We had been in the Republic of Ireland before, but wanted to experience northern Ireland. Many in our group did not realize they are two different countries so it was good for them to learn. Also, many did not really understand Ireland's history known as the "Troubles" and so that was good for people to understand and see the key locations. We could have stayed at the Giant's Causeway all day. It's massive, epic and has hiking trails we didn't have time to climb. The stops in Belfast, Derry and Galway were short, but provided a broader perspective.

It was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. The bus was comfortable. The driver/guide was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. I liked every stop. My expectations were surpassed at each site we went to. Thanks for a good experience!

First 2 days and driver/guide (Freddy) were very good. Accommodations were fine. 3rd day was not so good. We spent virtually all day on the coach and had less than 3 hours in Galway.

Our tour guide could not have been more wonderful! Took us to many sites that were not even listed on the program and made special efforts to accommodate me traveling with small children. I wouldn't expect such care on a budget tour but I was pleasantly surprised.

Freddie the guide was wonderful, but he had to drive and be our guide! We had 55 people, so it was crowded and pretty random seating. I think this tour should be recommended for people aged 18-30 because the focus was on hostels and B and Bs, and meeting for pub meals. Would not suggest it for older adults as there were lots of disadvantages.

This tour was amazing. Our driver/guide Freddie from Paddywagon tours was awesome and made the journey enjoyable. The Belfast and Derry days were eye-opening and educational. Both are beautiful cities despite their troubled pasts. The Black Taxi tour in Belfast is a must. The Black Taxi tour driver was very knowledgeable and so kind in answering all of our questions in full. A very special thank you to Rory our walking tour guide in Derry who explained some very difficult and complicated history to us in such a fair and honest manner. The accommodations in both cities were decent and there was ample of time to explore and we found good places to eat. The visits to the Carrick-a-rede rope bridge and the Giants Causeway were breathtaking. Also Galway city was just lovely. In hindsight, I wish I had booked a 6 day tour instead of a 3 day tour!!!

One of my highlights for Ireland. Thoroughly enjoyed this tour, our guide Leigh was just awesome and very informative. He kept us all amused with his wit and local knowledge. He really made the experience just that much more fun. Loved this tour and would highly recommend this to anyone. One of the best tours I had in my travels.
