This unique tour provides an incredible first hand insight in to the filming of Game of Thrones® and gets you out to see the numerous amazing filming locations. Flip, your guide and driver, was a stand in actor for both The Mountain and Hodor. He also is a local from the north coast and will take you to many under-the-radar and off the beaten-track filming locations–the places most fans of the show do not get to see. Flip also studied the Environmental Sciences due to his love of the area. He can explain the dramatic landscape formations and scenery that are home to the filming locations - the real-world Westeros!

Well all I can say is wow, my wife and I had organised a trip to Antrim with the kid's and decided to bring my parents, my mother is a massive game of thrones fan so after a bit of research we found that giant tours with its excellent reviews was the right choice, and its times like this you need to thank trip advisor for its wealth of information because we had one of the best times ever on a trip in Ireland and we are from Ireland. Flip is the most genuine and good natured tour guide we have ever come across his actual love for Ballycastle and all the surrounding natural beauty spots really show through which makes it so enjoyable. He really gave us a great experience and a day of memories and made our little trip to Antrim one that will be hard to beat. I'm from Dublin and honestly didn't really know how beautiful Antrim is, Flip showed us some amazing sites and had great knowledge of the whole area so I would truly recommend a visit. 100%

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.

After booking on 22nd July through trip advisor, and the payment for the tour immediately taken from my bank account, I received confirmation that all was good. On arriving in Belfast for one day to do the tour no operator turned up at the confirmed pick up location. On investigation said company (paddy wagon tours) had not yet re-opened since covid 19 lockdown restrictions. Therefore the tour was never going ahead but trip advisor advertised and confirmed my booking. Unsure who’s at fault? Trip advisor or the company, either way, standing in Belfast with two children in tow awaiting a tour of the Giants Causeway that was never going to happen was not a pleasant experience. Now the battle to get reimbursed!
