Traveler reviews
Okay
I was told the international bus was leaving at 1.40 however it was gone and we were directed to a bus without the audio option I had family over from Germany it was disappointing for them as they were unable to understand the talk
Easy way to preview Belfast
We arrived to Belfast via cruise ship. The ship offers a shuttle ($15USD) to the town center, where the HOHO buses meet. I recommend this activity for those wanting a small taste of what is Belfast. Our driver was very informative. The stops aren't automatic. You must press a button in order for the driver pull over at the next stop.
Great experiment recommend 2 day ticket
Bought the 2 day ticket - used the first day to really just get our bearings of the city. Catherine was excellent as a guide. On day 2 we used it more to hop on hop off and we had Mick twice who brought a slightly different perspective to the tour. Great value for money
Brilliant
Catherine our guide and driver was amazing, as well as driving the bus her knowledge of Belfast and her delivery of the commentary was absolutely superb, she was brilliant!! Thank you Catherine for making that a memorable afternoon, so well done!!
