“This was a fun tour. You do a lot so it may feel like you aren't getting a lot of time at all the places but you are seeing so much and our tour guide Stuart was funny and informative. The lunch at the hedges hotel is good and the dark hedges aren't that far from the giants causeway. Overall it's a good day out and you get to see alot. Definitely good value for money as they also get you discounts at the castles and the lunch as part of the tour.”
