Traveler reviews
Go for the Causeway and Discover More
We chose this excursion because we’ve previously been to Belfast. The guide/driver, Stephen, was very informative and skilled. The Giants Causeway was amazing but be prepared for huge numbers of ill-mannered tourists who don’t understand a queue and instead push and shove to get on the return shuttle from the pickup point and the end of the tour. Our tour did not include Cushendall or the Glens of Antrim. I believe this was due to the ship docking late but this wasn’t explained on the tour. We appreciated the guide’s Game of Thrones knowledge as we are big fans and his personal perspective living in the area was insightful. The brief swing through Belfast was a great way to end the tour but seeing Dunluce Castle was my favorite part of tour.
Tour was excellent!
We went on a small bus tour with Patrick in May. He was amazing and very informative! He says he does it because he loves it and it shows. Glad we did the smaller bus since we didn’t have to wait for other people. It was our favourite shore excursion. Everything was interesting and the lunch stop was great. Really liked the Giant Causeway, that would worth it on its own.
Good experience
Enjoyed the sights very much. Absolutely beautiful landscape. Our guide was ok. He knew how to drive but his commentary wasn’t particularly authoritative or well presented. Nevertheless, we are glad we did the tour.
That you are not going on...
That you are not going on the rope bridge. That was the reason I choose this tour. Soo dissapointing.
worst investment
horrible, directions given to use on tour operator website was wrong and caused use to miss tour. trying to contact tour operator no one would answer phone. still have not received any contact or reimbursement from this operator. do at own risk but i would not do it again
