Well planned and paced - The pickup and drop-off location is very convenient, which is on the west side of the city hall. Stuart, our bus driver, guide, comedian, and historian, showed us an excellent time. Even though it was an almost full bus, it was comfortable. We had sufficient time to roam around Carrickfergus Castle, a pitstop to snap some pictures of the coastline at Portaneevy, lunch in a restaurant at the Dark Hedges (vegetarian options available - you can either have lunch at the restaurant or a cafe), and Dunluce Castle. You can either check out the trees first and then have lunch, or have lunch first and then check out the trees. I'd recommend paying £4.50 to visit Carrickfergus Castle so you can check out the various rooms inside. Since Dunluce Castle is a ruin, you may or may not want to pay. However, you can snap decent pictures from the outside. What a great way to see the coastline too.

Silly Sausage - Stuart was an incredible and witty tour guide. He knew exactly how to keep the tour interesting through humor, historical facts, and cool Irish lore! I absolutely recommend this tour, for the sights are out of this world.

Troy is the best - Troy the driver and tour guide made this awesome! Great stories and information throughout plus fun banter with those of us on tour. Also perfect suggestions on other things to do/where to go. Even though is was somewhat rainy with a wind chill of 29 the scenery was incredible. And back to Troy: anybody that can navigate a bus around those curves has my utmost respect!!

Incredible day out! - A great trip to see not just the Causeway but an amazing coach roadtrip round the beautiful coastline and countryside The journey took us up the coast line on amazing sea bordering roads, through the Antrim hills and then to the wild North Atlantic coast. It’s such a beautiful drive The stops were two castles (admission isn’t included in the ticket but it’s only £4 or £6.) The first stop at Carrickfergus is worth just walking around the dock, the lunch spot is at a good pub/buffet and for £20 you get a good pub lunch and drink, Dunluce Castle is worth the £4 entry as the views from the cliffs are insane. The Causeway was of course the highlight with plenty of time to explore it. If you’re easy on your feet the walk to the causeway is around 15-20 mins. There is a shuttle bus for £1 if you’re less easy. It’s all free to get to the causeway and the National Trust museum is a rip off at £17. The Causeway was an amazing site and we had a great time. Timings wise we left at 845 (get to the pick up point at 830; don’t keep anyone waiting) and we got back for around half 5 The highlight of the trip was Troy our tour guide, he was a funny and incredibly knowledgeable man about Northern Ireland and its history and provided constant commentary on the trip with a good helping of jokes along the way Would definitely recommend this trip if you’re looking to get to the causeway and have a day free to explore!

What a day! - What a fantastic day out - so much packed in! There's a stop at beautiful Carrickfergus (£4.50 discounted ticket, if you want to visit the castle), the stunning Antrim coast and countryside, the dramatically Hedges, the tragically lovely Dunluce Castle (£4.50 discounted entry if you wish to go in) and the amazing Giant's Causeway. Our driver, Dave, entertained, informed and looked after us. He noticed each passenger and went out of his way to ensure our comfort. His customer service was second to none. We had a wonderful day- great value for money!

Missed the bus despite being there early, - The organisers need to be clearer about the pickup point & time & specify it the day before rather than on the morning of. More details such as the colour of the bus, location point such as names of shops, hotel, etc, would help.
