Book with Ricky
Ricky was terrific as our guide and just a very nice man! He went out of his way to make sure we enjoyed the tour.
Response from the operator: Thanks for taking the time to write a review. I am glad you enjoyed your day. Ricky.

No show
We booked this tour but couldn’t contact the provider. We called and texted the provider multiple times while we are waiting for the van for pickup, no response.
Response from the operator: You tried to book a Causeway tour at 07.43 for a 08.00 pickup the same day giving me 17 mins notice. What did you think. I’m not on line 24 hrs a day. One days notice would have been good NOT 17 minutes.

Great driver, great sites, great tour
JJ was a great guide and driver. Stopped at the Titanic museum to check out the building and pointed out the length of the ship. Our first stop at Dark Hedges we were the only ones there. At the rope bridge 3 of the 6 went down to cross and very few people and we had the bridge to ourselves. At Giants Causeway he parked very close to the entrance as we had a member of our party who has some mobility issues. He was opening and closing the door for her. We can't express enough what a great time the six of us had. We are so glad we booked this private tour.
Response from the operator: Thanks for your review and taking the time to publish it. Glad you enjoyed your time. Ricky

Martin Made Our Day
When Martin arrived at the hotel in the morning, he asked us what we wanted to see. We told him to show us things that he liked. He proceeded to teach us more history in the next few hours than we had learned in all of our family history research. Although the Giants’ Causeway was a long drive away, Martin found the time to bring us by the Troubles wall and inform us on the tensions that continue today. Every stop along the way, he lifted me out of the van and secured me in my wheelchair. He helped me push along steep paths to awesome viewing spots. He even bought the three of us ice cream from a local dairy. Absolutely top class guy 👏
Response from the operator: Thanks for your great review and I will certainly pass this onto Martín my driver. I’m glad your experience with RD Chauffeur Services was a great experience. Ricky

VIATOR - worst tour operator ever!!! They will rip you off!!!
We booked this day trip and was so excited to go to Belfast. We got notice from our ship captain the morning before we were to arrive that we would not be stopping at Belfast due to the high winds. I immediately called Viator, then I was messaging and emailing them. They refused to give us our money back as they said I cancelled the day of the tour, although I sent the email from them stating the exact date and time I contacted by email and it was the day before at 10:40am. I then get a email stating that it was within 12 hours of the trip which would have been after 10PM, again my email shows 10:40AM. They do not care about their customers and we booked several day trips with them all over Amsterdam, Ireland, Iceland and Scotland. The company located in Ireland was RD Chauffeur Services.. Beware of VIATOR and RD Chauffeur Services out of Ireland!!!! It was a disappoint to miss Belfast but to be out over $800.00 for a tour we did not get to do and documentation from the captain of the ship and email log showing the time of the email from viator is heartbreaking. Sad to see a company like VIATOR & RD Chauffeur Services treat their customers like that. VIATOR you should be ashamed of yourself especially when we have spent over $10,000.00 with you this year!!!!
Response from the operator: I am RD Chauffeur Services. I was notified at 15.42 by email. Terms and conditions are exactly what they mean. These are Viator terms and conditions not mine. We take bookings all the time and get 5 star reviews ‘always’. I am sorry you had your stop over cancelled due to weather conditions, which I have no control over and I am based in the UK and not Ireland

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belfast.
How much does Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones cost?
+
Prices start at $650 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Belfast usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Belfast is not rushed.
Is Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 74 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Belfast, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones?
+
Around 26 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Belfast can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Belfast and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Tour: Giant's Causeway, Castles, and Game of Thrones start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Belfast within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Belfast?
+
On Outty we rank every Belfast experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include A History of Terror - Belfast City Centre Walking Tour, Belfast Troubles Tour: Walls and Bridges, Giants Causeway and Castles from Belfast: Guided Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Belfast?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Belfast?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
