Excellent tour made even better by tour guide and driver Dave. Locations are stunning (even on a day like we had where the weather was horrific). Coach very comfortable. Food stop at Dark Hedges hotel wasn’t particularly good value for money so if doing again would probably take sandwiches. Overall would absolutely recommend.

We paid the top price £35 each for a luxury coach trip. The seat in front of us was broken with the effect for the full trip of the passenger in that seat leaning back with about a 12 inch gap between the seat and one of my friend’s face. Complained (nicely) to Stuart our guide to be told that he’d had trouble with the coach we were due to be on, so would adjust it with Dave the driver at the first stop. They didn’t, and neither did they apologise for the situation. Left us feeling very unheard and ignored and spoiled the day. Also did all he could to ensure that no one used the onboard toilet, I suppose so that cleaning wasn’t necessary?! Hardly the point of having this facility.

Great trip. Went with my ten year old daughter and we both enjoyed it. Hugh our driver was friendly, helpful, good natured and informative. Quite a lot of time in the coach vs time at some of the stops which might be a consideration for some but plenty of time at the main “feature” of the Giants Causeway. Worth noting there is an alternative option for lighter food at the dark hedges to the hotel buffet although this wasn’t flagged by the guide.

Our guide and driver, Troy, was outstanding. It’s a long day, but worth it. Thanks, Troy! From Canada.

We had a fantastic tour of the Giants Causeway and many other beautiful destinations on the journey too and from Belfast. Mark was a tour guide and driver and gave lighthearted and insightful commentary during the experience. Plenty of time at each location and lavatory/eating arrangements are all considered. Would highly recommend!

What a fantastic trip. Lisa and John were a fantastic double and Lisa’s knowledge off all the places we stopped was amazing. I learnt so much. Thanks for making it such a memorable trip.

Fabulous day and as a solo on the trip I was sat with other solo travellers all very friendly Driver was extremely informative & just about the right amount of time & each point of interest. With hindsight maybe it would be preferable to take your own packed lunch than eating at the hotel we stopped off at although it did the job

Overall, the tour was good. The tour bus driver was also the tour commentator. Mark did a great job keeping us informed and ensuring all the participants understood the expectations. He interjected humor throughout the drive. Two things to note: The Carrickfergus Castle was a bit disappointing. It is undergoing refurbishing in one area, and there were construction materials spread out everywhere. Also, there are a few areas that are listed on the printed guide that were not accessible even though they did not appear to be part of the refurbishing activities. The other disappointment was Dark Hedges….unfortunately, many tress have died and the avenue has lost its grand appeal. The Dark Hedges could be dropped from the tour to give more time at Dunluce Castle, which was an amazing historical site that we rushed through. Giants Causeway was amazing. We picked this tour operator because they provided the more time at the Giants Causeway than other operators. You will need the time so you can do both the Red Walk and the Blue Walk to taking in all the views. (We happily skipped the visitor center at the Giants Causeway thanks to the advice found in the tour description…so I cannot comment on the value of the visitor center)
