Good introduction to Belfast - There are 3 different companies offering hop on hop off bus tours in Belfast. 2 seem to co-operate and 1 doesn't. I picked up a bus near the SSE Arena and stayed on for the whole trip as weather was poor. Bus was quite full - I managed to get an inside upper seat - others not so fortunate had to sit in the rain on wet seats. Our driver Hugh was also in charge of the commentary and very informative and entertaining it was. A chance to see many of the areas of Belfast that were familiar to me from news reports of the Troubles. A good way to see the murals and we were given a chance to sign the Peace Wall. A good way to explore Belfast if you are on a short visit as I was. I bought a ticket on line the day before my visit and it was a lot cheaper.

Great setup with the route, itinerary etc made exceptional by the witty and informative narrative by the driver Mike - Was easy to find and book online. I did not book in first visit and then got an email with a 10% discount which was well received. Outside the City Hall the team were great, quickly checking our tickets and putting us on a bus. We were lucky to have sunny March day so sat outside on the top deck and had a great view. The route was well planned taking in all the main sights and linking places worth visiting. We stayed on for a complete circuit and the drivers live commentary was excellent, really well balanced with historical fact, personal reflections and some very dry humour. After a coffee and a warm we boarded another bus to the Ulster Museum and then boarded the next passing bus which had our morning driver on. He added new facts to layer on the knowledge from the morning. We then boarded the final bus of the day to HMS Caroline and walked back from there. A really great tour and fantastic team

Fabulous tour - Our driver Catherine was extremely informative and kept the commentary light and funny at times as well. What a wonderful city Belfast is and with her knowledge and humour made everything so very interesting for us all. Would highly recommend!

Brilliant & Well Worth the Money 👍 - Bought tickets online when I booked the city break. Great idea as there is so much to see and the driver tells you all about things as you drive around the city. We got off at Crumlin Road Jail as I also bought tickets for that too then when we were finished there we hopped back on the bus. Well worth the money.

The best of Belfast with a hint of humour - Our driver guide, Catherine, was knowledgeable, entertaining and extremely funny. She took us through the 19 stops in a lively and husky voice (due to too much talking-she said) we learnt a great deal and have a wonderful day in our first trip to Belfast - Highly recommended

Great way to see the city! - Great way to experience the city and get your bearings, including good narration by the driver. Dropped us off right across from the Titanic Museum for our tour.

Great tour around the main sights. - Bank Holiday Monday, we took the bus with driver Dillon and the female (sorry, I forgot the name, I know it was Kate if it was a rubbish tour! ;) We stayed on for the whole tour from City Hall and returned there. It was a great tour, very informative and it was nice to have a real talking guide. It was our first visit to Belfast and we thought the city was amazing! So much so, we did the tour in the afternoon, which was good, but the sound was scratchy and not very loud, the driver was doing the tour and we couldn't really hear much, but we loved the drive around. We felt we got our money's worth and enjoyed it. It was £20 each and the last bus is quite early at 4.30pm.
