Great service. Punctual and a smooth ride back to Belfast. First time using this way of transport to Dublin Airport and returning. I will definitely use it again rather than taking the car.

The bus driver who picked me up in Dublin was delightful. He was helpful as a couple other people almost got on the wrong bus, but he made sure they knew where to catch the right one. He was very friendly!
