Essential Causeway Coast Private Tour - From Belfast Up to 4 Pax
Description
Travel with Clover - a Golden Retriever dog! If you want he can join you on your journey (if you're not a dog lover it's not a problem, it's optional). Clover Cabs was created to offer something different from the typical tour company. Instead of a standard ride with a group of strangers, with an random driver, Clover Cabs will just have Colum at helm & just your party. The goal is to provide a friendly, personal travel experience where every journey feels relaxed and enjoyable. With a background in tourism and a passion for sharing the beauty of Northern Ireland, I wanted to provide more intimate tours of Northern Ireland. Not just driving by taking a photo out of the window, not just dropping you off & telling you to be back in an hour. I wanted to personally guide you properly - the Irish way. Passengers can enjoy local insights, the in depth history of Ireland, fun facts and recommendations along the way. P.s I'll be your personal photographer on the day!

Itinerary
The iconic ruin of Dunluce Castle bears witness to a long and tumultuous history. The earliest written record of the castle was in 1513. We'll explore all the hidden wonders inside.
Bushmills is home to the world’s oldest licensed whiskey distillery. Official records stretch back to 1608. You'll join an official tour from the Distillery lasting an hour which offers a free drink at the end. Note: This will be a public Distillery tour with other tourists, not private
Created by volcanic activity more than 60 million years ago, the Giant’s Causeway is made up of around 40,000 perfectly formed basalt columns. The Causeway is approx 1 mile (1.6km) from the car park & there is a bus available (for £1) if you don't wish to walk. We'll leave the causeway via a different route which will offer more stunning views from the top of a cliff that involves climbing 160 steps (it'll be worth every step). You're welcome to return via the bus (for £1) & meet us in the car park if you prefer.
Connected to the cliffs is a rope bridge across the Atlantic Ocean. Suspended almost 100ft (30m) above sea level, the rope bridge was first erected by salmon fishermen 250 years ago. It is one of the most popular tourist spots so there may be lines. The rope bridge is approx 0.8 miles (1km) from the car park. The bridge is 20 metres long & stopping is frowned upon due to the lines of people waiting to cross on both sides. But your guide may be able to snap a few.

Colum and Clover made our trip to Ireland so special! We opted to have Clover sit up in the car with us and it was so fun to take long walks and explore with such a fun-loving sweetheart. Colum picked us up at our hotel and drove us to Dunluce Castle. On our way, he gave us a great history of Ireland. We drove past rolling hills and lots of sheep and cows with Clover positioned comfortable next to us. Colum provided us cold water throughout the day and kept our schedule very flexible. We could spend as much time as we wanted at each site (the distillery tour was the only timed venue). He was so kind, so informative, and made us feel very comfortable. We had an incredible experience at the Castle, distillery, Giant’s Causeway, and Carrick-a-Rede. We will never forget how absolutely stunning the scenery was at these amazing locales. A great side trip from Belfast. Highly recommended!
Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful review Maria! It means a lot to both myself and Clover. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure around Northern Ireland someday!
Loved our day with Colum and Clover exploring the North Coast! We learned so much having such a great tour guide to explain what we were seeing. Highly recommend! Don’t forget Clover!
Hi Joy, many thanks for your lovely review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed exploring the north coast. Safe travels and hopefully we'll see you again in Northern Ireland soon ☘️
