Don't miss this wonderful excursion!

The biggest Viator group I've ever been with but it wasn't a problem. It was 75% cheaper than the ship's tour and we saw more. Amanda was a fantastic guide who was passionate about her job and very knowledgeable and informative. She took time to come round and get to know each of us individually. She had a great sense of humour. We arrived at the Giant's Causeway before the ship's excursions so it was quieter. It was lovely driving through the Glens of Antrim which was also included. Stopped at a very nice restaurant for lunch (not included) and had plenty of time. Would recommend 100%

Colin made trip Spectacular!

The scenery was absolutely spectacular. Our driver COLIN, was Excellent, and very very entertaining as well as a knowledgeable guide to this coast of Northern Ireland. The Giant’s Causeway is the unquestionably spectacular abd the highlight of the highlight of the tour, but Colin's description of the origins of the Causeway, both legendary or scientific made it very meaningful to my group of Americans. Good views along the Antrim Coast we had frequent stops to take in the majestic scenery Dark Hedges and other GOT locations. Well-organized stops and timing. Waving at his mother along the way was great. Very good value for

Our guide AND driver...

Our guide AND driver Frank was a one man show and did a phenomenal job of keeping us on time, driving us all around the north safely and efficiently, all the while thoroughly explaining the history and background of everything we saw. It also helped he was naturally funny, very helpful and honest with his pointers to ensure we made the most of our time. The tour was nicely broken up with a number of stops along the way so there was never a dull moment. There were also plenty of bathroom breaks and we spent more time off the bus than inside with how well organized the tour was. Highly highly recommend.

Titanic Museum a Total Success!

We had only 2 1/2 hrs before we had to leave to catch a cruise. We managed to see most of what we really wanted to see. If we ever were able to get back here to visit, we would love to read more of the articles. I was particularly interested in reading more about the inquiry that was done regarding the actual sinking and experiences of passengers who testified before an inquiry board. What I did have time to read from the passengers and survivors was fascinating and sad. Well done exhibit! The work that went into it all was amazing.

Beautiful Sights, Great Tour

We had a fantastic experience on this tour! Stuart was an amazing guide who had a vast depth of knowledge and could converse on any topic. All the places we visited were lovely and we enjoyed every single one. Stuart gave us a great overview of the history and points of interest of all the places we visited and drove through. The bus was comfortable, clean, and everything about the trip was top notch!

Highly recommend!

It was true to the description. It was in fact a small bus and our tour had 20 people, although it could have taken a few more. It was very comfortable on the bus. The tour guide was great, knowledgeable and had a good balance of info and relax time. Loved the 1.5 hrs at Giants Causeway. It allowed enough time to do either walk. The lunch was fantastic. I was thinking the food wouldn’t be great because the view was so nice, but it was. We skipped the Belfest drive around and honestly I preferred that after seeing so many things. All around great tour.

No Need to Pay Extra

Each destination we visited was open to the public. If you wanted to enter the “visitor center” an additional entrance fee is needed. All sights we visited had information markers if we wanted to know more about the location. We did not pay extra to enter the “museum “ or gift shop.

Fantastic Experience! Beautiful scenery and good Comedy.

Meeting early in the morning after a concert was a bit of a slog but the fantastic attitude and sense of humour of our tour guide had us perked up and attentive for the entire bus journey. They took the time to explain key historical moments , interspersed with humour and light-hearted chitchat. The Antrim coastline is breathtakingly beautiful and the stops along the way were all phenomenal. We were given ample time at (most) stops to explore and take in the sights. Food at the designated dinner spot at the black hedges hotel was quite expensive, running £17 for a buffet plate, as such id recommend taking your own lunch or getting something from one of the spots along the trip that does things a bit cheaper. The giants causeway was more than worth the trip and exceeds it's reputation for beauty, I do wish that more time was possible there but that would be logistically difficult.

This was such a wonderful holidays experience for us. The guide and the driver was awesome. He explained everything very well to us. He was humble polite and very supportive. He is a gem. The service was prompt and worth the money. I would recommend them to everyone. I will choose them next time too. Thank you for the service.
