5.00We had a brilliant afternoon on the gin jaunt, Dave was full of knowledge about the history of gin and Belfast, he made the tour fun and kept everything moving seamlessly which was quite a task while responsible for 19 people on the gin! Was a great way to meet other people and see our city at its best, try new gins and bars. We are looking forward to working our way through the tours, cocktail tour next on the list! Keep up the good work!
Well worth the money! Fun, interesting and gin!

5.00Sarah was a delight. She guided my husband and I through out the streets of Belfast on a food and whiskey tour. She took us to a local cheese shop and tried some incredible cheeses, visited some lovely pubs and tasted different drinks. I am more of a tea drinker so was given the option of a cup of tea if I wished! I did try some whisky which was good. Sarah pointed out lots of historical buildings and facts and we had a lovely 3 hour tour. Highly recommended.
Fantastic!

5.00This was the perfect choice for our work Christmas do. The most delicious food, delicious drinks (to get us started) and a great tour guide who was knowledgeable, friendly and really good craic. Most of our colleagues had never experienced a Taste and Tour, and couldn't rate it highly enough! The Brunch tour was a perfect start to our day in Belfast. Our next tour together will have to be the Gin Jaunt!
We highly recommend Taste & Tour in Belfast

5.00Many compliments to Taste & Tour for their excellent “Belfast Food Trail” tour. Having enjoyed your 4-hour tour, we can now see why NCL offers this tour for their cruise passengers. Not only was the food exceptional, the sightseeing stops were also interesting and informative. Your guides Rachel and Rosie were wonderful and shared interesting stories on Belfast’s turbulent past and successful rebirth. Every food stop was tasty and special. Who would have known that the restaurant at City Hall served excellent sausage, egg & tomato sandwiches. Next up were the chocolate artisans, and I do mean artisans, at Co Couture for outstanding hot chocolate and candies. Then open-faced sandwiches and treats at Sawyers were wonderful (it’s a great store for treats to take home). Finally, we went to a pub for tasty seafood chowder or beef stew with wine or beer. All excellent! We highly recommend Taste & Tour of Belfast.
