3-Day Private Northern Ireland Tour
Explore Belfast, the Causeway Coast and County Down over three private touring days. This sample itinerary suits visitors who prefer a Belfast base and a varied introduction to Northern Ireland, with city history, coastal scenery and a quieter heritage day.
Five Star Luxury Tours & Transfers is based in Hillsborough, Co. Down. Martin helps plan your route around the places you want to see, walking preferences, ticket reservations and your hotel arrangements.
The itinerary at a glance
- Start and finish: Belfast, with a return to your agreed Belfast accommodation each day.
- Duration: three touring days, up to eight hours each, including lunch stops and necessary chauffeur breaks.
- Transport: private Mercedes-Benz V-Class for up to six passengers, subject to luggage requirements.
- Touring transport: £1,800 for three standard days (£600 per vehicle per day), before any agreed extras.
Day 1: Belfast, your interests and your pace
Begin with an introduction to the city. Possible stops include City Hall, the Cathedral Quarter and the Titanic Quarter, with time for the murals and Peace Walls if these interest you. A Titanic Belfast visit requires separate timed admission and enough time inside, so we adjust the rest of the day around that booking.
For a gentler first day after travel, choose fewer stops and a relaxed lunch. Return to your Belfast hotel at the agreed time. See our Belfast City day tour for more planning options.
Day 2: The Giant’s Causeway and the coast
Travel towards the north coast for the Giant’s Causeway, with selected stops such as Dunluce Castle, Ballintoy Harbour or the Dark Hedges. We agree which stops matter most rather than assume every coastal attraction fits into eight hours.
A rope bridge crossing or distillery experience takes a larger share of the day and needs separate tickets. Discuss these before purchasing admission. The coastal route, walking time and return to Belfast are all part of the eight-hour plan. Read our Causeway day tour details.
Day 3: County Down, Hillsborough or St Patrick’s heritage
Choose a County Down day around your interests. One option combines Hillsborough village with a separately booked castle visit and time towards Newcastle and the Mournes. Another focuses on Downpatrick and St Patrick’s heritage. These are alternative priorities, not a promise to include every location.
Your preferred walks, attraction opening times and lunch plans determine the final route. See the County Down and Mourne Mountains tour or St Patrick’s Trail.
What the price covers
The standard transport price includes your agreed chauffeur-guide service, vehicle, fuel, tolls and applicable tax. Guest accommodation, meals, attraction tickets and optional gratuities are separate. Where needed and confirmed, a luggage trailer is £50 per day and chauffeur accommodation away from base is £100 per night. The written quotation confirms the total.
Airport transfers are not automatically included in these three touring days. Tell us whether you arrive in Belfast or Dublin and whether you need separate arrival or departure travel.
Planning notes from Martin
Book the route before buying timed attraction tickets. A longer indoor visit, bridge crossing or substantial walk means making space elsewhere in the day. Tell us what you most want to experience and what you would be happy to leave out; a manageable itinerary is usually more enjoyable than a long checklist.
Frequently asked questions
Can we start at Dublin Airport?
Yes, by agreement. A separate transfer can be arranged, or the first day can be redesigned around the airport collection. A Dublin arrival should not be assumed to include the complete Belfast day described above.
Do you book the hotels?
Guest accommodation is separate. Agree the itinerary and overnight base with us before making hotel reservations.
