From Belfast to the Antrim Coast: A Private Tour Like No Other
Few journeys in the world rival the drive from Belfast to the Antrim Coast. Winding roads, dramatic cliff edges, and views over the wild Atlantic make this one of Northern Ireland’s greatest treasures. Yet while countless visitors flock to the Giant’s Causeway and Carrick-a-Rede rope bridge, not everyone experiences this route as it was meant to be seen — in style, in comfort, and with the freedom to explore at your own pace. That is the difference a private luxury tour makes.

Why Choose a Private Tour from Belfast?
The Antrim Coast is a magnet for travellers, cruise ship passengers, and day trippers. Standard coach tours will show you the highlights, but they come with rigid schedules, crowded stops, and very little flexibility.
A private chauffeur-driven tour gives you:
Complete flexibility: Stop for photos, coffee, or a detour without worrying about holding up a bus.
Luxury travel: The Mercedes V-Class offers first-class comfort, with space for groups, luggage, and plenty of legroom.
Local insight: Your driver isn’t just a chauffeur, but a knowledgeable guide who can share stories and hidden gems along the route.
Privacy: Whether travelling as a couple, family, or group of friends, a private transfer ensures the journey is yours alone.
Highlights Along the Antrim Coast
Your private tour from Belfast can be tailored to your interests, but some destinations are unmissable:
Carrickfergus Castle: One of the best-preserved medieval castles in Ireland, just outside Belfast.
The Gobbins Cliff Path: A thrilling walk along bridges and tunnels carved into the cliff face.
Glenariff Forest Park: Known as the ‘Queen of the Glens’, offering waterfalls and peaceful walking trails.
Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge: A dramatic rope bridge suspended over a 30-metre chasm, with views of Rathlin Island.
The Giant’s Causeway: A UNESCO World Heritage Site and natural wonder, with 40,000 interlocking basalt columns.
Old Bushmills Distillery: Ireland’s oldest licensed distillery, where whiskey tasting is a must.
The best part? With a private driver, you can take your time, skip the crowds, and linger where it suits you most.
Why the Journey is Just as Important
Too often, tours focus solely on the destinations, forgetting that the drive itself is breathtaking. The Causeway Coastal Route is one of the most scenic drives in the world, winding along cliffs and offering breath-taking ocean views. In a chauffeur-driven Mercedes V-Class, you can relax, take in the scenery, and arrive refreshed rather than tired from navigating narrow roads.
Tailored Experiences
Every traveller is different. Some want to focus on history and culture, others on natural wonders or food and drink. At Belfast Transfers and Tours, we design each Antrim Coast tour around your priorities. Want more time at the Giant’s Causeway? Prefer a quiet coastal pub lunch instead of a busy restaurant? It’s your tour, your way.
