Moving and insightful tour of troubled times

5.00Excellent tour and insights into the troubled time Belfast has seen. Our tour guide Ricky was excellent and his first hand experience of growing up through the period and being caught up in the fighting was really personal and quite moving. It gave us a really unique insight into what it must have been like to live through the turmoil. Ricky had compassion for both sides and a really unique personal story. Our family of three generations (grandparents, adult kids, and kids/teens) loved this and it was very helpful for all 7 of us to be driven round in the van to see the different parts of Belfast impacted by the troubles.
Two thumbs up

Black cab tour with Ricky

5.00Our family was picked up directly in front of the hotel by Ricky, who warmly greeted us. He is an extremely knowledgeable guide with a deeper understanding that comes with someone who grew up and lived through the troubles. Ricky patiently answered all of our questions. This was one of the best small group tours I have ever experienced.
Insightful and informative

Jared Made Our Day!

5.00Just topped our list of neatest experiences. Jared was fantastic ~ kind, professional, personable, and above all knowledgeable! Took us to all the key Troubles landmarks, both sides, and introduced us, historically, to the major figures. Everything in the details and more. This tour is more than just a tourist box to be checked, it’s emotional and powerful!
Excellent tour with Black Taxi Tours and incredibly knowledgeable Ricky

5.00My sister & I had a 2 hour tour with Ricky which was incredibly informative and moving. He was very knowledgeable explaining the history of Ireland going back over the past 800 years, giving context to the Troubles which ravaged the 6 counties of Northern Ireland from the late 1960’s to the Peace Deal at Easter 1998. It was wonderful to see the now peaceful streets of Belfast, on both the Falls Road and the Shankhill Road.
Excellent tour - Ricky was outstanding.

5.00Ricky was our guide and did an outstanding job. He provided important context for the Troubles, right through the present day situation. A trip to Ireland would not be complete without a visit to Belfast and Troubles Cab Tour. Highly recommend using Ricky.
Informative tour !

Great Tour and History of the Irish Conflict in Belfast
Linda P,May 8, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00Gerard was able to relate very personal experiences related to the troubles between the Protestants and the Catholics. He shared a significant amount of information and showed many pictures of the conflict. We did not realize how separated Belfast still is. Driving through the divided areas was eye opening.
