Two of the Richest Hours in My Life
Two-hour Black Taxi political/mural tour in Belfast. Ricky, my guide (also an historian and artist), was kind, friendly and extremely knowledgeable about the political history in Belfast and specifically the time known as “The Troubles”. He brought this period to life for me both academically and from personal experience. He provided me ample time to take photos and to ask questions. I feel very fortunate to have met this incredible man and to have him guide me through The Troubles of Belfast. I’m 79 years old - Ricky is the age of my oldest child. Unlike my children, he grew up in the midst of The Troubles … its encounters like this that tend to put life in perspective. Thank you Ricky!

We had a fantastic tour with Gerard! We learned so much and heard lots of interesting stories along the way. It was especially fun visiting the Game of Thrones filming locations and recreating some of the scenes ourselves. Gerard was friendly, entertaining, and made the whole experience really enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Black Cab Tour
Wonderful Belfast Tour with Ricky
We had a wonderful experience with Ricky, our black cab tour driver in Belfast. He was extremely knowledgeable and gave us so much fascinating information about the city, its history, and the local neighborhoods. Seeing the murals and hearing the stories and memories connected to the different neighborhoods made the tour especially meaningful and brought Belfast’s history to life.
Ricky was friendly, pleasant, and made the entire experience both informative and enjoyable. We truly appreciated his personal insights and the time he took to answer our questions. We would highly recommend Ricky to anyone visiting Belfast—he gave us a much deeper appreciation for the city and its people!
