This was a fantastic tour...

4.00This was a fantastic tour - really eye opening and made me feel slightly naive about Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland and the divide. Cannot believe the peace walls are still up! Our guide was great, but also spoke quite quickly when feeling passionate which made him a little tricky to keep up with.
Amazing tour! Must see in Belfast!

Black Taxi tour of The Troubles

5.00Our family did a personalized tour of The Troubles with Barry. While the subject matter is difficult, Barry did an excellent job transporting us around Belfast showing us all of the significant murals and memorial sites. He is certainly knowledgeable of the subject matter. He presented both sides well. He demonstrated an optimism for the future. Hotel pick up and drop off went smoothly, and he went beyond the allotted time for the tour. I would certainly recommend Barry for any future tours without reservation.
We learned a lot about...

5.00It’s loaded with history facts. More information than I could process. Although it’s not a fun activity, it was a fantastic tour. A must for at least older children and adults.
Excellent Experience Learning About the Troubles

An honest look at the past and hopeful look to the future

5.00Best tour ever! I learned so much about the troubles. I never expected to be moved by the struggles and the pain that are still very much a part of life today. It was amazing to hear the stories from someone who has lived through the times and continues to educate people so that we never forget. We (as a society in whole) tend to choose to forget and/or ignore pains that aren't our own. During this tour we got to briefly experience those pains but also the hope of the healing of a whole nation.
Great tour

5.00Fantastic tour. Barry was my guide and was very informative and interactive! He gives the full history back to the 1600s and had an impressive knowledge of the details. He took me to many of the murals and gave the history as well as personal experiences. Would definitely recommend! He also provided some great recommendations for other things to do around the city.
Barry is the craic. !!!🇮🇪
