Exceptional Experience - Thomas and James were excellent in thinking of every detail to make our trip delightful! We had 11 in our party with two required wheelchairs and these guys were very accommodating! The Nok restaurant at the Giant Causeway was a definitely bonus!

Excellent Tour and Service!! - Ricky was nothing short of amazing. We did three transports including two airport transfers and a tour day including Dark Hedges,Dunluce Castle, Giants Causeway, Cerrifurgus Castle finally Old Bushmills distillery. He was an excellent guide providing commentary along the way which we appreciated. On a personal note my son was jumped the night before and was too injured to come with us and Ricky helped me search the alley for his wallet and also helped us get a refund from Old Bushmills. He went above and beyond. Exactly the kind of person you want when you are in a foreign country. He also went out of his way to insure my older parents minimized their walking which again was appreciated. I highly recommend his services.

An Excellent Adventure - Communication with the company was excellent. We started planning our trip months in advance. Prior to arrival, our driver, Dessie, was assigned. What a pleasant and lovely gentleman. He took us up to the Dark Hedges, the rope bridge, Giant's Causeway, got a glimpse of the castle, and then back to the hotel. We had him booked the following day to drive us quite a distance into Ireland. He's full of information, and we really enjoyed our time. His information on Belfast (including a drive around and discussion of the city and its people) was fascinating.

Perfect Day Trip - RD Chauffeur services is an amazing find, and I think quite reasonable! SO glad we used them! What a terrific day trip! Ricky showed up right on time, and we set off on our private (6 in our group) tour of Northern Ireland. We had plenty of time at each stop, and we weren’t limited by tour bus schedules. We even had a relaxing and delicious lunch at The Nook at the Giant’s Causeway. It was a spectacular day, filled with very personalized service. Ricky is incredibly professional and personable. He is fun, easy to get along with and full of knowledge and interesting facts! I would definitely use this service again!

ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!! Best day of our two week vacation!! - Thomas was absolutely wonderful! He took great care of us, was extremely knowledgeable, and made the day so much fun! We all agreed that this was our favorite day of our two week trip all around the British Isles! He took us places you can’t get to with a large tour and tailored the day based on our interests. I can’t recommend this enough. We will absolutely use them again if we are back in Ireland! I would give more than five stars if I could! Thanks Thomas!

Excellent Private Northern Ireland Tour - The private tour to sites in Northern Ireland with Tony was definitely well worth the money! We were able to visit a lot more places than expected, including multiple locations that tour buses can't go. We even went to a few off the beaten path places, including some caves and a waterfall. They even accommodated a tour we scheduled with Bushmills Distillery during the day. We learned a lot about Irish culture from our tour guide Tony too!

Can’t recommend highly enough - Ricky looked after our family of 7 (age 12-80!) all week, from efficient, luxurious pick up/return to the airport to fabulous, informative tours of Belfast and the North Antrim Coast. The service was slick, informative and professional but even better, Ricky is a personable and caring host. We loved his stories and his humour and he made all the difference to our holiday. Can’t recommend highly enough.

Excellent private tour of the beautiful countryside - We loved this tour! Our guide Ryan was fun, interesting, and really helpful; I particularly appreciated his care and concern for my father who was having knee trouble. You could tell Ryan was proud to share his country and hometown through the enthusiastic way he told stories and how he wanted to share various points along the way. We had a great day with various scenic viewpoints you can't access if you are on a big bus tour. Our vehicle was nice, clean, and comfortable. We were on a cruise ship with unusual port times (1:00pm to 10:00pm), and he adapted our itinerary to our preferences and point of interest opening hours. We went to a lovely seaside town (Ballycastle) where he recommended a delicious fish and chips place and ice cream for dessert. The rope bridge was really cool but keep in mind that there is quite a decent walk to get to it (20 min each way), so plan accordingly. Once back in Belfast, we had a brief driving tour of points of interest which was not a part of the original itinerary but he was able to accommodate us since we had "spare" time before we had to leave. I particularly liked how we could adapt the schedule to allow for more/less time at places.

Tailor-Made and Stressless - The six of us entered the Mercedes and were introduced to probably the most matter-of-fact and genuine bloke you could ever meet. He helped us immensely with his knowledge of the locations we visited, including how to do a whisky tasting at Bushmills Distillery without paying the entrance fee! The suggested lunch spot didnt have many gluten free options, when a couple of us in the group are coeliac. We asked if we could go to a lunch spot in Bushmills town and he said it wasn’t a problem and took us there instead. These are the sorts of things that make a tour elite, when it’s completely stressless and we have the freedom to make little changes that won’t affect the trip all that much. Thomas took us to carrick-a-rede rope bridge, balintoy harbour, giant’s causeway, Old Bushmill’s Distillery, Dunluce Castle AND Dark Hedges. At each place we requested to visit, he would patiently wait for us and help us into the minivan. We set off at 9am outside the Europa Hotel where we were staying and made it back to the hotel by 18:15pm. When we described the day we had to other tourists we spoke to their jaws dropped. The coaches never do this amount of things in a day, and you can never be settled because of the ‘meeting times’. With this service, Thomas went above and beyond and we were so grateful. The only criticism I have is that the aircon stopped working towards the end of the trip, but that wasn’t anyone’s fault per se.
Highly recommend to anyone who wants a tailor-made trip that avoids the tourist traps. It was our highlight for our trip to Belfast and it made us want to book a tour of the north coast in future.
Favourite part of the trip: When we arrived at Dunluce Castle and the sun came through the clouds… or the whisky tasting… can’t decide!
