Everything needed to get the experience and Rory the driver also gave us tips which were very useful. A must visit
Gary was excellent! He shared a lot of information to and from the Causeway. He also had a great playlist for us to listen to. This was an easy and inexpensive excursion. Great for solo travelers or groups. I would advise doing the morning tour if you want to avoid the crowds.
This was amazing and so informative our guide was brilliant . This is so interesting and our taxi was extremely comfortable and clean
Our guide was for the 8 AM tour and he was awesome. Make sure everybody was informed and punctual and had a good time. He’s a great reflection on the Paddy wagon company. For all I know he owns it.
Gary, our driver was really good explained things to us and gave a running commentary about aspects of Northern Irish life. Loved the stop on the way for photo's and enjoyed the Giants Causeway
Half day tour to the Giants Causeway, perfect if you can't dedicate a full day out. Back by one, but please follow the time allowance by your guide. Very beautiful natural landscape of northern Ireland. Rory was a great guide, enjoyed the tour very much.
Great half day tour to the Giants Causeway. Gary our driver provided excellent commentary throughout the journey. Would highly recommend the tour
The half day tour starts early enough to get to the causeway before crowds, however, there was not enough time there to do more than walk down take a couple of photos and walk back so we felt rushed and there was no time to explore the longer walks. The driver told us nothing about the Giant's Causeway at all, and with three hours overall on the bus there was certainly time to do this.
Rory was.a fantastic tour guide. Filled our travels to and from the Giant's Causeway with laughs, craic. stories, anecdotes and interesting points of note. Fabulous trip to see a great site.
Very informative, enjoyable and frequently funny tour ride led by our guide Gary. Gary provided a great mix of Irish culture including music, mythology and history. A wonderful time!
Great wee half day trip, The Paddy Wagon was great value for money. Driver Gary had great craic, good information and advice on places to go.
Thoroughly good tour to see lots of the area outside the city. Good journey to the Causeway and informative along the way.
Good to see the Causeway before the crowds arrived. Walked down and bus back up for £1.
Toilets next to the hotel as we couldn’t find any inside and we went in for a drink but the staff were slow and didn’t seem interested so we left.
Eduardo was excellent. He handled our tire blow out so calmly and professionally, it was a wonderful excursion. But due to the tire blow out we were delayed almost two hours. We were not able to stop for lunch and I bought a ticket for The Titanic Museum but because we were so hate getting back I didn’t get to use the ticket. Very disappointing plus I was out the money for the ticket.
Perfect 4.5hr tour with sufficient time at each stop. The coach was waiting for us well ahead of time and kept to schedule throughout. Gary the driver was fantastic and provided excellent knowledgeable commentary. We all thoroughly enjoyed the tour and learned a great deal about the fabulous Antrim coast and Ireland in general. Highly recommended.
All was fine. Perfect timing. Fun stories. Super cool and organized. If u want to see giants causeway and don’t spend time in smth else - best choice
The Giants Causeway was just stunning. This half day tour gives you just enough time to take in the countryside. Gary the driver was extremely knowledgeable and gave an in-depth history perspective. Highly recommended.
Gary was very informative and fun. We unfortunately had a very foggy day, but the Gary made sure to give great information on the points of interest
Half Day trip is great! If you are in Belfast for a week or so, consider the Full Day trip. Then you have time for lunch and to see other sights.
We really enjoyed this 5 hour tour it was about long enough and the bus driver told us lots of useful information about Belfast and the surrounding areas but didn’t tell us a lot about the actual causeway and we didn’t have a separate guide but it was still really good long enough to enjoy the giants causeway
We had a great time, our driver/tour guide was great. Lots of cool and interesting stories and facts. Made the journey enjoyable
Gary the driver and tour guide was fantastic. Loved his stories, music and the craic! Lots of interesting information about the history of Ireland and great advice on places to visit while in Belfast. Good stop off on the way and just the right amount of time to explore the causeway.
Rory was an excellent guide, driver, and raconteur! He was keen to point out sites of interest along the way and gave us clear tips as to how to make the most of our visit. Highly recommend!
Informative, funny and helpful guided tour. Lucky with the weather. 3.5 hours was perfect length for the trip. Do the early morning trip to avoid the queues
It is a nice way to get out and see the Causeway. We didnt want to do a full day as we only had a couple days in Belfast. It was a perfect half day. The bus is fantastic and comfortable. The tour guide gave a nice talk on a few places we passed and some history. Nice irish music to finish our trip. Very punctual!
Definitely pick the morning trip as it was quieter than the afternoon excursions. Listen to the guide as he has lots of information and knowledge to pass on
Despite the windy and rainy weather at the Giant's Causeway, we had a fantastic experience. Our tour guide, Shane, was friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the trip. His enthusiasm and sense of humor made the day both enjoyable and memorable. If you're looking for a great tour guide, Shane is the person to ask for!
It was worth an experience visiting the Cauaseway. We left earlier from our scheduled time and had enough time to explore the area. Our driver Gary was very knowledgeable, courteous and even knows some history and poetry. Pleasant drive with only 16 of us in the bus. We left at 7:20 instead of the scheduled time which is 8AM once all the guests came on time.
Excellent commentary from Kieran - enjoyed the experience - there was fog, unfortunately so the Giant’s Causeway view was poor
This was such a nice way to see the iconic Giant’s Causeway without it taking your entire day. Kieron was a great guide and driver, keeping us informed and entertained on the drive. He had a good mix of stories, information, humor, and time to just observe the beautiful scenery. There was just enough time to hike out the top of the cliffs and then back down near the causeway at a brisk pace. We found it perfect and it left us with the rest of the day to enjoy Belfast.
This was a wonderful experience. The paddy wagon was very visible at the pickup spot, clean and comfortable inside. The journey had a lot of sights and natural beauty, and the driver/ host did a great job at letting us know what to look out for and telling some jokes on the way. The causeway was beautiful and more accessible than I thought, considering it's wild terrain. The value for money on this excursion was terrific!
