Disse billeder af IRA, UVF vægmalerier er ofte blinker rundt i verden på nyhedsbreve eller bruges som en baggrund, når interviewe folk. De blev brugt som værktøj til at vise deres samfunds historie og politiske synspunkter og blev brugt som en metode til at markere deres område.

Six of us had a fantastic tour with Ricky last Saturday. He was very knowledgeable and gave us a better insight into the history of 'the Troubles'. We had wanted to do this tour for some time and we weren't disappointed. It was excellent. Thank you Ricky.
An exceptional tour with Brendan who was above and beyond. We’ve been to Belfast many times and love our Irish history - but we still learnt lots more thanks to Brendan. Picked up exactly on time from our hotel with a text from Brendan when he was outside. No problems at all. Stress free! The tour was at a steady pace and we certainly didn’t feel rushed. Plenty of time to ask questions and brilliant explanations. Great fun too with plenty of laughter and craic. Our 13 year old son was in his element. Booking via the website was efficient and easy and the pre and post booking support via WhatsApp and email was prompt, efficient and friendly. A very professional and highly efficient company. Messages were responded to promptly and helpfully. All in all the title says it all….. what a tour! Thanks so much Brendan and blacktaxitours.com
This was a tour recommended to us. We are so very glad to have done it. We had the AMAZING Brendan. His depth of knowledge was incredible. He took us on a journey to the past and provided a non-biased view of a world that was uncertain and violent. He explained the Peace Gates still close at night, even today. The wall that separates the Catholics from the Protestants is still there. The murals, the Peace Wall the headquarters of Sinn Féin... all were visited. Brendan explained each one and the part they played. Key historical sites were visited on the Protestants side as well, so a very balanced tour was provided. Brendan answered every question we had. He constantly asked if we were ok and we asked if he was OK too. You will hear some pretty harrowing stories that occurred during The Troubles. Highly recommend this tour, and I hope you get Brendan! He's a legend!
We were a group of 18 people that booked at the last minute. Our 3 guides were phenomenal. Our tour was beyond amazing. It was honest, heartfelt and emotional. A visit to Belfast MUST include this Black Taxi Tour. Thank you for making our experience of Belfast even more memorable
Unbelievable tour with Brendan... Great informative insight to the past with some great personal experiences explained ... Would definitely do again! Thank you Brendan
5 out of 5. Great experience on the tour. The guys had so much knowledge and experience to share which was done with respect to all. Would recommend to anyone.
Review for Tony – A Tour to Remember Tony was our driver, and from the moment he greeted us—punctual and exactly where he said he’d be—we knew we were in good hands. What followed wasn’t just a tour, but a deeply moving introduction to the city’s past and present. Tony’s explanations were thorough and heartfelt, weaving together the events that shaped the region with clarity and compassion. His passion was palpable as he guided us through the highlights, not just recounting what happened, but exploring why it happened and how such conflicts might be prevented—not only here, but across the world. It was more than sightseeing; it was a lesson in empathy, history, and hope. Thanks again- Greg and Warren
It was interesting. If I had more time I would have done a walking tour probably because you get more info for your pound, because walking tours last three hrs and are cheaper.
Really informative and the guide Brendan, was so knowledgeable. He knew his stuff and the area and gave insights into the troubles and the political history.
Big thank you to Brendan who did our tour. An eye opener to Ireland’s political history. The mural’s were an amazing expression.
