Ireland has a beautiful country side. This is a must-do when visiting Ireland -- a magical place -- and I would consider this one of my favorite tours yet.

Despite it being a very long day trip from Dublin, it was well worth it. I always wanted to see the Giant's Causeway. It helped that it was a warm and clear. I am not a fast walker, with a knee problem, but was able to do everything. Earlier I did the rope bridge, and at the Causeway I did the cliff walk and down the cliff on the shepherd's path. There is also a shuttle bus for a small fee which you can take to save time and energy. Lunch is mid-afternoon at the Causeway. Menu orders were taken on the bus so there wouldn't be a long wait. People did take euros on the train and in the shops at the Causeway, but at a slight premium. People came on the train from Dublin and also boarded at Belfast so you can end up with a full bus. On the return, the Belfast people were dropped off first, so the rail tour people ended up with a mini-tour of downtown Belfast.

A little confusing getting together with the guide at the train station, but he was great once we figured out where to stand. Wish they spent a little more time touring Belfast, otherwise wonderful trip. Definitely call before you show up at the train station - they did not have our reservations but were able to add us at the last minute.

This was great trip, and the person that made that possible was the guide. He was very good. The driver on the bus tour was very knowledgeable and went the extra mile to make our tour great.

This is a great tour and a must see. Giant's Causeway is one of the "Must See Destinations" according to "Life" Publishing. The many photo stops along the way are great and the rope bridge is fantastic. Even though I am terrified of heights I made my way across and felt a sense of triumph at the accomplishment. A real rush! Giant's Causeway is a marvel of Mother Nature and has to be seen to understand the beauty. It's a hike though! You have to hike a great deal to get to both locations, so be prepared.
