Northern Ireland can be quite a bit colder than Dublin and certainly more windy. The Donluce Castle and Giants Causeway is beautiful, wild and very, very windy. It’s physical, but not too challenging to enjoy if in decent physical condition. The black cab tour with Liam MrGrady was extrememly compelling as he and his family experienced the Troubles first hand. Be prepared to listen carefully as the Northern Ireland English can be a little difficult to understand. Liam was very patient.

Kevin was so knowledgeable and made the experience great! Giants Causeway is quite a hike but such a beautiful sight to see! The Political Black Taxi tour was very insightful and I would definitely recommend it!

The tour guide and bus driver were great. Very knowledgeable about the area, sights, and history. They kept the group on schedule so that we could be on time and see everything. The cab tour would have been better if our driver would have gone been a little more detailed on info about the conflict in Belfast. It also felt a little one sided and not an unbiased account and tour.

This tour BLEW US AWAY! I can’t begin to express how impactful this tour was. Una was one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. Her personal connection to the story, her candor, and her investment in sharing experiences and learning was unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. She went as far as to show us full slide shows to share the history of the North of Ireland and make sure we all felt prepared for this experience. DO THE BLACK CAB TOUR!!! Our cab driver was the kindest, most empathetic person I’ve had the privilege of meeting and I felt such a personal connection to him and his life. Dunluce Castle was out of this world and Giant’s Causeway was unlike anything we’ve ever seen. John, our bus driver, went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and cared for. Would do this tour again and again.

Really recommend this day trip. It’s a long day but the coach was comfortable ànd Oona ànd Paolo kept us informed and entertained whilst on the road. The highlight was the black cab tour in Belfast. John was informative ànd funny and more than happy to answer any questions. His passion for his city shone through. The people looking after us throughout the day were kind, funny and informed.
