Belfast Black Taxi Tour of Murals and Peace Walls 2 hours

Posted By : 369martini
We booked this tour via the Visit Belfast Office and experienced the highlight of our week in Northern Ireland. Davey was our driver and tour guide and he was excellent giving us a detailed tour interspersed with lots of personal experiences growing up during the Troubles. You see both sides of the history of Belfast from the late 60's through to the current peace status. It is a raw, thought provoking and humbling experience. Thank you so much Davey for the information you shared, your memories and your humour.

We did this trip on Thursday, the 20th of June, our taxi driver was called Davey. He had grown up through ‘the troubles’ and gave us an extremely personal and informative tour. It was humbling listening to the trauma he had encountered through his childhood, adolescence through to adult hood and how this had affected his life, along with the people of Belfast from both sides of the conflict. We would highly recommend this tour and you would find it an added bonus if Davey was your tour guide

Brendan is a superb tour guide! I highly recommend the black cab tour of Belfast's murals. Very educational and engaging.

This tour was exceptional. Gave us in-depth information on the historical and current political situation in Belfast. So much different than what the world news would have us believe. Not a religious battle at all but a battle for Irish independence. On the ground explanations of the various murals and the situations that had occurred in the different areas was much appreciated.
Brendan, our driver, had lived through these eras and had much first hand knowledge of these situations. Even so, he was balanced in his views and talked about the process that had lead to this moment in time.
Booking through the hotel was less expensive than online quotes.

We did a guided tour with Gerard who provided us with lots of historical as well as personal information to help us understand the past of the city. The fact that our guide grew up in the area is a real plus. Very instructive and merely unforgettable.

We got the Belfast black taxi tour with Brendan. He was absolutely outstanding at his job and a wealth of knowledge. He took us all around Belfast and gave detailed information on each area we travelled too. He also obliged us by taking photos as we travelled around, I would highly recommend these tours and I would also highly recommend Brendan as tour guide.
