Mr Murat is a professional tour guide, he will demonstrate the history and the knowledge about the scenes in a humorous way. You may not feel tired anymore. Besides, if you are a lucky guy meeting a beautiful day, then you experience would be perfect. This tour is completely different from other bus and group tour (which I had took before), the surprising point is not Giants Causeway, but the scene on the way. If you choose it, you will get what I mean.

Ricky took my mother and me on a wonderful day touring the Giant’s Causeway, pre-booked us tickets for the rope bridge, and then took us for some riding at Shean’s Horse Farm in the afternoon. He was a wonderful driver and gave us a lot of history on the area. His passion for Northern Ireland shows through and was the utmost gentleman holding an umbrella for my mother in the pouring rain as she watched me riding in the muddy field. He didn’t even cringe as I loaded up our muddy boots and helmets into his pristine car for the drive home.

What a fabulous day with Fergal. My husband and I were in Northern Ireland for 4 nights and wanted to do some exploring without the confines and strict agenda of a large tour company and we found the perfect tour guide for the country with InSite Tours and Fergal. He took us all around, to off the beaten path gorgeous locations that only a local would know and even fit in a quick tasting at Bushmills, finishing the day with dinner at a delicious place. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique adventure, incredible scenery and fabulous guide.

Last year was better as we went upto Stormont, but couldn't this time due to it now being in session. Much prefer the live commentary. Didnt really feel value for money.
Are you brave enough to face the might of the Irish Sea? On the Causeway coastal route, the Gobbins cliff path tour lasts 2.5 hours and takes in some truly unforgettable sights. In this spectacular location, you will feel the might of the wind and sea first hand, and maybe even spot some native sea birds and dolphins close by.
