10 Days in Ireland: The Perfect Irish Road Trip Itinerary
"Causeway Coast – The most famous part of Northern Ireland these days is Giant's Causeway and the Causeway Coast, which are indeed amazing!. I recommend driving the route yourself and visiting Giant's Causeway at your own pace, OR you can take a Game of Thrones-themed tour from Belfast that will also include a stop at Giant's Causeway."

Top things to do in Northern Ireland
"This Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) centre offers spectacular views of a thriving seabird colony, where every summer thousands of puffins can be seen. It's located at Rathlin's upside-down west lighthouse (the lamp is at the building's base). Built into the cliff face, the lighthouse was a feat of engineering when it was completed in 1919. The lighthouse tower now contains exhibits on Rathlin's marine life and history."
