He didn’t provide much information or tell many stories. Most of his talking was complaining about the traffic and other drivers.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 47 reviews · 2 days · from $234

Two guided days from Dublin to Belfast and Northern Ireland, with Titanic Belfast, Giant’s Causeway, Dunluce Castle, and more.

“Overall good tour! I did these activities in the following order - Day 1: Monasterboice Cemetery, Belfast city (including the black cab tour) and the Titanic Experience. My opinion is it would be better to go to the Titanic before Belfast City. I went on a Sunday, and many of the shops did not open until 1 pm, anyway (we arrived around 11 am). As I was also spending the night in Belfast, it would have been more cohesive to have just done the Titanic and then had the entire rest of the day in the city. Day 2: Dunluce Castle, Giant's Causeway, Fullerton Arms pub, Dark Hedges. I loved…”

Our tour guide was first class, fun and very knowledgeable. The train trip was easily managed and overseen by company representatives all the way. They kept us informed and never wondering about the trip details, meeting points, etc. Excellent trip and my wife and I enjoyed it immensely. I would do it again.”

15.Rail Tour from Dublin: 2-Day West Coast Explorer

★★★★★★★★★★3.7 · 10 reviews · from $510

2-day rail tour from Dublin to Bunratty, Cliffs of Moher, Galway Bay and Connemara, with one hotel night in Galway.

“The second day is poorly planned, as you spend almost the entire day on a coach and when you arrive at the monastery there is not enough time to see the monastery and the gardens and eat. On the other hand, the guide is the coach driver himself and spends the entire trip without stopping talking, which in addition to being very tiresome is a danger.”
