Black taxi tour with Brendan - Have to give a massive shoutout to Brendan who took us on the tour today. Brendan picked us up from our hotel, brought us down the Falls and Shankill road and many other local, fascinating spots along the way. He was a very honest, friendly and insightful guide, who made us feel very at home and kept us interested throughout the journey. Can’t thank Brendan enough for what felt like a journey through time and through the troubles. Highly recommend this guy and this tour 🙌🏼

Amazing experience from start to finish - Amazing experience from start to finish. I highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Belfast! This tour surpassed our expectations as a couple, leaving us with a newfound appreciation for Belfast and it's troubled history. As we passed through neighborhoods marked by political murals and memorials, our guide shared personal stories and historical context, allowing us to gain a deeper understanding of the events that shaped Belfast's past.

Authentic and in depth tour, MUST DO - Davy, our driver, provided a fascinating and comprehensive tour of Belfast focusing on his childhood neighborhood and real events that he saw during “the troubles” period. He was authentic and knowledgable on all details and shows the optimism of the citizens of Belfast. Great tour and a MUST DO event if you have a few hours in the city. Book early as slots fill quickly.

The Highlight of our stay in Belfast - My husband and I had heard so much about the Belfast Black taxi tours that we decided to take the tour. Brendan was our tour guide and we were not disappointed. He was so knowledgeable and explained "The Troubles" in such a clear and understandable way. He made the history come alive for us. We were able to visit the murals among other very interesting sights and were given plenty of time to fully absorb the history of each. This tour was the highlight of our visit to Belfast.

The best way to learn about Belfast. - This is definitely the best way to really learn about Belfast & it's history. We had a tour in February with the wonderful Belfast-native Stephen. Stephen was extremely knowledgeable & enthusiastic. It was incredible to see how far Belfast has progressed over the years and how other movements from around the world influenced the movements in Northern Ireland. I recommend taking the tour on a sunny day because you get to make several stops where you get to walk up to murals to see them up close. I highly recommend this tour.
