Shedd Aquarium + Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago

All aboard for Westeros! We start the day by travelling along the  Causeway Coastal Route through beautiful coastal towns, including Ballycastle, which Game of Thrones fans will know as home to the actors who play Lady Catelyn Stark and Varys! Main stops include: Cushendun -  where we visit the Cave which featured Melisandre giving birth to the shadow assassin! Ballintoy Harbour is the next port of call, where Theon Greyjoy cames back to Pyke Harbour.  This is so recognisable there has even been a plaque erected! Giant’s Causeway – you can’t come this far without visiting this UNESCO World Heritage Sie Carrick-a-Rede Ropebridge - you can't be so close and not fit in a visit to the Ropebridge - but please don't do a Balon Greyjoy! Larrybane - where Renly swears to Lady Stark that he will avenge Ned's death, but meets his end at the hands of the shadow assassin conjured up in those caves you visited in Cushendun. The Dark Hedges – Possibly the most recognisable of the locations where Arya Stark makes her escape down The Kings Road. There is a lot of walking on what are sometimes uneven surfaces during this tour, and it therefore requires moderate fitness levels.  Please come dressed appropriately for not only the season, but also for the activity. Seats on our coach tours are limited, so Book Now to reserve your spot.
