It was a hectic start to the day. Too many busses all trying to load at the same time and place. After it was great! We had May and Anna. May was full of knowledge and was super welcoming and helpful. Anna was a great driver! We did Titanic and Giants Causeway. At the Causeway, highly recommend bathroom, walk the cliff, and then the Causeway.

The stops are easy to find, labled and u can work out what time th...
