Traveler reviews
An eye-opening, unbiased tour about the Troubles, followed by a really well produced Crumlin Road Gaol experience
We learned a lot on this tour. Tucker, our guide, was friendly and gave us an even-handed explanation of the troubles. We visited the murals, the peace wall, affected neighborhoods… it was a really sobering experience in some ways but so worthwhile. Then we went to the prison, which has a really well done self-guided tour. Lots of holographic presentations. Really excellent experience.
Very worthwhile and thought provoking
Very worthwhile and insightful. Especially returning to Belfast after having lived and studied in Belfast and leaving in 1988. Sincerely great to see many things have moved on and in time with education and time future generations will not go through what their forebears did. There is hope and hard work ahead. Thank you. Ian
Black taxi tours - a must experience for anyone visiting Belfast
Danny our driver, was an absolute font of knowledge. He provided a clear explanation of both viewpoints.
Black Taxi Belfast Tour and Crumlin Gaol Tour Combo
Our Black Cab Tour of Belfast was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip to Ireland. Our guide, Bran, grew up during the Troubles and shared not only the history of the Falls Road, Shankill Road, Peace Walls and memorials, but his own extraordinary experiences of living through that time. Bran’s family background gave him a very personal perspective on both sides of the divide, and hearing his childhood memories while standing in the actual streets where these events happened was incredibly powerful. He was open, engaging and happy to answer all our questions without making the tour feel like a history lecture. We also added the Crumlin Road Gaol tour to our Black Cab experience, which was well worth doing and complemented the tour perfectly Seeing the murals and memorials, hearing the stories behind them and signing the Peace Wall was something we won’t forget. If you want to understand Belfast beyond the usual tourist sights, we would highly recommend this tour.
Insightful and thought provoking look at recent histories
Exceptional tour. Very insightful & thought provoking. The information issued & gleaned about the Troubles was so interesting and gave a real insight into this ongoing history. The gaol tour is very well done and a coffee, tasting & cake in Wing A - now occupied by O’Connells Distillery was the perfect end to a “must see” experience.
