Excursión en tierra : Calzada de los Gigantes desde Belfast Extra Leg Room Bus
Descripción
Espacio adicional para las piernas en autobuses más pequeños hace que esta sea la manera ideal de viajar. Al darse cuenta de que el tiempo es limitado y la importancia de llegar de vuelta al puerto de Belfast a tiempo para la salida, se utilizan autobuses más pequeños (19,24 y un máximo de 27 pasajeros) lo que hace que el recorrido sea más personal y fácil de gestionar. Números más pequeños significa menos tiempo dedicado a esperar a las personas que regresan al autobús y más tiempo dedicado a los sitios.

La Calzada de los Gigantes es un sitio del Patrimonio Mundial y se dice que fue creada como resultado de una Erupción Volcánica hace más de 60 millones de años. La leyenda dice que la Calzada fue construida por Finn Mc Cool, un gigante local de más de 12 pies de altura. El acceso a la Calzada de los Gigantes es gratuito. Hay un cargo para cualquier persona que desee ingresar al centro de visitantes (Opcional)
Haremos una parada para que pueda ver el castillo de Dunluce. Esta icónica ruina es testigo de una larga y tumultuosa historia. Construido por primera vez en los dramáticos acantilados costeros del norte del condado de Antrim por la familia MacQuillan alrededor de 1500, el primer registro escrito del castillo fue en 1513.
Nos detendremos en esta pequeña y pintoresca ciudad costera durante aproximadamente 1 hora para el almuerzo. Donde hay muchas opciones para almorzar con pubs locales tradicionales que sirven comida tradicional irlandesa a precios razonables, o si prefiere un bocadillo y un paseo por la playa con su impresionante paisaje.
A nuestro regreso a Belfast, viajaremos a través de las nueve cañadas de Antrim y su guía le contará historias y folklore de estas cañadas increíbles y mágicas.
Nuestro viaje también nos llevará a lo largo de la carretera costera que se dice que es uno de los recorridos más pintorescos de Europa, un área de excepcional belleza natural con impresionantes vistas tanto de la tierra como del mar.
Al regresar a Belfast, lo llevaremos por Belfast y sus atracciones. Visitaremos tantos lugares como sea posible (si el tiempo lo permite) Cataratas, murales, muros de paz, camino de Shankil, etc.
Visitaremos el mirador de Portaneevy con sus espectaculares vistas del puente de cuerda Carrick-A-Rede y la isla Rathlin, que está a solo seis millas de la costa en Ballycastle.
Cushendall una pequeña ciudad costera pintoresca al pie de la "montaña de la mesa, con su histórica Torre del Toque de Queda construida en 1817. Paramos para un descanso de 15 minutos de confort.

Though it was a rainy and cloudy day, Steve made it very special. The causeway was still quite amazing. Steve was prompt and provided plenty of time to explore each stop. Very nice coach to ride in!
It was true to the description. It was in fact a small bus and our tour had 20 people, although it could have taken a few more. It was very comfortable on the bus. The tour guide was great, knowledgeable and had a good balance of info and relax time. Loved the 1.5 hrs at Giants Causeway. It allowed enough time to do either walk. The lunch was fantastic. I was thinking the food wouldn’t be great because the view was so nice, but it was. We skipped the Belfest drive around and honestly I preferred that after seeing so many things. All around great tour.
This was a disappointing day. To be fair, some of the problems were not the fault of the operator or driver but other things could have been handled better. To start with the pros: it was an extra legroom bus and we did get to see the Giants Causeway and we had about 1.5 hours there so plenty of time. It’s an amazing place and I truly recommend going there. Now for the cons: Communication from the tour operator could have been much better. I informed them of our ship arrival time as instructed and was told the tour would start shortly after arrival but when we got off the ship at 7 am we waited 45 minutes for our driver to show up. They said the ship was early but the arrival time per our ship information had not changed. Then the bus broke before we left the parking lot so waiting for the new bus put us another 35-40 minutes later. There was a festival in Belfast and we understood that it would affect our tour of the city. What we did not expect is that the driver would tell us that we had to skip the coastal drive along the Antrim coast road. Driver said it was because of the festival but with a little research I found no delays or backups on the coast road due to the festival. It is possible that our all aboard time may have made the timing too tight but why not just tell us that? Better yet, communicate in advance that we might not get to do the coast road. I felt like I was being lied to. Then there was lunch. The description clearly stated that we would be taken to Ballycastle where would would have about an hour on our own to walk the town, visit a pub, get lunch or whatever. Instead, we were driven through town, taken up on a hill to a remote hotel and spa and ushered inside for lunch at the restaurant at our own expense (not cheap). We did have two nice short stops for pictures along the coast near Giants Causeway (a castle ruins and a bridge). Upon return to Belfast (via the same inland freeway route we took out) the driver did his best to give us a city tour going to places that were not closed due to the festival and that was nice. We returned to the port earlier than expected but with plenty of time before all aboard. Overall the tour was not as expected.
Hello Teah Thank you for your feedback Your ship arrived at 7.00am one hour earlier than the advertised time of 8.00am on Belfast Harbours website. 08/08/2026 08:00-17:00 HAL ZUIDERDAM 285 Belfast Cruise Terminal 2,781 Our first bus was at the port at 7.15am and the second at 7.45am both buses arrived early for a 8.00am docking time. We had an issue with one of the buses, when the driver opened the side locker to put in a passengers walking aid the hinge came loose and he could not get it back in place. We decided to use a replacement bus, which we always keep free when providing Shore Excursions for such unforeseen issues (anyone with a vehicle will inderstand they can be unpredictable). Our replacement bus arrived in approx 30 mins. Your tour departed shortly before 8.30am the advertised time for the tour departure. Some people would say this was a fantastic acheivement from our staff on the day. You were not lied to at any point during the day, all passenger were updated during the day with the facts as they were happening. As August is peak tourism season we have to book venues that can handle groups and guarantee good food at reasonable prices within our time constraints. The road closure was due to a festival taking place in the glens of Antrim. Serious Traffic Delays on Saturday 8th August 2026. (Ballyeamon Road Closed 12.30pm-3.30pm Unfortunately your little research missed the fact there were road closures. Our main priority is getting all passengers back to the port safely and on time for the ships departure. returning via the coastal route would have been to much of a risk and we could have missed the ship sailing. That is a decision our staff have to make, we cannot permit an individual passenger or Google to make those decisions. The problems you highlighted were out of our control and we believe our staff dealt with the situation very professionally. Sorry you felt it was not good enough. Regards
Our driver/tour guide was excellent. He kept us ahead if the crowds, was very informative and made the best of a rainy day. The lunch stop was excellent.
Giants Causeway is fascinating! We had fog and a little drizzle, diminishing visibility but the tour was great. Opted for the shuttle bus due to the weather.
Paddy our driver was great! We had an amazing day with plenty of time to see all of what the tour promised. It was an easy tour to do as a cruise passenger. Can't recommend enough! Highly recommend
Trip was carried out as described. It was a very nice minibus and our driver, Steve, is unbeatable. He only spread good vibes.
Phenomenal tour! Great bus with great leg room as described! Driver was very enjoyable and informative. They were right outside our cruise boat for easy pickup and dropoff. Beautiful day and even place to eat was delicious! Giants causeway was stunning! Definitely recommend this tour.
We chose this excursion because we’ve previously been to Belfast. The guide/driver, Stephen, was very informative and skilled. The Giants Causeway was amazing but be prepared for huge numbers of ill-mannered tourists who don’t understand a queue and instead push and shove to get on the return shuttle from the pickup point and the end of the tour. Our tour did not include Cushendall or the Glens of Antrim. I believe this was due to the ship docking late but this wasn’t explained on the tour. We appreciated the guide’s Game of Thrones knowledge as we are big fans and his personal perspective living in the area was insightful. The brief swing through Belfast was a great way to end the tour but seeing Dunluce Castle was my favorite part of tour.
Hello Donna Thank you for your review Sorry to hear you had a bad experience with other tourists. Your ship docked late and we had to make adjustments to the itinerary to ensure we got back to the ship on time. If we had completed the full itinerary it would not have been possible to return to the ship on time. Sorry you were disappointed, we did our very best within the time available to us. Regards
We went on a small bus tour with Patrick in May. He was amazing and very informative! He says he does it because he loves it and it shows. Glad we did the smaller bus since we didn’t have to wait for other people. It was our favourite shore excursion. Everything was interesting and the lunch stop was great. Really liked the Giant Causeway, that would worth it on its own.
