Highly recommend this tour
This was a brilliant experience! This was my first time going on one of these tours and after this one I would definitely go on one again! Gary kept us entertained from start to finish. He told us lots of facts about Ireland and played Irish music. I have come away with a much better understanding of the history of Ireland too. This tour is the perfect amount of time if you want to experience some of the sites. The Giants Causeway is brilliant and such a memorable experience. I would highly recommend this tour!

A great day out
It is a long day with a number of stops along the way. An early start, we were at the pickup point at 8.15am, and returned to the city centre circa 6.15pm. However, you do get to see a number of Games of Thrones sites, and the Giant Causeway will not disappoint. Plenty of time to visit each location not rushed, with plenty of facilities at each stop.
The coach driver, made our day he was very informative and very funny.

Excellent value out of this tour!!
Excellent tour. We stopped at every planned stop even if it rained! I especially appreciated that each stop was timed short enough so we didn’t get bored at any one place. Our driver and guide did an excellent job and was quite the story teller and very gracious with everyone even though he did two jobs in one!!

Well Organized Tour. Smooth Patrick Driving.
The driver (Patrick) did an amazing job. Smooth driving. Lots of info & a good sense of humour. Please give him a raise. Thank you. Glad I went on this tour. Also, I travelled solo. There were 4 other dudes doing this so I was a bit relieved that I wasn’t the only one.

The Best Of Northern Ireland
Great job today from Stephen, our driver and tour guide, who imparted lots of knowledge along the way and took us to Giants Causeway (a gem), Bushmills Distillery, The Dark Hedges from Game Of Thrones, and the Carrick-A-Rede Bridge overlook along with several other vistas that'll make you smile while shaking your head over what you're seeing. A great way to get a good look at this part of NI.

Paul was wonderful and...
Paul was wonderful and had a lot of fun facts throughout the drive. It was only 4 total people (32 total seats on the spacious bus) on the tour on a Friday and we got super lucky with the weather. There’s no stop for lunch, so recommend buying it beforehand!

amazing sights, even in rainy february
my brother and i took this tour from belfast, so we were picked up around 9:30 AM and dropped off in the city centre at the end around 3:30 PM.
the ride from belfast to dunluce castle is about an hour and some change. some of the drive was a little treacherous - but our driver, fred, was great at maneuvering the bus around. after the castle was the giants causeway which has a "hike" over a hill (they call it the red trail but i found it still fairly easy) and then you can take the even easier blue trail back to the drop-off. before going back to belfast, we got to see the dark hedges which were a little barren due to it being so cold, but i still felt that it was worth seeing. throughout the day, our tour guide, quiggs, gave us a lot of informative history on the complicated relationship between ireland and the UK. he is quite funny and also speaks fluent irish which was so neat!
despite it being february and probably a lower time for tourism around here, the bus was still quite full. overall, we had a really great time! fairly priced and fun. ill recommend this tour to anyone else i know who comes to dublin or belfast (you can book one that takes you to and from dublin as well).

Brilliant excursion
This excursion was absolutely brilliant! Our driver, Gary, picked us up from outside the Europa Hotel and during the journey to the Giant’s Causeway, he gave us loads of fascinating information about Ireland. We went past the Dark Hedges (made famous by GoT) and through the town of Bushmills (famous for the whiskey).
The causeway itself is incredible, and I’m so pleased we got to see it.
Gary is such a knowledgeable person, and made the hour or so’s journey pass much quicker with the information he gave us and the music he shared.
I would highly recommend this excursion, and especially our driver. We left and returned promptly and had time for a pint at The Nook before we left the Giant’s Causeway.
Thanks so much for a great afternoon!

Great Day Out with Odyssey Tours!!
This tour by Odyssey provided a very good option for visiting The Giants Causeway among other included places. The extra legroom along with smaller numbers was a boon. Stephen guide and driver was both informative and entertaining. His local knowledge proved
advantageous concerning arrival times at the various locations.

The trip from Belfast to...
The trip from Belfast to the Giant's Causeway took us through beautiful Countryside scenery. Our tour guide (Amanda) was very informative and enjoyable. Our driver (Steve) got us where we needed to be safely and was very friendly. We really enjoyed our day.
