5.00Itinerary was as described. Enjoyed. Unlike other tours we have booked with Viator instead of a ‘ticket’ we were sent a voucher with instructions to pick up tickets at Sixt meet and greet at the terminal. This is a car rental agency. Knew nothing about the tour. No one to greet us at pier. We managed to wander over to some buses and found our tour(Allen tours). During our visit to the causeway there was an accident and first responders were called to the scene resulting in the suspension of shuttle service. We were left with several other passengers to climb up to meet our bus. I called the office and the person who answered said the buses could not wait. They had to get us back to the ship. This was at 2:30. Our ship was scheduled to leave at 7:30. We had no recourse but to climb (my husband uses a cane to walk and she was made aware of the situation). She was adamant about the bus not waiting for the passengers. When we boarded the bus the driver didn’t know about the situation ( I heard her speaking to him on the phone). He said he would have waited. Not happy with the way Allen tours handled the whole day from sending us to a car rental place to not making accommodations for its passengers. I have booked many tours with Viator and been pleased but yesterday was very upsetting.

4.00The Causeway is a definite bucket list must do. I was disappointed that we did not get our of the bus for the Murals. We were on the wrong side of the bus to take any photos. Our guide was super funny and gave us alot if history but was not great at giving directions once we got to a location. The tour was terrific. What we saw was amazing but there were some things that could be improved. Very easy to get to the tour from the ship
Extremely long walk....

5.00Extremely long walk. Great tour guide. Provided a lot of history and culture regarding past and present. We are not Game of Thrones fans so the hedges were meaningless to us. The walk through Bushmills was very good and the causeway was beautiful.
Great day in Belfast

5.00What a great way to get to see Belfast and the Giants Causeway. Our driver Ben was very knowledgeable and so funny. He made the day fly by so quickly. We did think it was a 6 hour tour but it was about an 8 hour tour. That wasn’t a problem as he made sure we were back to the boat in plenty of time.

5.00Shoutout to Jim and Lisa for making this trip so much fun! The Causeway was absolutely beautiful and it definitely lives up to its reputation being a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Disaster failed to turn up!

1.00Up early off the cruise ship there waiting at 830am as agreed and a No show called the tour office to be told tour cancelled. Absolutely spoilt what was supposed to be a great day out. Can't recommend and would not use again!
Neat tour

4.00Overall the tour was great, but they were very late getting to the cruise pier to pick us up and there was no communication. Thankfully a couple of folks on the tour called in and kept us updated. The tour was great though, navigated the Murals, saw Dunluce Castle ruins, visited Giant's Causeway (and advised correctly that you don't need to go to the Trust facility), and the Dark Hedges. They got us back to the ship by all-aboard time, which is what counts!
This is a Must Do!
