Book it you won’t regret it! - I had a lovely day, it was my first experience of doing anything like this solo and Paul made everyone feel welcome. He was a brilliant driver, knowledgeable and funny. I loved the stories and we even got a song!
The Giants Causeway was amazing, a must see. I took the red route there and the blue route back. I was wearing trainers and would have definitely been better off in walking boots.
We were given a perfect amount of time at all stops along the route. Thanks Paul for a great day.

Fabulous trip - When we arrived at the pickup point we were asked for our name. However, we were not on the drivers list. I showed him our E-tickers. He was very apologetic and we chose our seats which were very comfortable and spacious. From start to finish our driver, Stephen, was very polite and extremely knowledgeable. The whole day was an absolutely fabulous experience.

Worth it for the drive alone! But wait, there’s more! - The small bus excursion with Paul our driver and tour guide was easily the most beautiful road trip I have taken in my life. I was very impressed with Paul’s abilities to navigate the winding turns of the countryside while sharing insightful historical stories. His kindness and sense of humor added to it all. I’m a tour guide myself and was very impressed. I would have a hard time doing what he did. We had plenty of time at all of the sites in the mini bus was very comfortable. It was easily one of the best tours I’ve ever been on in my life. Highly recommended!

Paul was wonderful and... - Paul was wonderful and had a lot of fun facts throughout the drive. It was only 4 total people (32 total seats on the spacious bus) on the tour on a Friday and we got super lucky with the weather. There’s no stop for lunch, so recommend buying it beforehand!

A brilliant tour. Don't miss! - A fantastic experience - can't recommend this tour enough! The perfect mixture of a busy itinerary, taken at a comfortable pace. The guide was fantastic - lots of added value in his knowledge of the area - and each stop was breathtakingly beautiful. Small group, comfortable coach, easy check in, ran to time. This was the highlight of my visit to Northern Ireland.

North Coast Day Tour 2026 - Our family of 4 adults enjoyed this day trip very much. Our guide Stephen was interesting, friendly, knowledgeable, thoughtful -- just right!
Wear the right shoes for uneven, possibly wet up- and down-hill walking, take layers of clothes so you stay warm and dry. And stop in the pub after walking on the Giants Causeway for an excellent soup and tea or pint etc -- wonderful ambience and great service.
The tour was a good balance of driving, short stops in a small town or two, stories about older history plus plenty about current-day social, education, economic, and tourism developments. We had a wonderful experience, even with wind and prickly rain during our Giants Causeway walk. It made the pub there all the more inviting. The Dark Hedges walk is fine, it's a nice walk along a tree-lined roadway complete with grazing sheep and birds to see and hear, even if Game of Thrones is not your main interest.
Thank you for a fine outing, Stephen!!

A great day out - We really enjoyed our tour with Odyssey Tours. There were only 4 of us on the coach with our great driver and guide, Stephen. Stephen is very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions and everything ran to schedule. Would highly recommend this tour

Very disappointed. - If something goes wrong (like the bus leaves without you) don't expect any professional customer service. Office staff were condescending, antagonistic and extremely rude. Jim will not be happy to help and will make it as difficult as possible to achieve an amicable solution. Absolutely disgusting approach and completely un-necessary.
Make sure you make yourself known to the bus driver apparently it is not their job to get off the bus find you despite the pick up point being used for several different trips. We were approached by different tour guides just sadly not ours who left without us after standing there for 25 minutes prior to departure time.
Once on the trip (the following day and only being "allowed" to join the trip if when took full responsibility and acknowledged that it was entirely our fault we were not on the bus) the tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable and it was a good day out. Just a shame experience was ruined by such an belligerent admin guy.

Poor service - Our flight was cancelled, and we contacted the provider as soon as we realised there was no option of making the tour. They were unable to help us in cancelling and instead suggested that our insurance should cover it so that they didn't have to.
