    Exceeded every expectation

    We booked with Black Taxi Tours and from our initial contact, they were timely with communication and responses to our queries. The guide assigned to our group, Paul McConville, was fabulous. He went above and beyond. We were excited for the tour and it exceeded our expectations.

    Outstanding Tour & Guide

    My wife & I have been fortunate to take a number of guided tours during our travels and we both felt that this was one of the guided tours. A key element was our guide Paul MC, who was a blend of a teacher, historian, newly found friend & tour guide . Having someone who lived during this period put a human face on the history we were exposed to during our tour! Strongly recommend if you able to request Paul!

    Great experience

    Paul was fantastic and personlised the tour a little and found places I wanted to see as my Dad grew up there. He really showed us both sides of the troubles and made it extra special for me by finding the place where my dad lived and also memorial plaques of family we had lost in the troubles. Would highly recommend Paul and this company. Thanks for making our time in Belfast extra special.

    Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belfast.

    How much does Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $109 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 Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour 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 Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 142 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 Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour?

    +

    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 Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour 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 Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour?

    +

    Around 50 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 Award Winning Exclusive 2 Hr Private Belfast Black Taxi Cab Tour 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.
