Itinerario
Ammira il bellissimo municipio del 1906 e senti parlare dei raduni politici e del suo ruolo durante l'istituzione dello stato dell'Irlanda del Nord, delle statue e visita il Titanic Memorial Garden.
Visita le famose Slipways dove è stato costruito il Titanic. Ascolta come è stata costruita la nave più grande nel 1912, il motivo del suo affondamento, i soccorsi e i passeggeri a bordo. Visitiamo il Titanic Hotel, gli uffici rinnovati di Harland e Wolff ora un meraviglioso museo del patrimonio.
Questo splendido edificio in cima a una collina inaugurato nel 1932 gode di una splendida vista su Belfast ed è sede del governo NI. Una cornice meravigliosa per sentire di più sulla formazione dell'Irlanda del Nord come stato. Ascolta perché l'edificio è stato dipinto di nero durante la seconda guerra mondiale e scatta una foto mentre percorriamo il vialetto alberato di 1 miglio.
Percorri le Falls e Shankhill Roads e ammira i murales politici e i muri di pace che separano le comunità protestanti e cattoliche. Comprendere gli affascinanti eventi del decennio che portò alla divisione dell'Irlanda nel 1921 e la conseguente guerra civile che andò dal 1969 al 1998 (i Problemi). Ascolta un commento equilibrato sul conflitto strada per strada tra l'IRA, i gruppi paramilitari lealisti e l'esercito britannico. Opportunità fotografiche.
Questo splendido edificio in mattoni rossi aperto dalla regina Vittoria nel 1849 ha un bel parco. Ascolta il ruolo che ha svolto durante il processo di pace. L'Università è accanto al Giardino Botanico.
Visitate i Giardini Botanici con la bellissima Palm House di vetro sempre piena di colore e le spettacolari aiuole colorate in mostra durante il rametto e l'estate.
Questo orologio pendente di Belfast si trova nel punto in cui Belfast si è formata e ha imparato come il piccolo villaggio lungo il fiume ha preso il nome dal gaelico Beal Feirste.
Avvicinati alla scultura Big Fish e ascolta la storia della rigenerazione del fiume Lagan da un fiume funzionante con barche a vela e cantieri di carbone e ora senti parlare del moderno fiume pulito lungo il Maritime Mile ora uno dei principali sviluppi del lungomare europeo. Tieni d'occhio Sammy il Sigillo.

Steven was an excellent tour guy. He had a agenda and showed us all of the important sites in Belfast.
Steven was a fantastic guide who provided us with a unique experience. He tailored the tour to meet our interests. His knowledge and his passion was great! Would highly recommend Steven to anyone visiting Belfast! From the four Aussies!
Aww. Thanks so much Adrian and the other 3 Aussies. We were delighted to guide you and your friends on a private driving tour showing the Best of Belfast. Was great to show you the political murals, Titanic Quarter and Van Morrison sight. Safe travels.
Steven was an absolute joy to be around. Had fantastic and intimate knowledge of the history of the troubles, and went out of his way to ensure we got a look at everything we wanted to. We even saw a Unionist Marching Band!
We had such a great time on our tour with Steven and Oliver. So informative! I would definitely recommend anyone coming to Belfast to book.
Ah Thanks Ali glad you enjoyed the tour
Such a lovely experience. Steven very kindly gave me a short private tour of the peace gates and Shankill area when I was on a tight schedule. He was so friendly and knowledgeable, answered all my questions, and explained the history really clearly despite us only having about half an hour. This ended up being one of the highlights of my trip. Thank you Steven! - Shervone not Siobhan 🤣
Myself and my partner did a troubles tour this weekend and we cannot recommend Stephen enough. The tour was highly informative and great value for money as it offered a lot more than other tours we were quoted for. Stephen was a great guide and answered all of our questions in great detail. We will definitely be recommending this tour to our friends and family.
Many thanks for the review and glad you enjoyed the Troubles Taxi Tour
We had a great tour with Stephen! Packed with history and great perspective from over 50 years in Belfast. Stephen is super flexible and molds the tour to your interests and essentially customizes on the fly. His vehicle is comfortable and we saw everything we wanted to see and with an in depth history and explanation. Do not hesitate to book. You will not be disappointed in the least!
David and Bobbie - Thanks so much for reviewing the Best of Belfast driving tour. It was a great pleasure guding you given you had read up on Belfast. The book i recommended was by Ferghal Cochrane- Belfast - A city of its people.
Steven was a super tour guide - explained the history in enough depth that it was very informative without being overwhelming! He was also very accommodating when one of our party had childcare issues and had to bring a 1.5yr old who even needed changed mid tour - he was very kind and thoughtful and would thoroughly recommend the tour to anyone!
Thanks so much Laura - Great to have all four of you along - Joni got the grips with opening the door. Take care

Our journey kicked off with a smooth drive, allowing us to hop out and immerse ourselves in a multitude of breathtaking sights. Steven's wealth of knowledge was nothing short of impressive—he filled our tour with fascinating stories and intriguing facts. Every stop we made unveiled another layer of Belfast's rich history, transforming our experience into a captivating adventure.
Lisa - Wonderful to hear your comments about the Best of Belfast Driving Tour of Belfast. Really enjoyed your company and hope the rest of your trip is great. We are holidaying in SW Donegal.Amazing in the sun
Steven provided an excellent tour of Belfast from a very balanced perspective. He spent dedicated time on either side of the peace wall detailing the experience of people living in each location. He would stop at important locations and we’d all get out and have a chat. We never felt rushed at any location and it didn’t feel like a lecture- he was happy to have a dialogue and answer any questions. We were very impressed with the depth of his knowledge and clear passion for a peaceful future. Beyond this he was a very lovely man to spend time with due to his cheery and upbeat personality. At the end of the tour he offered some great recommendations on other sites in Belfast and dropped us off wherever was convenient for us. Overall this was the highlight of our trip to Belfast and we’d strongly recommend others to book with Steven!!
Aww Bethany - I am soooo pleased you were pleased with the Best of Belfast Driving Tour - A wonderful city indeed. You were great company. Steven
