Great value! - Great tour! If you have the ability to, strongly recommend the red trail instead of the blue that most people take. This is a great way to get over to Giants Causeway and see a bunch of cool stops along the way.

Great Day Out with Wonderful Sites to See - We had a wonderful day. Our tour guide and driver was very caring to make sure we were able to stop and the great sites and told us about history and sites along the way. If you are a Game of Thrones enthusiast, you will also get a thill as this trip build in a few of the sites of filming. It was overall just a wonderful day trip and I would recommend anyone take this while staying in Belfast or even if you are there for just a day.

Brilliant day out - Came on this tour with our two kids 9 and 10. It's a long day but definitely worth it. We started at 8.30 and got back maybe 6.15. As soon as we started the driver started telling us all about the tour, and intresting facts and information about where we were and pointing out landmarks. He was very knowledgeable. The coast road is full of things to look at and it's very beautiful. Sit on the right for a sea view.
We stopped at a few castles and GOT locations and stopped at the pub for lunch before we got to the Giants Causeway. My husband had read some negative reviews of the pub food but what we had was very good. I had the chowder and it was full of big chunks of fish and very delicious. Also such a big bowl I couldn't finish it.
The Giants Causeway is of course the highlight and totally amazing. On a Friday in November there weren't to many people there but I could imagine in the summer it would get crazy busy.
National Trust members get into the visitor centre for free, otherwise it's quite expensive.
The Bushmills distillery stop was good although it's a shame you don't get to do the tour. They do have a nice bar and can get three tasting whiskeys starting at £10 and going up to £170! I tried the three for a tenner which were very nice and bought a bottle in the shop afterwards.
The dark hedges was great, on a November evening it was dusk so very atmospheric.
We then took the shorter way back to Belfast. As a tour it was very relaxing not having to drive and just sit back and relax.
It is a lot of time on the coach and the coastal road is windy so if you have smaller kids who would struggle to sit still and need to watch films beware that they might get travel sick on the windy roads.

Giants Causeway - The Giants causeway on a very foggy November day, however it was enjoyable. The tour guide Patrick was very interesting and gave us commentary and jokes all day! He was a great guide and was very knowledgeable on all the stops the tour takes. Its a great tour to go on to see the causeway. The causeway itself is very accessible with a choice of trails for all abilities. There is also a shuttle bus that can take you to the bottom and back to the top for a small fee. Well worth a trip!

It was worth it! - Patrick shared a lot of exciting information with us and drove us safely through all the rain depressions and curves to all the announced places. Along the way there were exciting stories to hear and sometimes, when Patrick had to concentrate on driving or wanted to give our ears some rest, also pleasant music.
At the exit locations, we were informed clearly and unambiguously in advance of all the circumstances (where do we go? Where are the toilets or small shops?), so no questions remained unanswered. Departure times were also clearly indicated, both verbally and visually on a small blackboard on exit.
The ride itself was overall well structured, entertaining and extremely informative.
I was a bit surprised that despite the season and the rainy weather, the bus was filled to the last place – which, however, speaks for the tour.
Unfortunately, the time of stay in the many beautiful places was sometimes a bit tight. In some places we could only hop out, take pictures and had to move on again. However, this was partly due to the available daylight: The last stop was the Dark Hedges and in November it gets dark at about 4:30pm, so we drove a bit “against time” so we could see this beautiful place – which was my personal highlight by the way.
It was definitely very worth it and I now know that I want to come here again, but then with a little more time and in a little better weather.
