Belfast tour was fascinating. Very sombre but very educational . Castle Dunluce and the Giant’s Causeway were spectacular for us Travelers should expect expert guides that knows history. We had that,

Our tour went quite well, but I wish we would have been given a time and activity outline at the beginning so that we could manage expectations. We arrived at the Jam cafe around 9 for a quick snack and bathroom break followed by a Black cab tour of 90 minutes. We were dropped off at the Titanic museum, but we were not told if this was our lunch break or not, so we quickly grabbed some sub-par expensive food in case it was. At 11:40 we left for Dunluce Castle and arrived at 12:50 for 30 minutes. We arrived at Giants causeway at 1:30 and were given two hours to explore and have lunch. We enjoyed our lamb stew and cheesecake at The Nook which had been recommended by Steven, our guide. We left at 3:40 and had a 20 minute break at Applegreen at 6:20. We arrived back in the city by 7:30. Steven was a very entertaining tour guide with music and stories galore. Krishna was an excellent driver!

It was a great trip. I learned and saw so much. Would highly recommend it. It makes for a long day but we’ll worth it.

What an incredible trip, learned, laughed, cried. Pat with the Hat’s black cab was superb, with in depth personal knowledge and experience. Dave and Billy our tour guide and driver were fabulous, shared stories and songs through the trip. Very well organized and coordinated. Must do!

There were plenty of opportunities for bathroom breaks and eating. I found the Black Taxi drivers a little hard to understand and I would suggest they have some kind of headset/Vox so you could hear them better. Our tour director was very personable and knowledgeable. We had ample time to enjoy the areas we visited.

Our driver Krishna Kuma and guide Stephen O’Malley were fantastic. The castle and Giants Causway were great as well, worth a 5 star review by itself. The black cab was barely a tour as we stood in the cold for 45 minutes outside the peace wall. It was a bit preachy and repetitive.

What a fantastic tour! Steven our guide was amazing and insightful in the stories he shared. Our driver got us everywhere safely and in a timely manner! The black cab tour in Belfast was a living history tour and the highlight of the trip. Our driver John brought the city to life. So grateful for this experience.
