Belfast Black Taxi Tour : Privéreis door de geschiedenis

I have taken groups of college students on this tour and have always appreciated the historical relay and non-partisan view on the presentation. We have been toured by Robert both times and he has done a phenomenal job. Highly recommend for a thought provoking experience in Belfast

It was an amazing experience. Our driver/ guide Big Mike was great. He was extremely knowledgeable and unbiased. We learned a it and also gave us a lot to think about.

Wonderful tour highly recommended very informative Robert was the best guide

We did a Black Taxi Murals tour with Robert and it was well worth the experience. He had extensive knowledge about the history, politics, context, and nuances of the Troubles and of the factors that led to the strife. The tour lasted about an hour and a half and he took us to see the most famous murals in the Republican Falls Road and Unionist Shankill Road neighbourhoods, separated by 45-foot-high metal gates known as "peace walls" to this day. Yes, you can easily visit those locations on your own, as both neighbourhoods are a short walking distance from the city centre of Belfast. But as I like to say, it's not about the "where" but about the "why". Visiting as part of a black taxi tour with such an experienced and knowledgeable guide provided us with tons of invaluable insight to better understand the context around the wall art, murals, slogans, posters, and memorial sites. I must also commend Robert for managing to do the near-impossible and provide a balanced narrative that left us mostly guessing on his own leanings and views. Given how fresh and raw the wounds still are in this area, and how divisive the politics are and how much everyone disagrees on the narrative, that is not easy to do.

Terrific tour. Mark the owner was on holiday, and recommended Robert. An absolutely wonderful experience! Enthusiastic, personable, engaging. Robert went really deep on our questions, and managed to preserve a neutral outlook. We enjoyed a longer tour, unendingly interesting!

Tony was an excellent guide and incredibly knowledgeable and unbiased. Excellent tour.

This was a great way to get the history. Our guide and driver, Robert, was very informative and easy to travel with. He did not impart any of his personal opinions when sharing the information.

We did a Black Cab Tour in Belfast with my wife and kids and found it incredibly interesting and impactful. Our guide, Mark, brought real personal experience to the story, which made the history feel much more immediate and meaningful. The tour covered the Troubles while visiting the murals and the Peace Wall, giving us a much deeper understanding of what happened and how it affected people’s lives. Very interesting, memorable, and highly recommended.

A great value tour with flexible pick up and easy to arrange last minute. Big Mark's story telling was exceptionally engaging, informative, and hard hitting, can't recommend him and NI Black Taxi Tours highly enough. This has to be an essential experience for all tourists, as visiting Belfast today it so easy to overlook the very real tensions that still exist, and the pain and suffering this beautiful city continues to endure. Even as a regular visitor to Belfast, this tour was a fascinating eye opener. Thanks Big Mark - it was a pleasure to spend an hour and a half in your company!

Robert is a very pleasant guide who has an enormous knowledge of the whole of Irish history and knows how to sum it up beautifully and does not shy away from a subject. Every question received a sincere answer. Highly recommended!
