We did a private Game of Thrones Tour which included a visit to the Giants' Causeway. We were very interested in history, culture, and scenery, in addition to Game of Thrones sites, and this tour provided all of that.
Our driver and guide was Dean, and he was excellent. We visited many beautiful sites and ruins, including some spots that would have been inaccessible in a large coach. Some highlights were the Binevanagh Lookout, Downhill Dumesne and the Mussendem Temple, Dunluce Castle, Ballintoy Harbour, Larrybane Quarry, and, of course, the Giants' Causeway.
Dean has studied history, so he was very informative and had interesting stories about many of the places we visit. He is also a longtime resident of the area. Furthermore, he has family members who were extras in the show, so he had some stories about that, too.
We really enjoyed our day and left feeling that we had learned a lot, filled our eyes and our camera, and made a new friend.

We had an absolutely wonderful day visiting all the Coastal Causeway, which included the Giant Causeway and many of the places in which different scenes of the Game of Thrones TV series were shooted. Frances, our guide and driver couldn't have possible been kinder and she gave us lots of interesting information. One of the very few tours that do not leave from Belfast. A must indeed if you stay in the west of the northern part of ireland.

Traveling with Glenara Elite Travel was the highlight of my adventures across Ireland! We saw so many tourist spots and even got to stop by a local pub. The company is very well managed, organized, and communicative. Frances arranged a wonderful tour guide, Mark, to show us around and we loved the amount of stories and facts he had to offer. I learned a lot about the beautiful country and enjoyed being able to see so much in just one day. It was completely worth it and will definitely add to my travel album! I encourage everyone wanting to see a lot of Northern Ireland in a short amount of time to travel with Glenara Elite Travel.

Me, my partner and my daughter spent a fantastic day with Frances and her commissioned tour guide Mark, from Dalriada Kingdom Tours. We had the perfect day out starting at 9.30am and, due to a number of delays - not in any way shape or form an issue and ably resolved by Frances - we did not arrive back at hotel until 9.30pm (complete value for money!). We visited Mussenden Temple, Portstewart Strand, Dunluce Castle, Ballintoy Harbour, The Dark Hedges, Carrick-a-rede rope bridge and The Giants Causeway. We can wholeheartedly recommend Frances and if you would like to know more about the day then you can read about it on my travel blog, Victoria Visits (dot co dot uk).

We've been to Ireland several times but never been able to make it to the Giants Causeway. So glad we were finally able to make it on our Ireland/Iceland cruise. It is such an interesting a astounding creation of nature. Really cool!

From pick up to the end of tour everything was perfect! They also let us choose a couple of stops that weren’t planned before. Visiting N. Ireland with them is a perfect way to discover the land of fairy tales!

To start what a great day we had!! My boyfriend and I booked with Frances / Glenara Elite Travel just a couple of days before going and on the day Frances came and picked us up at our location in the morning which was very helpful. What a day it was, we visited many places such as The dark hedges, Downhill beach, The Strand, Giants Causeway, Ballintoy harbour and many more. Frances was very accommodating with if we needed to stop for lunch or a drink, She explained every place we went to and gave us as much time as we would like to spend there. My boyfriend and I highly recommend doing a tour with her!! Frances also said if we had any place in mind from Game of Thrones that we wanted to see that was not in the plan she would take us! Honestly could not thank Frances enough for giving us such a great day.

Just returned from Ireland where we took the one-day Game of Thrones tour offered by Glenara Elite. It was super. We saw all the locations and Glenara even provided some costumes for photos. The service was exceptional as they made some special arrangements for our group of four to be picked up in Portrush. Thanks Frances and Mark.
