Every city has it’s shopping and coffee culture but Belfast city has a unique past after coming out of 30 years of conflict.Your guides are the original drivers who had to transport their communities through the bullets and bombs of THE TROUBLES and have their lives at risk every time they seat in their black cabs.
The North of Ireland has become famous for the murals painted in almost every area of the country . These pictures of IRA ,UVF murals are often flashed around the world on news bulletins or used as a backdrop when interviewing people. They often depict the history and political views of both traditions and are a way of marking territory. These wall paintings often look intimidating but they have become as much of a tourist attraction as many of the regular attractions within Belfast and beyond.

When I book a tour called a Black Taxi tour, I would expect it to be in a black taxi, not a mini van.

We cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Jake, our tour guide, was extremely informative giving us insight and knowledge that we did not have before. We were impressed with just how much was included in the tour. We will be recommending it to anyone we know visiting Belfast.

Our guide JR was fantastic! He clearly led us through a history of the “Troubles”. JR pointed out details of the gates, walls and murals we would not have seen. We recommend JR with no hesitation. He has a good sense of humor too.

If you want to learn about the history of Belfast and its struggles, this is it. Our driver lived through the upheaval, but had a positive, and informative attitude in explaining it to us. It is a heavy, emotional tour, but he tried to lighten up the mood at times. After the tour, you will need to do something fun and light hearted. We went to a pub!

We grew up in the times of the Troubles and had a mainland perspective. This tour gave us visits to Loyalist and Republican murals with a history of the conflict. Our guide, Stevie G was extremely knowledgeable whilst giving a balanced perspective . If you’re visiting Belfast, this tour is a must and if you get Stevie, then you’ve struck gold. Probably the best city tour we’ve ever had.
