3 of 5 Viator trips I...

3 of 5 Viator trips I booked they did not have my reservation- of course I had the proof tho. For the Giants Causeway/Belfast tour I booked a small group tour in a van. They put us on a busy bus. We got to the Causeway and had limited time there due being delayed at 2 tire shops to repair a tire that blew out on the highway. We didn't get any tour of Belfast or were we able to stroll & shop in Belfast. I asked for a partial refund but it was denied twice. Also had to do a lot of work to make the other tours happen. Directions were not always clear. Make sure to keep the emails & phone numbers accessible of who to contact if there is a problem with your tour. We needed them twice!

Great day in Ireland

We were picked up at the cruise ship port and Sean was our driver guide. Only 11 people on our tour on a small bus. The drive thru the country side was nice and the beaches spectacular. The Giant causeway was great to see. We took Sean’s advice to take the shuttle bus down there and he was right about that. More time spent at the shore vs walking with the crowds. A music festival was happening in Belfast. Some people opted to stay there for a couple of hours and some of us returned to the ship. All in all a great day with Paddywagon tours in Belfast, with Sean the retired policeman!

PADDYWAGON TOURS is an unreliable tour operator

Paddywagon Tours has canceled almost all of our booked excursions. The only excursion that was not canceled was catastrophically bad and deficient (was reviewed separately). This time, contrary to Tripadvisor's guidelines, it was canceled again only 12 hours before the tour. The tour was not profitable for the operator-as they let us know in writing. The operator has already done this 4 times during our cruise. Finding a replacement on such short notice is almost always hopeless. I can therefore only advise against booking any excursions or tours with PADDYWAGON TOURS.

Great tour

James did a fantastic job on the small group tour. As time aloud, we stopped at places rather than just doing a drive-by. Other travelers should know in advance that it’s cold down there. Wear long pants and a jacket.

Great tour! Giants Causeway great!

Great tour! Our guide, James, good! Smaller Van, like 15 people capacity, but only 7 of us on tour. James customized. Giants Causeway phenomenal! A must do.
