Shoulder Season runs until 4 pm

4.00This tour was great and packed with information. Easy to find the starting point and there were enough opportunities to hop off. We enjoyed so much we went two days in a row. The only draw back was at 3:45 about 10 of us were standing at a pick up spot close to the Titanic. 15 minutes later most of us jumped on a city transit bus to make our way back. During shoulder seasons, it turns out that the buses only run until 4 pm. which doesn't equate to a pick up before 4. Not sure how that works

5.00Don our bus driver and tour guide was excellent and informative and made it interesting as he added his sense of humour to it and made what could have been just a rehearsed account much more and his ability to explain to the people on the tour that knew little about the troubles in Northern Ireland in a way that was easy to understand was spot on,
Great tour guide

4.00We took the City Tour Belfast to move between a couple of key attractions and in the end did the whole tour. City Sightseeing is the other main tour, but is smaller. City Tour Belfast goes past key attractions but also some main areas affected by the Troubles. The commentary on board is very informative.
A great way to see this amazing city

5.00We did the double-decker city tour and it was excellent value for money. Because it was freezing and raining we sat downstairs, but the experience was still really enjoyable. Anne was incredibly knowledgeable and chatty, and our driver Garry was very jolly and friendly — they really made the tour. We stayed on for the full loop, hopped off for coffee, then jumped back on and headed to the Titanic Museum. Being able to use it all day makes it such a flexible and easy way to see the city. Only minor downside was the cold — it didn’t seem like there was any heating on, and it was absolutely freezing 🥶. That aside, a great way to explore Belfast and would definitely recommend.
Good way to familiarise yourself with the city.

4.00Great tour, good opportunity to see key sights across the city. Only comment is that it was very very difficult to hear the tour guide/driver. That was disappointing.
