Comedy of errors
Brian_L
, Jun 2022
The Giants Causeway was beautiful. The tour operator and bus driver had not worked together before and they were not on the same page. They got lost and had to use a GPS to find our way……delayed about 15 minutes. We didn’t have enough time at the Causeway because it was so busy and only one shuttle on. We were not able to look around or eat before having to get back on bus. Two couples got caught waiting for a shuttle and were 15 minutes late again. We were unable to tour around Belfast because of the delays and then on the drive back to our cruise ship, the driver went to close his window and he opened the door on the bus! We were going down the freeway with the door to the coach open. A very frightening experience. Did not enjoy this tour.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Thank you for your review
We do not have any control over how many people visit the Giants Causeway or how many buses the National trust make available on the day.
Your ship did not dock at the advertised time and as a result passengers were over 1 hour 10 mins late getting off the ship.As we left the port at approx 12.40pm and over 1 hour behind schedule we were forced to make a few amendments to the tour itinerary, missing a lunch stop at around 4.00pm was the obvious stop to miss as everyone would be back to the ship for 6.00pm and most would have dinner reservations.
We are training staff and everyone has to start somewhere, your driver on the day has over 20 years experience and is new to the tour and was struggling with the variation from the standard route.The driver did hit the door button in error and quickly closed the door again. Our main priority was to make sure everyone arrived back at the port in good time for the ship sailing.
Thank you for your understanding.
Regards
We booked a smaller size...

We booked a smaller size coach but ended up on a full sized van. Explained it to the driver of the small van but he said I booked the larger bus. I did not. Outstanding driver and guide. None better. Great route. Enjoyed the day but disappointed in the gentleman in the green coat at the pier and the large bus. Great tour otherwise.
Response from Host , Jun 2022
Hello Danielle
Delighted to hear you enjoyed your day with us.
We did explain to you at the port and showed you on your paperwork that you had not booked the smaller group tour. It may well have been you intention to book the smaller group tour, we can forward you a copy of your booking confirmation.
Regards
Well worth the trip

I Would recommend this trip and company to all that want to visit the Giants Causeway. I would have given it five stars only I felt one and a quarter at the site was quite tight to walk there and back. We are in our 70s There is a bus payable, but we were concerned about the waiting time and would not make it back on time . Other than that one comment we had a great tour . Great guide and driver Thank you for a very enjoyable trip.
Excellent tour to Giants Causeway

At the port we, and several other people were looking for Viator tour operator till some one told us that Viator is only an agent and not a tour operator. Since Viator hired several operators it was very confusing and our final tour guide first did not know Viator tours. On our electronic ticket we found after phone number from our operator on the second page.
BELFAST EXCURSION - GIANT’s CAUSEWAY

All of the excursion was excellent. Jim was informative funny but also gave a little insight to the life in Belfast 2022. All of which had everyone’s attention. The Giants Causeway was a sight to behold - magnificent. The scenic drive there was breathtaking and the Guiness at a stop for lunch - delicious . A memorable day out.
Efficient Trip

Giants Causeway with long boring drive!

Nice to see Giants Causeway but rest of trip of little interest. Driver’s commentary lacking and jokes were long winded and inappropriate. However trip was significantly cheaper than cruise ship alternative.
Response from Host , Oct 2021
Thank you for taking the time to review your tour with us.
We did try to explain on the day it would not be possible to follow your itinerary as you were on a shared tour and we have to consider the others on the Tour.Unfortunately the Causeway is 1 hour 15 mins from Belfast and to see the Causeway we have to make that journey via Motorway to get to the Causeway before the other tour buses arrive.We have over the past 12 years explored every possible route to and from the Causeway and have decided going straight there from Belfast is the best route. We will have a word with the driver and tell him to keep his jokes short and sweet.
We would recommend next time you visit you book a private tour and then you can set your own itinerary.
Please contact us if your are interested in a private tour.
Thank you

Spectacular views, but not happy with the organization

We were waiting at the place indicated on the instructions, but found later out that the bus stopped on another place. By the time we got there, the bus had gone. We had to take a taxi to catch up with the bus, this costed us more than 100£. No excuses nor explanation from the guide, nor from
Viator.
Response from Host , Oct 2019
Thank you for your review
Sorry you were late for your tour as we waited 40 mins and could wait no longer as the other passengers were getting very annoyed at the delay.
Sorry you had to take a taxi to catch up with the tour as when you phoned the bus had already left 15 mins before you called and after waiting 40 mins at the dock it would not have been fair on the other passengers to ask the driver to go back and collect you.
Thank you

Wonderful day!

Our tour guide was Gail, and driver was Darren. We had a really great time with them. The scenery along the northern coast was more beautiful than I can describe. We walked down the hill to the Giant's Causeway and then took the shuttle back up the hill for a small charge. We walked the trail and then across the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge. Both were spectacular and should not be missed!!!
Gail added to the fun with her humor, stories of Irish lore, Vikings and history, all in her beautiful Irish lilting accent. We took her suggestion for lunch at the hotel in Ballycastle. The chowder is a different style than I've ever had, award winning, and it was delicious!
Darren was very pleasant and accommodating of all the guests, as well as a safe and good driver.
This excursion is highly recommended! Thank you so much Gail and Darren!

Giants Causeway/Carrick-a-Rede Bridge Tour - Excellent Value - 9/3/19
Susan_W
, Sep 2019
A WONDERFUL day for the 6 (60-something) of us. Beautiful countryside views. All agreed the Carrick-a-Rede was the highlight (maybe the best in our 12 day cruise). Be aware the walk down to the bridge is a long one and the trip back up was difficult with knee issues. Not for the "completely out of shape folks". The Causeway was gorgeous (again a long walk) and we had a lovely lunch/pint in the charming little restaurant. Later in the day had some free time and we found a cute little locals pub. James the young barkeep was very engaging! Would recommend this trip 100%

Oddessy Tour was great ,when we finally connected with them. We booked our tour with Viator, only to find that on the day of the tour we could not find the group at the address we were given., Oddessy had no information about our booking but, because of our own efforts to join the tour were able to join a group (taking the last 2 available places). Viator had in fact sold us a Tour that was meant for passengers from cruise ships. As there were no cruise ships in that day, Viator In essence, sold us a non-existent tour.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
