Great tour! Learned so much from Craig! Food was great, but the tour was so long, although it may be because of our jet lag!! Lovely afternoon!

Cancelled Day of Activity

Hugely disappointing. We signed up for this tour months in advance. We were asked if we could change start time, which we agreed to. Then, after boarding a train to Belfast from Dublin we were contacted on the day of the tour it was cancelled. No reason for the cancellation. Now we are left scrambling for activities for the day.

Operator response

Hi Doug, thank you for sharing your feedback. We completely understand how disappointing this must have been. Situations like this are uncommon, and while we were not able to accommodate you on this occasion, we truly appreciate you sharing your perspective. Feedback like yours helps us continue refining the experience and the way we communicate with our guests when unexpected circumstances arise. We hope you'll consider giving us another opportunity to welcome you on one of our tours in the future. We'd love the chance to provide the experience that so many of our guests have come to enjoy.
