Explore St Patrick’s country, the Mourne Mountains and Strangford Lough on a relaxed small-group tour —scenic views, hidden gems, and fewer crowds. Direct Belfast hotel/Cruise Port pickup included.
Escape the crowds and discover the beauty of Northern Ireland’s south-east on this relaxed small-group tour from Belfast.
Begin your journey with direct pickup from your Belfast hotel or accommodation before exploring the scenic landscapes, rich heritage and hidden beauty of Northern Ireland’s stunning south-east coast.
Your journey starts with a photo stop at Stormont Estate, home to Northern Ireland’s impressive Parliament Buildings, set within beautiful parkland.
Continue to Scrabo Tower, where you’ll enjoy some of the best panoramic views in Ireland, overlooking Strangford Lough and the surrounding countryside.
Travel along the shores of Strangford Lough, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, before boarding the scenic ferry from Portaferry to Strangford—one of Ireland’s most charming and picturesque crossings.
Arriving in Downpatrick, visit Down Cathedral, believed to be the final resting place of St Patrick, Ireland’s patron saint, the heart of Ireland’s early Christian heritage.
From here, journey to the seaside town of Newcastle, where the spectacular Mourne Mountains sweep down to the sea. Enjoy time to relax, take in the scenery, and grab lunch in one of the town’s cafés or restaurants.
In the afternoon, explore Tollymore Forest Park, a local hidden gem, known for its ancient woodlands, stepping stones, and as a filming location for Game of Thrones.
With a smaller group size and a carefully planned route, this tour offers a more relaxed, scenic, and personal way to experience some of Northern Ireland’s most beautiful and lesser-visited locations.
