The holiday was good but the transfer arrangements for people north of Lymm travelling to the north where awful. We whete collected at Lancaster at 06.45 and taken to preston by taxi. We got on a feeder coach which travelled to Lymm picking up at Bamber Bridge Leyland Chorley and Wigan. At Lymm we got on our holiday coach at Lymm an it then drove north from Lymm passing through Lancaster around 11am, over 4 hours after we left Lancaster. We then had another 11 hours before we reached the hotel. On the return we did same in reverse. Passing Lancaster about 3.15pm on way to Lymm before being eventually dropped at Lancaster at 8.15pm. Again over an extra 4 hours. We have decided if this is what happens we won't be travelling with Shearings if this doesn't change. It made an already long day nearly unbearable. Spent the holiday dreading the journey home.

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback on our Titanic Belfast and Giant’s Causeway holiday. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the holiday overall, but we’re very sorry that the transfer arrangements made the journey so difficult.

We completely understand your frustration
at being taken south to Lymm before travelling north again, particularly when this added several hours to an already very long journey. We appreciate how tiring this must have been and, understandably, how it affected your enjoyment of the journey home.

Your detailed comments and concerns about the interchange arrangements will be shared with the relevant team for review. We’re sorry that this experience has left you reconsidering travelling with us, and we hope we can improve these arrangements for future holidays.

We’ve been to the Giants Causeway before thank goodness as the weather on this trip was horrible, very heavy rain making it difficult to time your trip to the causeway between the heavy showers. As Dr Johnson once said about the causeway “worth seeing but not worth going to see”. It is a spectacular natural phenomenon but once you’ve seen it once, that’s enough. The Titanic experience is very interesting but was very busy, so trying to read the information was hard as people stood in front of you when trying to read. Note to myself, next time get a audio guide.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I'm pleased to hear that you found the Titanic Experience interesting and enjoyed seeing the Giant's Causeway, particularly as you had visited before and knew what to expect.

I'm sorry that the weather impacted your enjoyment of the Causeway, as
the heavy rain clearly made it difficult to make the most of the visit. I also appreciate your comments regarding the Titanic Experience being extremely busy, which made it challenging to read some of the displays at times.

Thank you again for sharing your experience. We appreciate both your positive comments and your constructive feedback.

We had a fantastic time in Belfast. Our driver, Mick, was very friendly and professional. We loved the Titanic Experience and the chance to see the Giants Causeway. Absolutely stunning scenery along the way. Our hotel, Ramada Wyndham, was central and within easy walking distance of everywhere around the city centre. Rooms were lovely and very clean. The staff in the hotel were so friendly and helpful. All of the meals were exceptional quality. We really couldn’t fault it at all. If there was only one downside, it was the driver who met us on the feeder coach on the return journey from Leeds Skelton Services, back to Hull. He had a real attitude problem and was probably the most unhelpful coach driver I’ve ever come across. He almost left our cases at Leeds, although he swore he’d checked them on the coach and he couldn’t even be bothered to let the passengers know which route he was taking so that we knew in which order we were stopping. This wasn’t helpful for people who were relying on lifts after being dropped off. That said, we wouldn’t let it spoil our amazing holiday, but think Shearings should direct some customer service training to a certain driver.

Excellent driver, very professional. Ensured the well being of passengers at all times. Particularly caring when passenger was ill and admitted to hospital. Couldn't fault hotel, attractions, or the journey. Only glitch was confusion on outbound crossing when evening meal voucher were not there. Driver Gavin took a decision to ask to buy our own, keep receipts and we would be reimbursed. That was not a problem but the head office made him feel uncomfortable about doing that and therefore us passengers felt very uncomfortable on his behalf. On the whole, a good trip.

The timings of the trip were brilliant from our feeder taxi to our shearings pick up. Barry, the driver was wonderful and nothing was too much bother. The hotel was superb with lovely food and amazing staff. On the Tuesday and Wednesday we did the visits to the Titanic museum and then The Giant’s Causeway which were both fantastic. On the Thursday we did our own thing and I can thoroughly recommend the Red Bus Tour and the Crumblin Jail. Belfast is a beautiful city with friendly people and wonderful pubs! The only drawback were the two long travelling days and the waits at the ferry terminal was long. However, the positives outweigh the negatives and I would certainly do the trip again.
