The bus rides play awesome behind the scenes videos of the filming. The first stop of the tour is Winterfell. Be prepared that it looks very little like the winterfell on TV and don't expect it to because I did. CGI is amazing! It was still so cool and Bryan showed us screenshots of the scenes in the exact spots they were filmed which really helps with the visual. From winterfell we did a beautiful hike that explored where they filmed The Twins, scenes from Brienne and Jaime's journey in season 3, and more. The scenery was gorgeous and I feel I learned so much about GoT, filming in general, and Irish history. The whole tour had a lot of Irish history which was cool. From there we went to the Cuan for lunch for a great meal and then the best part was meeting the direwolves!!! We met Summer and Greywind and they're the goodest boys that ever gooded. As an FYI they aren't promised on the tour because being live animals they just can't do that every day so I got really lucky. It's not scheduled activity. Next was Inch Abbey, where the scenes with Robb being named King of the North were filmed. Bryan gave us all cloaks and swords and we re enacted a scene from season 1 and it was so fun and silly to get into. Inch Abbey is beautiful too. Lastly we went to Tollymore Forest Park where the Starks found the direwolves and where the first scene of GoT with the white walkers was filmed. Not only was it cool for GoT but the gardens and nature is absolutely STUNNING. The tour lasted from 8:30 AM - 6:00 PM and was one of my favorite days from the trip!

I didn't know much about Belfast but I certainly knew that it was home of Game Of Thrones…read moreproduction. This Game Of Thrones Tour offers two routes from Belfast. South route(Winterfell) and North route(Ironisland). Since north route sounded more scenic as it goes along Northern Irish coast, we chose the latter. It was £50 per person and whole day affair. So, make sure to leave your entire day open for this. We rendezvoused at Jury's hotel at 7:45am and boarded on the bus. And our guide Richard was an extra in the show himself. His red long beard once made me think that he was a Tormond's stunt double.(but he wasn't) Entire way through he was talking but NEVER ONCE I wanted him to be quiet. Because he was very informative and HILARIOUS! They are also equipped with plenty of House of Greyjoy costume and weapons(swords and axes) for photo shoot. Although we were tourists, we became the attraction ourselves when people saw us in the group wearing those, carrying weapon at the House of Greyjoy site. Every stop was breathtakingly scenic. I honestly think that you can still enjoy even if you don't watch the show. Definitely check this tour out and ask for Richard. He's really a fun guy.

The trails were beautiful, filled with lots of greens and MOSQUITOS! Be careful, I didn't count them, but there were millions!!! Aside from the mosquitos, my husband loved it! He wore his cloak and took some pretty cool pictures! It was nice to see him so excited. Aside from the tour we did, they have others: Archery movie set experiences, The Narrow Sea boat voyage, Tyrion's Axe Throwing experience, Luxury Private Tours for Winterfell & Kingdom of Mourne/Luxury Private Tours for Dragonstone & Giants Causeway, Glamping Overnight Mini Breaks, and Meet the Direwolves at Winterfell Castle. They have a pretty cool but expensive gift shop as well for all of you hard core GOT fans. Tip: Online booking is highly recommended! Irelands only Game of Thrones Visitor Attraction.

Maybe 3 stars for non Game of Thrones fan but definitely 4 stars minimum for huge fans like me. As…read morewe were staying in Belfast, I rented a car to get here. Google map shows that there is a way to get here via public transportations, but definitely easier and time efficient to drive down here yourself. Admission was £8.50 per person just to get in. There are guided tour via bicycle. Although Winterfell's distinctive disk shaped roofs are all CG works, you'll recognize these buildings from "in the castle view". There are few sites in this compound that were used for other scenes such as Audley's Castle where Rob Stark set the camp during the battle of Oxcross(where he received the news of his father's death). Everything here got me excited "oh yeah! I remover here! This is from that scene!" Although I came here on my own, I'd recommend to come here via gameofthronestours.com. It's £50. Coming here on my own cost far more(£120 for rental car alone). If you are a huge GoT fan, this place is a must!

Chris, the guide, is one of the most charming and enthusiastic hosts I've ever encountered. A "titanorak", his knowledge and passion for the dockyard and its history is communicated extremely effectively through the video and live commentary. The actual dockyard itself is of course extremely fascinating and I found seeing Titanic's dock and the great H&W cranes Samson & Goliath up close particularly thrilling. It's moving too - I hadn't realised half the Titanic's dead were its crew, marked in grass where she was built. We also drove past the studio were GoT Season 6 was being filmed RIGHT THEN. Nbd. I believe you can get a pass for this and the open top bus tour for £15, which seems like excellent value. Just the tram ticket is valid for two days as well. You might be interested to know that this business is supporting Chris's spiritual work as the chaplain in the Titanic Quarter, he and his wife also run the very popular Dock restaurant nearby.

The Titanic Quarter is steeped in history and this interactive tour is the best way to see it all in under an hour. The concept is quite simple you, you can hop on The Wee Tram at one of eight stops around the Titanic Quarter. The electric tram comes equipped with TV's telling the story of each attraction - you even get given traditional yardmen's hats as you travel, this really helps the passengers get in to the spirit of the Tram. Chris, the tour guide, is full of knowledge, especially knowledge of the Titanic - you'll get more insight in to what went on in the early nineteen hundreds on The Wee Tram than in the Titanic Museum. A personal highlight for me was getting up close and personal with Samson and Goliath and seeing the vast ship yard. The tour costs £6 for adults which is an absolute snip when you consider that the ticket can be used over 2 days. Couldn't recommend this experience enough!

I gotta say though that the tour itself was stunningly good and huge. Lots to see in almost all aspects of film making and ace friendly staff. I've no idea of cost as we didn't pay. We were there at least 3 hours and honestly we could have given it all day. There's an overpriced cafe within and an excellent restaurant which I will review separately There's a ticket office located in the Banbridge Outlet and from there you walk to a bus that takes you to the site (and back) where the studio tour is located - about 3/4 miles away. I don't understand why we walk to the bus rather than the bus coming to guests. Other tour buses were there chiefly from Belfast and Dublin with lots of folks from cruise ships but there's no sense of overcrowding. Really worth a good few hours.

Our Tour Guide Adam delivered an informative and entertaining two hours, which at only £8 per person, was great value for money. We wandered at a leisurely pace viewing a huge number of beautiful, thought provoking and inspiring artworks. It's great to see there's so much more to Belfast than old, sectarian murals from our troubled past. Instead this tour highlights recent, contemporary, Urban Art in and around Belfast's Cathedral Quarter which has sprung up over the last few years revitalising and brightening the city. We learnt how different pieces of Street Art were created, the techniques employed, who the Artists are and background stories of how the works came to be. Thanks to Seedhead Arts, this is definitely the best thing currently happening in Belfast. I very highly recommend this Tour - it's wonderful food for the eyes and uplifting for the soul.
