Rejseplan
Vi samler dig i stil i en luksus Paddywagon Coach. Din tur begynder med en naturskøn drev op gennem Glens of Antrim til Irlands nordkyst. Vi samler passagerer fra krydstogtskibet kl. 07:30 til afrejse kl. 08.00. Hvor dit skib docker senere end 07:30 starter turen 30 minutter efter afstigningen påbegyndes.
Vi tillader god tid på Giant's Causeway for at komme dig ned for at besøge dette berømte verdensarvsted. Det er en 20 minutters gang fra Drop Off-punktet til det fantastiske Causeway-sted, men der er en shuttle-bus, der kører for et mindre gebyr, ideelt til dem, der ikke er behagelige at gå op og ned ad den stejle gradient (bakke) til Causeway. De sekskantede basaltsten ser virkelig ud som om de var menneskeskabte, og det får folk i Irland til at tro, at de blev hugget af Irlands mest berømte Giant Warrior: den store Finn MacCoole. Der er også et forslag om, at de muligvis er dannet af vulkansk aktivitet for 60 millioner år siden. Der skal betales £ 11 på stedet for at besøge det nye Causeway besøgende Center, som har butikker, et multimedieshow og restauranter. Stoppetider er afhængige af din ruteplan for krydstogtskibe **
Vi nyder fantastiske seværdigheder, da vi tager en panorama kørsel langs Antrims nordkyst, også kendt som Causeway Coast. Dette område er anerkendt af regeringen som et område med enestående naturskønhed. Det er virkelig betagende med forrevne klipper, sandstrande og en vidunderlig udsigt over Skotland.
Vi stopper for et af de mest imponerende fotomuligheder i Irland, den storslåede Dunluce Castle. En del af denne imponerende ruin smuldrede i havet i 1600'erne. Dette slot er forbundet med fastlandet ved en bro og var engang borgernes McDonnell-kloster. Baggrunden for havet og nordkysten gør dette til et rigtig dramatisk foto stop!
Vi besøger de mest populære naturfænomener i Nordirland, Dark Hedges. Træerne blev plantet i 1700-tallet af Stuart-familien for at imponere deres gæster ved ankomsten til deres hus. De fleste af jer vil genkende Dark Hedges som King's Road fra hit-tv-serien Game of Thrones. Det er et vidunderligt fotostop og en mulighed for at være en del af det virkelige liv!
Om eftermiddagen vender vi tilbage til Belfast City for en panoramisk sightseeingtur. Vi vil vise dig højdepunkterne i denne pulserende by, herunder rådhuset, floden Lagan, Queens University, St. Anne's Cathedral og Prince Albert Memorial Clock. Efter panorama-turen tillader vi fritid til flere sightseeing og shopping, hvis din afgangstid tillader det. BEMÆRK: Hvis dit skib forlader tidligere end normalt, skal vi ændre rejseplanen efter behov.
Vi strukturerer hver tur for at sikre, at du er tilbage om bord i god tid til afrejse. Tjenesten slutter tilbage ved havnefronten efter ca. 8 timer på tur. Hvis båden forlader tidligere, vil vi ændre rejseplanen efter behov.

Unfortunately not a great trip. We waited over an hour on the coach at the Belfast port to depart due to late passengers. I note that the tour indicated the bus would depart within 30 mins of docking. I’m not sure why the rules weren’t enforced as it inconvenienced those of us who did follow instructions. We also needed to wait again at the Giants Causeway for these same passengers past the scheduled time to be back to the coach. Overall it took limited time away from our excursions that we paid for. Our guide James was very good, but the delays were frustrating and he shouldn’t have had to cater to their schedule. Their abuse of our time took away from all of our experiences. We missed the Dark Hedges altogether due to the delays, which was something we were really looking forward to.
Our Driver was one and half hours late with no communication. All documents and tickets instructed us to be at the meeting point at 730 AM. All of our group was there and no driver. At 745AM I called and was told the driver was on the way, that he was misinformed of the time and thought it was 9 am. We were not told what time to expect the driver only to wait. We stood outside in the cold and mist and waited for our driver for 90 minutes. No communication from Paddywagon that they would be late or what time the driver would arrive. We are a group of 14
The driver/tour guide (I think it was Alec) was amazing. He provided enough history to provide context and gave us enough time at each stop to explore. I did not expect as much time in Belfast, but, because we were on schedule, we were able to explore the city. One note for travelers: it is ~90 minutes from Belfast to the first stop at Dunluce, where there are no facilities.
Great tour guide Justin and our driver Robbie. How wonderful the trip went. Justin is the funniest and Robbie so generous! What a great experience! Keep up the good work mates!!
After getting off the ship, the Paddywagon bus was easy to find. Our driver/guide Alex did a great job of informing us what to expect on the tour in an entertaining way. Alex gave us detailed information at each stop and the time allowed was more than enough to enjoy Dunluce Castle, Giants Causeway, The Dark Hedges and Belfast. We highly recommend using Paddywagon tours if your cruise stops in Belfast.
Fascinating landscape and beautiful scenery on route and along the causeway. Had the weather cooperated it would have made for a great day. Belfast itself does not have a lot to offer. Our guide Alex knew a lot of history about the area which made for a very enjoyable tour.
Worth the trip to see this site! Our driver took us to see the Dark Hedges which was advertised on the Viator itinerary but not the local paddy wagon itinerary but he was nice enough to take us anyway. Great driver.
Stay away from this company... No pickup and no information about the cancellation.
This excursion was awesome. The scenery was magnificent and our guide shane was excellent. Highly recommend
The tour operator was also the bus driver, Shane. He did a good job narrating the tour but we missed out on a couple stops. The first one was The Dark Hedges (I’m a Games of Thrones fan and wanted this stop). When I asked about it, Shane said he left it out intentionally because it is not what it used to be. If that was the case, why was it listed in the itinerary as that is one of the reason I picked this tour. Second missed stop was the Belfast City Center. We were supposed to have free time there but a parade had traffic backed up and Shane said traffic was at a crawl and we might should just head back to the terminal and we did. So our 8 hour tour that we paid for was just under seven with two missed stops. A partial refund or credit is due! The Giant Causeway and coastal drive with gorgeous views with lunch along the way was nice.
