I've been to the Giant's Causeway before this particular trip; however we were fortunate to have fantastic weather this time around. Although quieter than before (we went on a Monday) it was still incredibly busy. There is however some merit in wandering past the main point of the site and continuing up to the ridge above where it gets a... More

Fantastic what nature can do! We spent at least 3 hours there altogether, mostly sitting about on tuffs of grass watching the waves crash into the rocks just like the sea did thousands of years ago. Spectacular! More

Upon arrival at the Gaints Causeway parking was quite a nightmare..some guy was directing us into a field by mistake, he then told us to park in a gravel carpark. We visited whilst they working on the new Building. Once parked we began the walk to the causeway, its quite a long tiring walk so if you elderly I would... More

We went early morning on a glorious sunshine day. Gentleman at the information was so friendly and helpful. Magnificent scenery - the stones are quite extraordinary. We were able to take great photos as there were no crowds. Enjoyed the walk to organ pipes but could go no further as there had been landslides. There is construction work on the... More

We took more photos here than anywhere else on our tour of the UK. It's a most amazing geological formation. We came here on McCombs tours which was pretty good. It was part of a package at the hotel we stayed at in Belfast, being Madison's. It was a beautiful, clear day and we could even see Scotland in the... More

Enjoyed the scenery and trails around Giant's Causeway but having driven all the way up north for it, wasn't worth the time. More

The causeway is at one end of the beautiful Antrim coast road, 3 hour drive from Belfast. You can pay £5 to park at the hotel, or take the north entrance and park for free. Access to the causeway is free. Beautiful spot for one of a kind photos. If you park at the hotel you can take a bus... More

I had dreamed of visiting the Causeway since I was a teenager, and this year I managed to fulfill my dream. It didn't disappoint me. It's no wonder that ancient people thought this was the work of some kind of being, as the shapes of the basalt columns are way too perfect. It's fun to walk on top of them... More
