitely book with them again..many thanks

Our experience with our My Ireland tour of Northern Ireland was very good. We appreciated the well planned itinerary, which included interesting stops as well as some down time each day. The accommodations and food exceeded expectations. Our specialty guides were very informative and personable. Our bus driver/guide was outstanding, one of a kind â do you get me? We will take a piece of Northern Ireland home with us in our hearts.

What a marvelous experience! My husband and I were on the 5 day Northern Ireland tour from March 20-25, 2019 and enjoyed every minute of it! Our tour guide, Nigel O'Connor, was so professional and attentive to the group, always conscious of our schedule for the day but also allowing for slight changes as necessary. For example, two guests wanted to attend St. Michael's early mass one morning and that request was accommodated with an alternate pick up location for them. Thanks so much for a terrific, memorable vacation!

On our 24 day trek through the UK, Chuck and I picked up the Northern Ireland Tour through My Ireland Tours at the Belfast Titanic and continued on with the group of 26. Our driver /guide Nigel was entertaining and knowledgable about the history of the area we travelled through and answered questions for us. The countryside was spectacular, the people of Ireland warm and welcoming and the bus family entertaining. This was our first group trip in our 64 years and we both enjoyed leaving the thinking to a well organized company to do that for us for part of our trip. Cead Mile Failte is just one Gaelic saying we learned, but to all of you Go Raibh Maith Agat.

What a great tour. We were fortunate enough to meet our daughter and son-in-law for the Northern Ireland tour. The weather was great, the food was good, and the scenery was fantastic. Our driver guide was David Breen. His knowledge and driving skills were brilliant. He was patient, informative, and funny. Not mentioned on the website is an included train ride along the coast from Coleraine to Derry-beautiful. We met some very nice people on our tour, as well as in the places we visited.

We took a tour of Northern Ireland, and it was wonderful! Harry (the hat) our tour guide and bus driver was very good. He was knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor, and was totally unflappable. The tour guide we had in Derry (Ronan) was also very good during our walking tour. The hotels were great - very nice rooms and meals. Although, the menu offerings at each hotel were either the same or very similar so we were definitely ready for something else by the end of the tour. We will definitely utilize this tour company again!

What a marvelous experience! My husband and I were on the 5 day Northern Ireland tour from March 20-25, 2019 and enjoyed every minute of it! Our tour guide, Nigel O'Connor, was so professional and attentive to the group, always conscious of our schedule for the day but also allowing for slight changes as necessary. For example, two guests wanted to attend St. Michael's early mass one morning and that request was accommodated with an alternate pick up location for them. The tour was just the right pace with drives no more than 2 hours at a time with an opportunity to stop and stretch once during the drive. The sites we visited were beyond our expectations... Titanic museum in Belfast, Giants Causeway, Derry/Londonderry wall tour, boat tour on Loche Erne, and Trim Castle were all highlights. Our accommodations and the meals were exceptional every night. Thanks so much for a terrific, memorable vacation!

I usually travel on my own with friends, but this Northern Ireland tour was way beyond my expectations. Nigel was an excellent tour guide and Peter, our guide in Derry, explained everything for me about The Troubles and how the area has moved forward. All the hotels were top notch, and plenty of choices for breakfast and dinner. I especially liked the train ride from Coleraine to Derry. I chatted with a Irish woman on her way home from work. The people on this tour were so friendly and fun to be with on each of the outings and we had wonderful conversations at meal times. I highly recommend this tour and My Ireland Tour.

We were thrilled with our Northern Ireland Tour thanks to our fantastic guide and driver, Barry Loe. He took excellent care of us and provided great information. We highly recommend both the tour and Barry to anyone considering touring Northern Ireland. Also,there were only 12 of us on the tour, making it a great experience.

After a lot of research with different tour companies, we decided to book the 6 day Discover Northern Ireland tour with .My Ireland Tour.. It was well worth it. Very well organised from the moment we were picked up from the airport. All local guides that the company used were amazing, as we were also pleased with our driver/guide Roy. The sights were well chosen, and the country is absolutely fascinating. It was a wonderful trip, also because we got to meet other group members from all over the world.

"This tour was grand! Our guide, Marcus, was thoughtful, engaging, and knowledgeable of Irish language, culture and history. A great source for local sightseeing and spot on with recommendations for food and entertainment. Margaret, the host of my bed&breakfast could not have been more accomodating and my room was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was nice and the dining room was very pleasant. As for the tour of the Irish coast and countryside it could not have been more beautiful, made even more spectacular with the very fine weather. Especially on our visit to the cliffs at Slieve League. I hope to join you for a future tour to see more of the enchanting emerald isle.

IRELAND WIDE TOURS FROM BELFAST OR DUBLIN
Welcome to our home!
Northern Ireland, a land of fantastical landscapes, warm welcomes, dramatic history and enduring legend. It is a land steeped in natural beauty. Its rolling green hills are whitened by snow in winter and shimmer in sunlight in the warmer months. It is surrounded by restless oceans, sometimes calm but often rough breaking wildly on its shore and cliffs. Visitors find it awash with history, energy and unforgettable experiences: from the origins of the Titanic story in Belfast, the pilgrimage of St Patrick including his burial place in Downpatrick to the swinging planks of the Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge on the Causeway Coast. A short trip from there takes you to the famed Giant’s Causeway - a world heritage site. Then you might find yourself standing at stunning Dunluce, a ruined yet still majestic castle at what feels like the edge of the world.
Enjoy one of the finest coastal drives in the world and explore the home of the world famous Game of Thrones TV series. Visitors to Northern Ireland will also see reminders of its troubled history, the sectarian troubles and culture that has scarred and shaped this amazing place and its people.
All our tours are private and you will be well looked after, reaching locations inaccessible by coach. We cater exclusively for smaller groups from the individual client up to groups of seven people. We can also customise your tour to suit whatever requirements you may have on the day or any other specific places that you wish to prioritise. Should it be an excursion with family or a tour in the company of friends; a visit to County Antrim along the magical Causeway Coastal Route is an experience and memory that will last a lifetime. We deeply love this place and we're passionately devoted to sharing that with our guests and visitors. Please enjoy our new website, our photos and reviews then we can start planning your own trip of a lifetime! We do Ireland wide excusions from Dublin or Belfast so if you want a holiday with a difference, book your chauffeur driven vacation or day trip with City and Causeway Tours.
Best wishes and we'll see you soon!
OUR PROMISE
We know your time here is precious. We promise that you will leave our shores with nothing but amazing memories of stunning scenery, fantastic food, and above all the experience of a lifetime.

Ireland is an enchanting place often called the Emerald Isle.
The heritage of Ireland is simply mesmerising. From ancient castles built by the Scottish, British and Irish in different eras, to the beautiful buildings that showcase excellent Irish architecture, there is so much to appreciate. Ireland is packed with museums and historical monuments. Many visitors have Irish ancestors who come to research their family tree or to feel a connection to their roots. The Irish people are amongst the friendliest people on earth. In cities like Dublin, there are modern buildings and lifestyles you might see in many capital cities, while in the countryside you may still be able to find people living in cottages with thatched roofs, maybe even using peat as heating fuel. Young people learn Irish songs and dances. Age-old traditions are treated with the greatest of respect.
If you don't visit an Irish pub then you will miss out. It's not just the famous Guinness and the spontaneous folk music you will find. Irish chefs are on the rise and gaining a well-deserved international reputation. Some of the ingredients on offer include lamb, beef and fresh seafood on the coasts. Galway oysters are especially famous. You must try soda bread and drink Irish coffee. Browse our tours of Ireland below and begin your journey of discovery around the Emerald Isle, steeped in myth and legend. Famous for the friendliest and most hospitable of people, this is a place that will inspire and enthral you. Whether you choose to kiss the Blarney stone to gain the gift of the gab or walk in the footsteps of giants on the Giant's Causeway, you will be sure to find tradition and surprises around every corner.
Winter is Coming
Perhaps you would like to visit some of the filming locations for "Game of Thrones". Most tours start from Dublin, city of poets and the famous Guinness brewery. Enjoy a tour around Dublin’s famous Trinity College. Take a walking tour of Kinsale, Galway, Derry and Drogheda with local guides. And no visit to Killarney would be complete without a horse-drawn jaunting car ride. Watch sheepdogs at work on a farm, listen to authentic Irish folk music played by locals in pubs around the country. They get together and play just for the 'craic'.
Crystal Gazing
Visit Waterford and be dazzled by the art of crystal manufacture. Take a ferry across the river Shannon. Drink in the stunning scenery of Connemara. Irish step dancing made famous by 'Riverdance' is featured in some of the evening entertainment you may choose to enjoy. If your tour includes Belfast why not spend some time at the Titanic museum on the site of the former shipyard where RMS Titanic was built. We have dozens of regular departures of group escorted vacation packages, but if you want your own private tour, Global Coach Tours will be pleased to prepare a chauffeur drive tour of Ireland quotation for you. We have tours that combine Ireland with Scotland, Wales and the rest of the United Kingdom.

Northern Ireland Tours : Discover NI
8 great ways to discover northern ireland.
The murals of Belfast are world famous; there are over 300 across the city and there are many great ways to see them all. The murals are stunning and many tell the history of the city. There are plenty of walking tours that will take you through the cultural and political history of Belfast and Northern Ireland. If you are feeling a bit lazy, however, you can opt for a Black Cab tour.
Giant’s Causeway and Antrim Coast Tour
The Causeway Coastal Route is said to be one of the five most breathtaking driving routes. A great way to experience its charms is by booking a coach tour and travelling in comfort. The tour stops at each attraction to allow a closer look at the amazing sights, and the full day trip is an experience not to be missed.
Slieve Donard Walk, Newcastle
The Slieve Donard Walk is a three mile trek that will take you up to the highest geographical peak of the Northern Ireland region. If it happens to be sunny, you may be lucky enough to see Newcastle Beach and the Isle of Man.
Belfast Bar Crawl
You can’t visit Northern Ireland without stopping at a few bars, and some of the best options are located in Belfast. Start your tour by heading into the Crown Liquor Saloon, followed by a stop at the Robinson & Cleaver for a great view of City Hall – and steak and chips to die for. Quickly pop into Café Vaudeville for a cocktail afterwards and then head towards the Cathedral Quarter for the true pub experience.
Belfast City Sightseeing
If you are more interested in seeing the city than the pubs, take this wonderful hop-on/hop-off bus tour to see most of historic Belfast. It leaves every thirty minutes from Belfast City centre at Castle Place.
Tour Fermanagh; Lough Erne & Lusty Beg
The Lusty Beg is an island in the Lakeland of northern Fermanagh. Many people choose to camp out on the island over the weekend, but if you just want to explore it you can also travel over to the island and take the Loughshore Trail. This path gives you a great workout, and some stunning views of the lakes.
Belfast City Bike Tour
The Belfast City Bike Tour is an excellent way to stay in shape and see all of the great sites of the city, without worrying about parking. There are several different bike tours available including the Hilden Bike n’ Brew, Titanic Bike n’ Boat , and the City Tour.
Dundrum Murlough National Reserve Trail
Finally, if you want to make sure that you see all of Northern Ireland’s unique geography, take the Dundrum Murlough National Reserve Trail. In just one trail you get to enjoy mountains, a beach, and can even stop in at a café at the end as a reward.
