Tollymore forest appeared in season 1 of Game of Thrones® as both the Haunted forest north of the Wall and the Wolfswood outside Winterfell. This tour is a 90 minute walking tour of three iconic locations. You will be joining our morning (10am) Winterfell coach tour customers on their locations trek. The total walking distance is 2 miles (3.2km). The terrain is sometimes uneven, with a steep descent into, and final ascent out of the forest from the car park. Accordingly, this tour is not recommended for anyone with limited mobility. You can identify the coach by the name EAMONN ROONEY in huge letters on the side. Our guide will give you a Stark wool cloak as part of the tour, at no extra cost. Please feel free to ask the guide before the tour begins. Please wear outdoor footwear and dress appropriately for the Northern Irish weather.

An excellent tour and out guide Andrew was incredibly knowledgeable and entertaining. As an extra for 4 seasons he had great stories to tell about filming and being part of Game of Thrones. You get great information about the sites you're visiting before you get there. The rope bridge wasn't accessible but we didn't just skip that, we went to Dunluce castle as an alternative and that was well worth visiting. Can't recommend this highly enough, it is a long day but it's entertainment all the way.

Being a fan of GOT it was always a dream for me to visit any of the location and its finally completed last year when i visited Game of Thrones Tours. Its a must visit place. The props looks very much really. Adrian was our tour guide & he looks exactly like Davos Seaworth a he was his body double.
