Discover Northern Ireland Tour 2025

Having been delighted with the 10 Day Iconic Scenes of Ireland Tour in 2023, I had no hesitation in booking the Discover Northern Ireland Tour this year. Again it exceeded all expectations. Partly due to the fabulous group of people on the tour but mostly to our amazing driver/guide, Damian McKenna. His wealth of knowledge, sense of humour and personal anecdotes greatly enhanced our knowledge and understanding of the area. He was thoughtful, kind and connected with everyone on the tour. Again, a great itinerary, good choice of centrally-located hotels and a very comfortable coach. Thank you My Ireland Tour for another enjoyable and memorable holiday.

Damian McKenna- The best tour guide you could possibly have! My family and I just completed our northern Ireland tour with Damian, who was absolutely incredible. His sense of humor, kindness, patience, and just pure genuine soul makes him a one of a kind guide. Damian shares personal stories attributed to the area, gives his honest opinions, recommends the best places to go in your free time, and loves to share a drink at dinner making connections with all of the people on his tour. Everybody walks onto the bus the first day of strangers from different places and very different personalities and leaves as a family at the end- all of us agreed, how wonderful of a tour guide we had, even sharing hugs, misty eyes and photos at the end! Hope to be back soon for an Ireland and Scotland tour!

Great tour of Northern Ireland. We had a fabulous, knowledgeable tour guide and driver!! Enjoyed the small group a lot. One of the best coach tours we have had. Highly recommend My Ireland Tour!!

My Ireland Tour of Northern Ireland was a perfect way for us to explore the area where our ancestors came from. The tour is well timed, not at all rushed and travelling in a half-full coach was a huge bonus! The hotels and meals included were lovely with every detail taken care of. The scenery, day tour guides, rest stops and main highlights all made for a flawless 5 days in Northern Ireland. By far, the real gem of this tour was Colm, our guide/driver who not only provided us with a safe journey and expert driving but was also our teacher of history, language, geography, religion, music and politics and all done with the right measure of humour to keep our fabulous group engaged the entire time. Hats off to Colm and the team at My Irish Tour for providing a great tour experience!

We just returned from a great family vacation on MyIreland's 'Discover Northern Ireland' tour. The Titanic Museum was really informative and very moving. We also learned of 'the Troubles', visited Belfast, Bushmill's Distillery, Derry, Lough Erne / Devenish Island, and Trim Castle. Travel with a small, friendly group of 26 was great and our driver/guide Shelley was talented and fun. We previously did the Iconic tour and thoroughly enjoyed that, too. MyIreland delivers fabulous trips at great prices!!!!

This is the second tour we have done with My Ireland Tour and it exceeded our expectations again! The first one we did was two years ago and covered the Republic of Ireland. This one was Northern Ireland. It is invaluable having such a pleasant and knowledgeable driver/guide educating us about what we're seeing, where we're going, and much more all while navigating the coach through narrow streets. Our driver/guide was Sean ran a tight ship and kept us on schedule. We were fortunate that everyone on our tour were pleasant and timely in getting to the coach. I learned so much more about Northern Ireland than I expected from Sean and our specials tour guides in Belfast and Derry. Ireland is one of the most beautiful countries in the world and this was the perfect way to see it. Being on a tour provides for a much greater understanding of where you are and what you are seeing. We had plenty of time on our own to see things in addition to the planned tour, such as The Crown pub in Belfast.

We did the 6 day discover Northern Ireland Tour. It was amazing! Our driver/guide Sean was wonderful. Very kind and entertaining. He had so much knowledge about Ireland and the places we visited. The tour was very well planned and hotels we stayed in were clean and very comfortable. Meals were excellent and we liked that it was a smaller tour to get to know everyone. It was an incredible experience and we can’t wait to do another tour with my Ireland tours in the future!

The Discover Northern Ireland tour was excellent! Our driver/guide Sean was friendly and attentive, informative, and entertaining as he taught us about the places we visited, and he is clearly a skillful driver. The full-sized motor coach was very comfortable, and, as promised, our tour group was small enough that we each could have had a full double seat to ourselves if we wanted. The driving legs of the tour were never overly long since the trip was carefully planned, and we had timely bathroom stops. Each of the hotels we slept in were very comfortable, the dinners and breakfasts good, and the staff friendly and helpful. The sites and local tours arranged by the master planner were amazing, and we saw and learned so much. By the end of the tour, I felt fulfilled in my desire to see and learn about Northern Ireland for the first time. Everyone in the tour agreed we would gladly take a My Ireland Tour again. It was wonderful!

My friend and I just finished the Discover Northern Ireland tour and it was fabulous. Sean O'Sullivan, our tour guide, was outstanding in every way. I felt totally taken care of each day from arrival through the end. Sean was so knowledgeable about the area. He was very friendly and easy to get along with. We had nice hotels with luggage delivered and picked up from our room. The meals were good, with sufficient options. I would highly recommend My Ireland Tour!

Great 6 day tour of northern Ireland - begins and ends in Dublin. Great price, included good hotels and all attractions. We will be coming back to My Ireland Tour for future travel.

The tour of Northern Ireland in May was our second experience with My Ireland Tour. We enjoyed our first tour with the company and didn't think twice about using them again. Their tours are simply the best: knowledgable drivers with entertaining personalities, top notch accommodations (lodging and meals), and knowledge of cultural and historical spots not to be missed. Being part of a small group of tourists is very pleasant and gave us the opportunity to enjoy new friends. If we want to plan another tour of Ireland, England or Scotland, it will be with My Ireland Tour. Judy and Fred Reuter

My friend and I had a fantastic experience with My Ireland Tour! We did the Discover Northern Ireland Tour with Cathal as our driver. He was fantastic and shared so much history about Northern Ireland, as well as information about everywhere we drove through. The pace of the tour was perfect with a balance of planned activities and free time on our own, particularly in the evenings. Because we had a small group, we all had the chance to get to know each other, particularly during the included three course dinners, which was an added bonus. I've already told friends thinking about visiting Ireland about how wonderful our tour was and will continue to recommend My Ireland Tour.

I did the Northern Ireland tour. Tour went very smoothly; lovely accommodations, good food, very comfortable bus, and our guide, Colm Clarke, had an encyclopedic knowledge of Irish history. The step on guides in Belfast and Derry explained “the troubles” clearly and with no bias. This is a great tour at a very reasonable price. Good value. I would travel with this company again. No complaints.

we did the discover northern Ireland tour on September 6Th Coln Clarke was the Bus tour guide /driver he was wonderful very knowledgeable about Irish history he also had a great sense of humor the trip was great the hotels ,meals and services was top notch the Tours in Belfast , the walking tours of Derry all gave a insight to the troubled times the tours of the titanic memorial was super all in all well worth the price and would recommend this trip

We took the Northern Ireland tour this time and to our amazement, Colm Clarke was again our driver and guide. It truly felt like returning to see old friends. The tour was great, again Colm was so and made things so fun. Our guide in Belfast, Nollaig, was full of information and kept things lively even while talking about things like The Troubles. In Derry, our guide was Theresa, again a knowledgeable and passionate guide. We loved Bushmill's and Giant's Causeway. The Lough Erne Cruise and the trip to Devinish Island was almost magical with the mist rising up off the river as the sun got higher. Shannon set us up with a private tour from our wish list after Northern Ireland and it was everything we could have hoped for. We got to stay in the places we wanted to explore, stayed at great placed and the food was unbelievable good. We saw a lot in 6 days - Kilkenny Castle, Cobh and the Titanic Museum and the statue of Annie Moore, then on to Kinsale and the Lusitania Museum and Old Head, all the shops (such wonderful little hidden gems. Then we went to Dingle Peninsula and spent 2 days in a delightful BNB and explored. Our last days, we revisited the Cliffs of Moher and then to Galway and a day on the largest Aran Island. We couldn't have asked for a better day - water calm, no wind, and sunny. Our driver and Guide, Pat C. was great. He stopped for photos and had suggestions for others, always made sure we were well settled in our hotels and knew his stuff. Thanks for making our trip to Ireland, once again, a delightful and experience packed trip. We'll be back!

This is my second tour with this company. I did the Northern Ireland tour in September and Colm was the guide driver of the bus. He brought Irish history alive. The additional guides we had in Belfast and Derry were fabulous sharing their knowledge of these two cities and 'The Troubles'. Great hotels and meals also included in the tour. I would recommend this company and this tour.

Northern Ireland tour was great!

We took the Northern Ireland tour in early July 2023, and it was a fantastic experience. Setting aside the fantastic price, our tour bus was spacious, clean, and, comfortable, as were all our hotel accomodations. The breakfasts and dinners were consistently excellently tasting, and there were numerous choices for both. Our driver/tour guide, George, was definitely one of the best we have experienced in our travels, as he was personable, highly knowledgeable, and a very skilled driver. The excursions were included in the tour price (as was the lodging and morning/evening meal) and there was more than enough time at each location to do some exploring after the day had come to an end.

My husband and I travelled to Northern Ireland with My Ireland Tours in September 2022. Our driver/tour guide, Garey, provided very concise instructions as well as informative commentary every step of the way. We had two interesting activities every day. While I booked the tour primarily for the Giants Causeway, every part of the trip provided us with fabulous scenery. The drive along the Antrim coast was spectacular. The Step-on Guides in Belfast and Derry were very informative, as they helped us to understand the turmoil in their cities. The travel between each stop was reasonable and we always arrived at our final destination in good time. Having our breakfast and evening meal included in our tour simplified everything. Lunch stops included the Titanic Experience, the Giants Causeway and the Ulster American Folk Park. We cannot praise Garey enough for the way he took charge of our group and his amazing talent for maneuvering the full-size coach. It would have been a far more stressful journey if we had attempted to do it on our own. The ease with which our booking was managed was also great. Kevin kept us posted on the payment deadline and ensured that our arrival and departure information was complete. Although we arrived two days early, he arranged for us to remain in the same room when we joined the tour group. If you haven't been to Ireland before I would highly recommend using My Ireland Tours. Your vacation will be trouble free.

In the past five years I have used My Ireland Tour twice, and they do not disappoint. First you can design your own itinerary, if you desire, if you do they will help you with suggestions, that will enhance your trip. They will book you into hotels that have great reputations, sometimes even 5 star at a reasonable trip cost. Last, they provide well respected tour guide drivers in great coaches. A great tour guide/driver makes all the difference in a tour. The most recent tour of Northern Ireland with driver guide Raymond Wilson was truly a great experience. The support and communication with the office staff was always helpful and professional. I would never consider a trip to Ireland without using My Ireland Tours.

Delayed by the pandemic, we've finally been able to take our THIRD tour with My Ireland Tour. This time we went to Northern Ireland and the experience was as wonderful, if not more so, than our previous two tours. As has been the case in all of our previous tours with My Ireland Tours, the superb service came into play even before our trip began. The staff provided all of the assistance we needed to arrange our journey and guided us skillfully through all of the new processes and procedures for travel. The tour itself was absolutely delightful! Our driver / guide, Garey, was knowledgeable and entertaining. He demonstrated great skill driving the coach on the sometimes narrow roads of the countryside and through the congestion and tight quarters on the cities. The schedule provided ample time to enjoy each of the sites that we visited and the walking tour of Derry was a highlight of the tour. We continue to prefer My Ireland Tour because of the value for money, excellent customer service, well crafted tours, smaller group sizes and superb driver / guides. When it comes time for our fourth visit, we won't look to any other tour company for our travel needs!

My very first trip with my ireland tours..booked a northern Ireland tour with them..was a little apprehensive as being a single elderly lady traveling on my own was not sure how it would be..I can't tell you it was one of the best tours I have taken..from the very start..the prompt interaction with eric via email was very reasureing as all my questions were answered promptly..it was good to be met by our guide/driver Garry at dublin airport..after that it was smooth sailing all the way to Northern Ireland! He took good care of us and gave us a full insight into the Irish way of life with stories and historical details of the places we visited..we were kept at very good comfortable hotels each night..all in all..a great memorable trip..will definitely book with them again..many thanks

Tour of Northern Ireland. Brilliantly organised, right amount of time in each place. Led by Kieran who was extremely knowledgeable and personable. Very safe and professional driving. Good attention to detail throughout. Hotels of good standard. May well choose your company for another trip. Thank you.

Our experience with our My Ireland tour of Northern Ireland was very good. We appreciated the well planned itinerary, which included interesting stops as well as some down time each day. The accommodations and food exceeded expectations. Our specialty guides were very informative and personable. Our bus driver/guide was outstanding, one of a kind – do you get me? We will take a piece of Northern Ireland home with us in our hearts.

What a marvelous experience! My husband and I were on the 5 day Northern Ireland tour from March 20-25, 2019 and enjoyed every minute of it! Our tour guide, Nigel O'Connor, was so professional and attentive to the group, always conscious of our schedule for the day but also allowing for slight changes as necessary. For example, two guests wanted to attend St. Michael's early mass one morning and that request was accommodated with an alternate pick up location for them. Thanks so much for a terrific, memorable vacation!

On our 24 day trek through the UK, Chuck and I picked up the Northern Ireland Tour through My Ireland Tours at the Belfast Titanic and continued on with the group of 26. Our driver /guide Nigel was entertaining and knowledgable about the history of the area we travelled through and answered questions for us. The countryside was spectacular, the people of Ireland warm and welcoming and the bus family entertaining. This was our first group trip in our 64 years and we both enjoyed leaving the thinking to a well organized company to do that for us for part of our trip. Cead Mile Failte is just one Gaelic saying we learned, but to all of you Go Raibh Maith Agat.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Northern Ireland with My Ireland Tours. Accomodations were excellent and the driver was very knowledgeable and entertaining.

What a great tour. We were fortunate enough to meet our daughter and son-in-law for the Northern Ireland tour. The weather was great, the food was good, and the scenery was fantastic. Our driver guide was David Breen. His knowledge and driving skills were brilliant. He was patient, informative, and funny. Not mentioned on the website is an included train ride along the coast from Coleraine to Derry-beautiful. We met some very nice people on our tour, as well as in the places we visited.
