Wonderful tour
We had a wonderful time on this tour. Learned a lot we didn't know before and it was heartbreaking to hear first hand account of what occurred but also liked the positive attitude for the future. Answered our many questions. Our guide was really helpful with the two of us with mobility issues.
via Viator
Highly recommended
If you want to understand the history of Belfast Troubles from someone that was there, experienced very personal and deep tragedy and continues to live with the consequences of the tensions in today's world, this is a great tour. George tells the story in way you can't help but be profoundly moved by imagining the experience. This tour will stay with me for the rest of my life.

An Unforgettable Ride Through History
If you only do one thing in Belfast, make it the Peace Walls Tour and don’t be surprised if you leave with a completely different perspective on the city. Kevin delivered a masterclass on the Ireland/British conflict, the kind of detailed, nuanced insight you won’t find in any guidebook, including eye-opening and controversial history we never would have discovered on our own. His storytelling genuinely moved us. There were moments that stopped us in our tracks, bringing real humanity to events that could easily feel distant or abstract. And through it all, he was laugh-out-loud funny, warm, and genuinely passionate about sharing Belfast’s story honestly and completely. You could tell this wasn’t just a job for him. By the end of the tour, we felt like we actually understood what we were seeing — the murals, the walls, the neighborhoods — in a way that was both humbling and profound. Kevin, you were an absolute gem. Highest possible recommendation; don’t miss this tour!
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for your feedback Allison we’re really glad you enjoyed the tour. We will make sure to pass your feedback onto Kevin!

A really moving and informative tour
This was a fantastic overview of the troubles. Our tour guide, Brendan, shared his personal experiences as he drove us around some key sites in both the Catholic and Protestant areas of Belfast. The IRA memorial and the peace wall were particularly moving. It really deepen my understanding of what went on in Northern Ireland, and what’s still going on?
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for your feedback Cynthia we’re really glad you enjoyed the tour. We will make sure to pass your feedback onto Brendan!

2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belfast.
How much does 2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls cost?
+
Prices start at $116 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Belfast usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Belfast is not rushed.
Is 2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 246 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Belfast, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls?
+
Around 86 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Belfast can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Belfast and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 Hour Private Belfast Taxi Cab Tour of Troubles & Peace walls start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Belfast within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Belfast?
+
On Outty we rank every Belfast experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include A History of Terror - Belfast City Centre Walking Tour, Belfast Black Taxi Tour: Private Journey Through History, Belfast's Political Mural Taxi Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Belfast?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Belfast?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
