A must do - We did the extra leg room bus which was worth it. Our driver made sure we were ahead of the big buses so we could beat the crowds. The scenery was beautiful, and the giant's causeway was definitely worth the visit. We had plenty of time to visit a local pub while there also.

Excellent value and comfort - Steve our driver and guide gave us a comfortable and informative experience. Lots of useful information in a smaller coach with plenty of legroom. I’d say excellent value for money. Already recommended Odyssey to some other tourists.

Great Northern Ireland Tour - Great experience, tour guide was great, all pickup details were easy to follow and everything was on schedule. Great tour! Included a little of everything from castles to Giants Causeway and some of the most beautiful scenery you will ever see along the Antrim Coast. Also a great lunch stop at the Lookout Restaurant overlooking the coast. Also ended tour with drive through Belfast.

The best tour ever - We could not have asked for a better tour guide, than Steven! His knowledge and delivery of that knowledge made this one of the best tours we've ever taken.
And his driving was great along many narrow roads. This tour was way better than the ones offered by the cruise ships and was much cheaper. There was some rain a long our tour as expected but Steven's humor and knowledge more than made up for that. Lastly, I would have given more stars on this review if it had been an option. Thank you Steven!!!!!!!

Shore Excursion from Our Ship: Unforgettable Belfast Experience at Giants Causeway! - We had an amazing short excursion in Belfast, with the highlight being our visit to the Giants Causeway. The site was absolutely breathtaking, and we had ample time to explore and take in the incredible views. Our lunch in Ballycastle at the lookout was delightful, offering both delicious food and stunning scenery. Our driver, Stephen, truly enhanced the experience with his insightful commentary on Belfast’s history and culture. He ensured we were well-informed and got us back to our ship with plenty of time to spare. We highly recommend this excursion—it’s a must-do!

Horrible operator but good tour - The tour and the guide were very good but the communication from the operator was terrible and we wasted 30 min and 22 GBP driving around in a taxi because of their poor communication to find the bus! No apologies - just a rude response from them!! Very disappointed!
