"A great time on our Northern Ireland day tour"
Sep 2019 by Railtours Guest
"My sister and I had a great time on our Northern Ireland day tour. We were celebrating her birthday and our tour guide Paul with McCombs Coach Company, a partner of Railtours Ireland, was a terrific driver and a great tour guide. He made the time between stops tolerable with his interesting facts and great sense of humor. He also had a special surprise to commemorate my sisters big day. David with Railtours made sure we got from Dublin to Belfast with zero problems. Highly recommend the rope bridge and Giants Causeway! Great views! Thanks to Paul and David for making our trip memorable."
"This tour is well organized and it gives you plenty of time at the stops to enjoy.."

This is a fantastic tour-starts with a train ride from Dublin to Belfast where a bus tour starts. Sean our guide was great and Patrick our bus driver was fantastic. He gave us so much history about the country up in the North of Ireland. Yes, the trip is long but so worthwhile-you see and learn so much. Our days were sunny so we explored the Giant's Causeway--this tour is well organized and it gives you plenty of time at the stops to enjoy the countryside. Highly recommended.
"The train ride was a better way to get to Northern Ireland, more leg room..."

The train ride was a better way to get to Northern Ireland, more leg room, small group, not as crowded as a bus. The bus from Belfast up the coast to the bridge then the Causeway was fantastic!! The driver was knowledgeable, funny and could give a brief political/religious overview without being political or biased, he promoted Belfast and Northern Ireland for more tourism. The scenery was incredible and weather was not horrible lol. The bridge, while pretty cool, was not a big as I expected, but the Giants Causeway was what I was really going to see.

Was a wonderful tour! Great views along the coast. We had a good amount of time at the rope bridge and plenty of time at the giant's causeway. The tour guide and driver were wonderful, gave us a detailed itinerary to help plan our time.

Leaving Belfast we take the coast road north from here. We continue on passing the coastal villages of Glenariff, Cushendall and Cushendun. There are stunning views of the sea to the right and the mountains or the Glens of Antrim to the left. You can even glimpse the Scottish coast on a clear day.
We have a lovely lunch stop at the Fullerton Arms in Ballintoy for a delicious pub grub style lunch.
The highlight of the tour is definately a visit to Giant’s Causeway, Irelands only World Heritage Site. Spend some time climbing over the ancient stones, snapping some photos, and enjoying the myths and legends that surround this world famous attraction. We then re-board our luxury coach, and make our way along the coast, for one last short stop at the ancient ruins of Dunluce Castle.we head back to Belfast to return to Dublin.
