Our family of five from America (all GoT fans) loved this tour. Our guide, Lar, was an extra on the show, and an engaging and entertaining guide for the day. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. He was detailed in what happened at each stop (even showing us the scenes via iPad) and was great about taking loads of photos.
I highly recommend this tour if you are a lover of the show and want to do a deep dive. Every place we went was beautiful - wonderful way to spend the day.

First of all, the service was amazing, we missed the bus pick up, but once we contacted them they made everything in their power to help us meet them without compromising their itinerary and we actually managed to get to them!
We were really excited to experience this tour after reading all the glowing recommendations and every little bit was true.
The places we visited are breathtakingly beautiful and the hikes were pretty easy to get through.
The nicest part was having a native Irish person who was also an extra on the show guiding us through it all, giving us glimpses of how it really was like and all these fun stories and curiosities about the show.
The whole day was interesting and full of great sceneries, very fun!
Thank you to the team for helping us get this experience, the guide for being so energetic and full of stories all the way through and our wonderfully skilled driver for driving safely through the tightest little gates 😱

I had the pleasure of experiencing both Game of Thrones tours in Belfast and I must say that they were both pretty awesome in different ways. This particular tour group however, definitely caters to the die hard fans and is really what you want to do if you’re here to maximize your GOT experience. My tour guide was Brian (who was highly knowledgeable, accommodating, funny and patient). This tours provides videos clips while the bus is en route, stories from behind the scenes and special access when necessary. The day I attended, they were able to get me special access to the “Winterfell Festival 2017” and it was definitely worth every penny. We got to take photos with the dire wolves, got early access to the forest that serves as the King’s Road and also plenty of free time to explore the Winterfell Grounds. Brian our tour guide was nothing short of amazing (and I did not expect this given that he didn’t look the part of the typical tour guide) but he was simply amazing; especially as I was the late straggler who couldn’t take enough photos. He was courteous and never showed any annoyance. This tour also has the bonus of having the Stark propers (fur coats and prop swords) so if you’re ready to truly live out your GOT tour geekness, this is the tour guide to do.

Hi Steven,
Thanks for taking the time to write this truly generous review! You seem to have had Brian as your guide on both our coach tours from Belfast, our resident real life Iron Born reaver! His partner designed and made our Iron Born costumes which I'm glad you appreciated. You are correct when you say we cater to the die hard fans, even those disappointed by season 8 and still waiting for GRRM to publish Winds of Winter, but nonethelesss in love with the world he built. We serve those who love that world. Valar Dohaeris :)

Andrew our tour guide was great from the off. Looked the part and was absolutely hilarious. he kept us both engaged for the duration of the tour and even my wife (who has never seen a single episode) loved the tour and was interested by the stories and information given about the making of the show and the people he worked with.
Despite being a rather blustery and cold Northern Ireland day we still both had an awesome time on the tour, just make sure you pack for all weather.
The content of the tour and the locations were absolutely stunning and coupled with absolutely fantastic GOT fan information it was one of the best days out I have had in a long time

Hello Tpun1,
Thanks so much for the awesome review and recommendation! We're delighted to hear you both had such a great experience seeing the filming locations with Andrew. Andrew is a fantastic story teller and entertainer, there is never a dull moment on one of his tours. We're also delighted to heat your wife has now become a fan! You guys have loads of binge watching to do before you return to try another tour ;-)

Had the most spectacular day with Richard exploring some iconic places from the show. Absolutely cannot recommend this tour company highly enough-had such fun and they were so helpful/accommodating. Even if you aren’t the biggest GOT fan, the scenic views and authentic storytelling make it so worth the trip if you’re looking to try something unique.

This tour exceeded all of our expectations! We went on the Winterfell Trek from Belfast. The tour guides at Game of Thrones Tours were extras in Game of Thrones, you can't go wrong with any of them. Richard was ours, funny, super knowledgable, and even with a small group was entertaining the whole day. He took all the pictures we could ever want of us and taught us how to fight with swords. Rob was so kind in helping us sort out our tour even with covid messing up plans beforehand. Couldn't recommend this tour more. Go go go

I specifically emailed GOT Tours to find when Andrew was working so I could book a spot on his tour. I met Andrew last summer in Nashville and got to talk to him a bit about his adventures as an extra on the show. When I found out he guided these tours, being a huge fan of the show and books, I knew I had to visit Belfast and join him for the day. I ended up doing this tour and the Iron Islands tour the same weekend and thoroughly enjoyed myself! The Winterfell Trek takes you to a whole lot of filming locations centered around the Starks and Winterfell in the show. As you visit each filming location, they’ll show you pics on an iPad, or laminates of what the locations looked like in the show as you visit. They show you the buildings used as the Winterfell courtyards, and where they shot scenes with Tyrion in season 1, you get to meet A dire wolf or two, check out one of the GOT themed doors that were carved with show related things, and walk off the steak and Guinness pie you ate at lunch on a trek at Tollymore Forest in the afternoon. I also loved that they have cloaks and swords for you to use for photo ops at the ruins of Inch Abbey. All in all, a day well spent!

Hello Cheesehead74....
Thank you for the wonderful review of your tour with Andrew. We're delighted to welcome you all the way from Nashville, it takes a serious fan of Game of Thrones to travel all that way to spend a couple of days touring Westeros with us!! We're well chuffed (very happy)

The tour was amazing!!! We had Richard as our tour guide and he was fantastic! He was friendly and really knew what he was talking about. He told us tons of stories from when he was a wildling extra in GOT and was super entertaining.
The tour itself was great. We were able to go to several locations and at each he walked us through the scenes and played a short clip of the sequence filmed. It was so cool to be right there imagining the scene being filmed! For those that aren’t huge GOT fans( like we are:) the scenery along the tour was beautiful and worth seeing regardless!
10/10 loved the tour and I would highly recommend:)

It will be hard for any future GOT tour to top this day and tour. Robbie, who has amazing stories to share (loved his endless dying in an episode story) and fun facts behind the scene. The castles and walks and scenery was stunning and u can totally understand why these locations have been choosen as the world of GOT. One highlight after another (no spoilers here)!
Gladly we booked this trip as the tourguide for the Iron Islands was a no show but Robbie managed it all professionally and we picked up some of the stranded people. Fantastic tour and guide. He may need his own lil thrown!

Hi Peggy,
Thank you very much for the excellent review of your tour with Robbie. We're delighted to hear he handled everything so smoothly on Saturday. It is lovely to hear he made such a positive impression and created a memorable experience for all those who joined him.
We'll see what we can do about a throne for Robbie ;-)

What a day. Can honestly say I enjoyed every minute of our tour around Game of Thrones territory and hearing some great stories about days on set and the behind the scenes work that went into making GOT. Our guide Brian was great craic and very knowledgeable. A massive thanks to him for bringing everything to life and really making us want to go back and rewatch the whole series! The bus trips felt short while watching GOT clips on the TV and the walking was lovely taking in the beauty of the landscape. Really can't recommend the tour highly enough 👌

Hi, I was wondering what the fitness level is needed for these tours? I would love to bring my father he is a big GOT fan but not if its constant hiking. How long do the tours last in total? Thanks for your time.

Hi Ashley,
All of our tours are full day tours starting at 7.30, 8.00 & 8.30 am and finishing at 5.30, 6.00 & 7.30 pm. Our tours while we drive to locations on a coach are primarily walking tours that include up to 6 kilometres of trekking. The treks are divided up into smaller portions but will include rough terrain, steep hills, gravel paths, muddy forest trails and stony beaches. Our tours are very physical and most visitors finish each tour exhausted but happy. Our tours are unsuitable for anyone who has mobility issues or serious health issues.
We hope this answers your question. Please email us directly if you'd like more detailed information on a specific tour.

I am booking 2 nights at the Winds of Winter Cottage and would like to take 2 different GOT tours during that time. I will be coming from Dublin.
Will it be easy to get from the GOT tours to this location?
Game of Thrones Tours (Belfast)
Belfast, UK64 contributions
Hi Wanda,
In order to both of our tours you will need to be able to get to Jurys Inn Hotel, Great Victoria Street, Belfast.
Based on a quick Google search, we're assuming the Winds of Winter cottage is located at Mount Stewart House, from that location to Belfast takes approximately 40 minutes by car.
If you would like to discuss further options please email us directly, info @ game of thrones tours. com
I am on a cruise ship that docks in Belfast at 8am on Monday, June 15, 2020. This tour is scheduled to leave at 8:30am from from Jurys Inn. I saw that a taxi ride is about 10-15 minutes. I should have just enough time to get off the ship for my tour, but just in case I am running a few minutes behind, will the shuttle wait for me?
If not, what are my other options? It seems as if this tour is the ONLY Monday Game of Thrones tour.
Additionallly, I noticed that this tour does not guarantee a Direwolves experience. Are there other Monday Game of Thrones tours that offer this experience?
Sincerely,
Jason

Hi Cosstal
I think we've answered these questions for you via email already.
For anyone else reading: our coaches can wait a maximum of 5 minutes for late arrivals. After that they have to leave as they are on a schedule with appointments at locations for specific times.
If you really want to do the tour and know you won't make it to meet our coach on time, the next option is to take a taxi to the first meeting point. We recommend emailing us for specific details if this is the case (location info, timings, where to meet our guide, taxi costs etc)
As for Direwolves..... ssssshhhhh.... it's a surprise ;-)

Question:
Hello, thank you for your responses. Please tell me how many GOT tours leave from Belfast? Please also tell me which ones they are, their names, so that I can be sure to reserve them. I don’t want to miss anything.
Lastly, if I choose more than one GOT tour, will already visited locations be repeated? How would one tour be unique from the other? Thank You!
