Seeing the true Belfast - Our driver, Danny, was very kind and funny! He offered us to see the true Belfast and he did! He showed us a complete and emotional tour of what we thought was history. He took time to answer our questions and for us to take pictures and sign the wall. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to learn and see more than a tourist attraction. Pairing this with Crumlin Goal was a great experience too! The jail is very good for self-guided tours with many videos and explanations along the way.

Superbly informative thought provoking tour - This seemed expensive when booking this tour but was worth every penny. John was our guide and he gave what we thought was a balanced view on the Troubles. His knowledge was great and he was able to answer all my questions and fill in all the gaps of my knowledge. Nothing was rushed and it was moving to hear the stories behind this awful time in NI. Sad that there is still a sectarian divide but blood runs deep and it’s easy to understand why it still remains although hopefully in time, the walls can come down and people can learn to learn be with each other peacefully. One of the best tours that we have ever done, thank you John! The gaol visit afterwards was good too but the black taxi mural tour was the best thing we did whilst here in Belfast.

Ask for Danny! - This was by far the best taxi ride I have had. We were told by many people to do the Black Taxi in Belfast and it did not disappoint. Danny was our tour guide and he did a exceptional job showing us around the neighborhoods of Belfast. The jail tour was wonderful also. Very well laid out and informative.

Must do! - We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Danny. He was incredibly knowledgeable and left us with much more history than what we imagined we would find. He gave us great recommendations for how to explore the jail and the rest of our trip here. Thanks, Danny! 10 stars if we could! Would definitely do this again. - Mercedes and Amber

Disappointing Day! - Stevie talked a lot about the troubles and the figureheads on the walls, but did not allow for questions. His can door didn’t close well. He only spent 1 hour taking us to the different wall murals. He did not take us to the jail.
