Black Taxi Tour Belfast

"This is a excellent tour, with alot of information given by Jimmy, the guide regarding the history of the city and provided a political and impartial point of view. I wad picked up & dropped back off outside the Leonardo Hotel in the city centre and tue tour lasted 1 hour but it was expensive at £50 for an individual ticket and I got that at a discount when I enquired about the online £60 price tag. We drove through the Protestant & Catholic sides of the city, separated by the wall and the gates. The Peace Wall was the highlight of the tour for me, reading what people have wrote in years gone by, whereas the gates themselves were most surprising & shocking. I did this tour in March 2023 and it was a typical early spring day - sun & showers. We got out of the cab a couple of times to look at murals closer up so I would recommend sensible footwear and suitable clothing for the weather."

"We picked this tour as it was shorter than some of the other tours and we had a 6 year old with us! It was a fascinating well balanced insight into The Troubles. Growing up in the UK, The Troubles were a regular feature in the news but always from a British perspective. Our guide shared his personal connections to the troubles and experiences growing up. We toured famous conflict points and murals with a colourful engaging narrative from our guide. Our 16 year old was so interested he would have happily done a longer tour. A definite must do experience for anyone visiting Belfast. Thank you."

"Very informative! We learned so much about the tension in Belfast- past and present. Mr. Lyons did an excellent job as guide and driver, adding personal experiences to the tour."

"This was a fantastic experience that was wonderfully conducted by our very engaging humorous and knowledgeable guide John(Jackie) 1/11/22 His detailed knowledge and presentation was something else. We could only recommend this tour highly and were delighted with John's brilliant unbiased presentation of a very sad and troubled time in our country. Thankfully times are changing for the better. Thanks. Pat Mary and Padraig. Co Clare."

"Jimmy was a great guide. A thorough historian, great attention to detail. Very friendly, even offered one of us his coat when he thought a we might be cold. He kindly shared his personal experiences and photos which added greatly to the tour. Couldn’t recommend him more!"
