Robbie was the best! - This tour immediately transported us to Westeros. Robbie was AMAZING! His stories, game of thrones knowledge, and history lessons made the tour so enjoyable. And because we were ahead of schedule, Robbie went out of his way to bring us to a few extra locations (like the first Catholic Church in Ireland and St Patrick’s Grave) because we were from Boston! An absolute treat, and the best time spent in Northern Ireland! Thank you!!

Fantastic Day! - Excellent time! Easy pick up and drop off, we did both Winterfell and Iron Islands, on 2 days. This tour is great! You get to see where the filming was done, tour guide Richard was fantastic. He's Friendly and knowledgeable with good stories on his times as an extra in the show. You get the double whammy of seeing amazing Irish landscapes and old ruins. A trip to Giants Causeway too! Definitely recommend. It's a great price for the day, you pay your own lunch at the pub they organise. Food was great at both! Highly recommend! Thanks Richard. Les & Sui Terry and Monica

Best Birthday EVER - We did a private tour with Richard for my friend's birthday and we had the most INCREDIBLE time. Not only was he a great tour guide, he's just a great guy! We spent the entire day together and the conversations about anything and everything never stopped. We were originally scheduled to do the group bus tour, but it was unfortunetly canceled (they were very nice about trying to book us on an alternate tour) but I'm so glad that we had the chance to do the private tour instead. I would do this tour again in a HEARTBEAT and would reccomend this to EVERYONE who is a GOT fan!

Winterfell Trek with Robbie the Archer - What an incredible experience for any Game of Thrones fan! Our guide Robbie's genuine passion shone through as he shared personal experiences as an extra and how the show shaped Belfast's community. The locations were beautiful and historically fascinating beyond just being GOT filming sites. As a longtime fan, I got emotional seeing Winterfell, Castle Frey, and the northern forests in person. Robbie was funny, upbeat, and high-energy throughout, eagerly answering questions, discussing fan theories, and sharing North Ireland's history. I absolutely loved this tour and plan to book the Iron Islands tour if I return. The North remembers :)

Brilliant day for true fans. - We went on 13th August tour. Our guide Robbie was brilliant entertained us with stories from his time working as an extra. He was very informative about the sites we visited. John our driver was lovely and we were in safe hands with him at the wheel. Brilliant day leaving us ready to start watching the series from the beginning again. Would recommend it to all fans. Will hopefully do the Antrim coast tour soon.

Best Game of Thrones Tour - Our guide Robbie was great. A true Game of Thrones nerd with huge knowledge of the series, in which he himself starred as an extra and can tell exciting background information. The best guide I've ever had and I've done a lot of tours.

A fabulous tour despite the rain! - Despite having the only rainy day in April 😂 the Winterfell tour was amazing! Robbie was very knowledgeable and shared his GoT experiences with us and brought the locations to life with a (soggy) picture board and great sense of humour! The lunch at The Barn was also outstanding. We thoroughly enjoyed the trip and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Belfast. Thanks, David & Julie 👏😎

Fantastic tour - Would have given the tour 5 stars, which it should have got, but the trip from Belfast was cancelled, so was offered to join the tour from Dublin at the first stop, but had to make my own way to Newcastle Co Down, and from Downpatrick at the end, but the tour operator was fantastic, gave full instructions on which bus to catch and where from on Belfast to Newcastle, there booked me a taxi for the short trip to Tollymore Forest to meet with Dublin tour, we did all the same stops, just in reverse order, are guide Robbie was fantastic and he has starred in Game of Thrones and played several roles, so knows his stuff, told us loafs of details and showed us pictures and videos of clips from the series and how they looked on screen to what you see in real life. Tollymore Forest is very beautiful and a must see, even if you are not a fan of Game of Thrones, you get your monies worth here, tour does involve a good bit of walking, but the many stops you make while the guide gives you information about the scenes filmed, gives you a break, if I ever come back to Ireland would definitely do this tour again
