This was a long day. Our...
This was a long day. Our guide, whose name I think was Robert, was absolutely amazing and full of information. Despite the tour starting at 8:30am we arrived at 8am and found the bus totally full so couldn’t sit together. Which isn’t a huge deal we were just surprised that many people arrived early! I actually ended up with a really nice seat view. The first couple stops are relatively small and largely for bathroom breaks, but both locations were those I would never have seen otherwise. The drive up the Antrim Coast was spectacular. That was one of the most gorgeous drives I’ve ever been on. Lunch was well organized. Having done three day trips by now I can definitely say this was the most well organized lunch stop. The main event was of course Giant’s Causeway and it was a beautiful day for it. Our guide was good to mention there was a shuttle bus we could take back up to the top. Our remaining stops were mostly short but I loved the visit to Bushmills Distillery. We had enough time for a quick whiskey flight which was really fun. We got back to Belfast right on time. And you can’t beat this tour on price.

Great coach tour from a Tourist Trap skeptic
As a seasoned Ireland visitor I try to avoid the tourist stuff, so I was a bit hesitant to join the coach tour. However, it proved to be a great experience. We lucked out with great weather and the coastline drive was scenic and enjoyable. Our guide, Stuart, had entertaining tidbits for the whole trip so the time passed quickly. Enjoyed both castles (Carricfergus and Dunluce, £4.50 entry to both), although a few more minutes at Dunluce would've been nice. Dark Hedges were fine. A bit underwhelming, IMO, but still worth checking out. The Giant's Causeway was amazing. Had a solid 2 hours there and saw everything I needed to see, plus grabbed a pint at The Nook to cap off the day. It's a long day, but you cover a lot of ground and have quite a bit of freedom when you're not on the bus. If you've never done the Causeway before, and don't have a local guide, I'd very much recommend this tour.

A Great Day Out with Spectacular Scenery
The more spacious coach and smaller group were great! Our guide Paul was quite funny. Be prepared for walking with comfortable shoes and wind and rain-proof gear. The stops were just the right length, and even the views put the windows travelling along were spectacular. Make sure to bring lunch or snacks for the bus as there’s not much time to grab something to eat!

I can highly recommend...
I can highly recommend this tour. We did the half day , left Belfast at 8, and were back by 12.30 . The driver, Gary gave us lots of interesting information. The giants causeway is fantastic we had about an hour and a half which was plenty of time to see it and to have coffee in the hotel . Good value for money .

Odyssey Adventures - Amanda and Randall
Randall and Amanda with Odyssey Adventures were absolutely fantastic! Amanda was so sweet and kind to us. She was an incredible host. The stops were iconic and we absolutely loved driving through the Glens listening to classic Irish music. Thanks from the Young American Honeymooners.

Fantastic Titanic museum
Allow a lot of time as the history of Belfast and the magnitude of the construction of the Titanic and then the devastating loss of the ship on it's maiden voyage and the loss of life from a combination of events that took place was quite an emotional experience to take in. A very impressive museum that was well developed.

Fun and engaging tour!
The pick up started a little shaky as I was given the wrong bus number with the pick up instructions so I had to walk around to the various busses to figure out which one we were on. Once that was resolved, it was all up from there. The bus was very comfortable (a smaller Mercedes bus with extra leg room), the itinerary was great (we loved Giant's Causeway), the lunch spot we were taken to was fast and delicious....and best of all, our driver, Paul, was fantastic and made this one of the best tours we have been on. He was fun, engaging and even sang an Irish song to us. 10 out of 10 recommend a tour with Paul!

Yes x 100
This was such a great experience. Ray was amazing. The food at Fullerton was outstanding. If you’re not sure about the seafood chowder I promise you won’t regret it. All the stops were great. We had plenty of time to see what there was to see. Would highly recommend. Also, sit on the left side of the bus, I was jealous of the left side for sure.

So good I did it twice!
So good I went around the whole loop twice!
Some buses have the drivers doing the commentary (rather than a recording) and these ones are the best!
A special shout out for Don who does a special surprise. Really helped me to understand the whole conflict a little better.

Highly enjoyable day out with a well thought out itinerary and the comfort of a smaller mini coach , the experience was made even more memorable by the guidance from our driver Paul who educated and entertained us in equal measure!
