The tour we were rebooked on was fine, but not the one we were originally wanted. I was not happy with it costing me an extra $300 because of the change. This was for an extra covid test to enter Northern Ireland, which I was told we would not have to take. Also for meals on the extra day we spent in Dublin. We had the taxi to the airport booked, but our flight was changed at midnight the night before. I called to change the time of pick up because it would be 2 hours earlier and they did not answer the phone, so had to pay the cab fare.
