Protesters disrupted our tour.

We were unable to complete the HOHO route due to a pro-Palestinian protest and road closures. I would recommend this tour to friends, as the small portion that we did was enjoyable.

Great Day Out

Giants Causeway Tour was brilliant. Dave our driver was informative and funny and definitely made the trip extra enjoyable. We booked as part of the city sightseeing hop on hop off and it is excellent value for money. Dave made sure we had enough time to explore the places we visited. We are so glad we made the decision to go.

It was Belfast marathon...

It was Belfast marathon day. I was traveling after 1 PM. I was trying to get to the college conservatory, but ended up looping by the Titanic area twice and sitting on busses going nowhere for a bit of time. I tried to ride a bus near my hotel where there was a scheduled stop, and was unsuccessful getting near there on the second trip. I finally gave up and walked from the city center back to the hotel. During a normal day, I’m sure it would have been fine. A revised schedule for potential and actual riders sure would have been helpful. It was a waste of money for the 2 day pass for me.
