Paddywagon Tours- Belfast/Antrim Coast

Hi-
Has anyone taken the Paddywagon Tours trip from Belfast to Giants Causeway-Derry for the day? If so, how would you rate it, how many people typically fit on the tour, and is it appropriate for a family with older teens and grandparents?
Thanks.

Hi betyeg:

I never used a tour in Irealnd but I have heard a fair amount about Paddy Wagon Tours. From what I understand, they cater to a younger crowd and their photo gallery certainly supports that. A one day tour is likely a bit less frenzied.

They use smaller vans but they would certianly have room for your family if you booked in advance.

Sorry, but the title took me back to my childhood. Paddy wagon! That was the police van that picked up drunks and "bums" in 190's Pittsburgh!

Thanks for the laugh!

Paddywagon is definitely geared to the younger set but, if you consider yourselves young in spirit, you would do with it quite nicely. As well, Lynott Tours as a day trip to the Giant's Causeway.

The benefit of Using PaddyWagon is that they are a local company with local guides, which makes for an interesting and lively day. Whichever you choose, understand that it will be a LONG day. Paddywagon would be the best choice, as the tours are small.

Have a most excellent adventure!

Slan Beo,
