Game of Thrones Tour in Ireland

Gli appassionati di Game of Thrones have also been enchanted by the places where the series is set, as well as by the story itself. In this regard, here are some interesting itineraries in Northern Ireland to retrace exactly the places where the events of Game of Thrones take place.

It was the artistic production center of Belfast that oversaw every organizational aspect and location for the four seasons of the series: filming was mostly done at the Titanic Studios, as well as in certain places in Northern Ireland.

It is therefore possible to participate in the Game of Thrones Tours, organized by the coach company McComb’s Coach Travel. A visit to the Causeway Coastal Route is indispensable, heavily used for numerous scenes of Game of Thrones.

Another absolutely charming place is The Dark Hedges, a tunnel formed by the intertwining of trees over the centuries.

From Belfast, you will move within County Antrim to reach Ballycastle, the town that gave birth to Varys and Lady Catelyn Stark.

You will also visit the Cushendun caves, Ballintoy (the port of Pyke in the Iron Islands), and Downhill Strand (Dragonstone).

Finally, the tour includes places that, although not particularly filmed for Game of Thrones, still represent the natural film set used for many other films and series.
This is the case, for example, of the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, a rope bridge suspended between the islet of Carrick and the mainland.
Another stop included is the Giant’s Causeway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and therefore more than worthy of attention.
