As a family we travelled to Belfast in Oct 2019 (been meaning to write this review for ages!) and our most recommended activity was to do the famous Black Taxi Tour. We were lucky enough to get Brendan as our driver and had the most incredible experience. He was so knowledgeable, informative and provided amazing insight into the past and present history of Belfast. It was one of the highlights of our trip. Could not recommend this more!!

Being a travel agent we booked the service with this company however they did not do everything as promised. We first had an issue with the transfer and then it turned out they did not purchase the entrance tickets as we agreed and more importantly paid for. That was a year ago but we are still waiting for our refund but the company does not seem to care about that all. Horrible and not client oriented at all!

My wife and I did the Game Of Thrones tour with Gerald McGlade for our honeymoon, and it was 100% the best day of our 2 weeks in Europe. He picked us up with a smile, a bag of snacks, and an unbelievable wealth of knowledge; not only about GoT, but also about Northern Ireland in general. The true GoT fans MUST do the ultimate tour. You'll get to see all of the 7 kingdoms and hear some truly behind the scenes knowledge. I don't want to give away any of his secrets...so trust us when we say, not only will you get a knowledgeable guide, you will get to spend the day with another TRUE fan. On top of it all, he's super easy to talk too, and makes sure you get all of the photos you could want. He'll even help take them! If you are a true fan of GoT, don't waste your time with any other tour!! Go with Gerald ,the KING IN THE NORTH....ern Ireland!

Only booked the Mural tour the day before visiting Belfast but so pleased that we did. Sean met us at the Titanic Museum where we had parked and gave us an amazing 2 hour eye-opening tour. Having grown up with a Belfast regularly in the news for the wrong reasons, Sean gave detailed explanations as we toured around the city. Very interesting tour, and a highlight of a visit to Belfast, but still quite sad to see the divisions that still exist in this historic city.

Mick took my Mam and I to see the peace wall and the murals (inc Shankill Road) before dropping us off at Crumlin Road Gaol. It was easily the best thing we did during our stay in Belfast. He was, funny, knowledgable and extremely professional. Having someone who had grown up in the area and could explain how the divide had effected people’s lives was the next level up from a regular tour. We even rang him again to get him to drop us at the airport! Thanks Mick - give him a bell whenever you’re in Belfast!
