Lack of Instructions and Missing Booking
Katherine H,May 27, 2026
- Review from Viator
1.00I booked this excursion through Viator, but unfortunately I never received any instructions from the tour operator. The only information available in the booking was a general guideline saying that cruise passengers arriving before 8:00 AM would depart at 8:30 AM. When we arrived at the port, there were several companies contracted by Viator, but none of them had my booking on their list. It was confusing and frustrating to be standing there with no clear direction and no representative who recognized our reservation. The only positive part of the experience was that one of the drivers/guides — who was not even assigned to us — was incredibly kind and allowed us to join his group so we wouldn’t be left behind. His kindness saved the day, but this should not have been necessary. Overall, the lack of communication and missing booking information made this a stressful experience. I hope Viator and the local operator improve their coordination and provide clear instructions to avoid this happening to other travelers.

5.00Our tour guide, Louie, was incredible, extremely knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend this tour if you’re on a cruise. We were picked up from the port on time and dropped back off with plenty of time to spare. I can’t say enough good things about this tour!

5.00Excellent trip, one of the best excursions I’ve ever taken. Troy went out of his way to show us everything possible in time allotted. He was very knowledgeable and fun. We had a beautiful tour of the coastline on the way back, far better than what’s offered as part of ship’s tour. Highly recommend.
Great overview of Northern Ireland & Belfast

5.00Great day with pick up right near our cruise ship. Plenty of time at Giant's Causeway and enjoyable ride through the beautiful coast with ample stops for viewing & rest. Lovely lunch at Harry's. Short tour through Belfast. Our guide Lisa and driver Ciarin were very good. Would have liked a little more time to view Belfast but Lisa and Ciarin wanted to make sure we made it back to our ship. That was very reassuring.
Great value, direct from ship
