    Belfast memories with Mick

    On June 9, 2025 our group of 8 toured Belfast with MicksTours and had one of the best excursions of our two week trip in the British Isles. There could not be a better guide than Mick. He not only took us to seldom visited locations in the beautiful Belfast countryside, he shared with us his insider perspective of Belfast, its history, and its communities. He added experiences we were not anticipating including his favorite fish and chips place for lunch and a stop at the Bushmills distillery. Don't miss the opportunity to visit the signing wall with Mick---it is a moving experience.

    Response from the operator: Hi Jerry, Wow thank you for the amazing review! It was a pleasure to have you guys on tour here in Belfast and show you the top attractions and best chip shop in Ireland. I hope you all had safe travels home and return soon to help me finish the excellent bottle of whiskey I kindly received from yourselves. Thank you for choosing me as your local guide and I look forward to greeting you on your next visit to Ireland. Michael Smith aka Mick 🍀

    Nice short visit

    Nice city to visit for a weekend. Titanic museum was the highlight of this trip. I got a good package deal from easyjet for a flight and a one night hotel stay.

    Response from the operator: Hi Jenan thank you for the top 5 star rating. Glad you enjoyed your visit to Belfast. Hopefully more guests will follow your lead.

    Belfast and Northern Ireland 2-day tour

    Mick provided my wife and I with a wonderful 2 day guided tour. Mick met us at the train station in Belfast on day 1 where we began our 4 hour city tour. Mick provided a wealth of information as we visited all the highlights of the city. On day 2 Mick picked us up at our Belfast hotel and guided us through the valleys of Northern Ireland on an active and informative tour, including stops at the “8th” wonder of the world, The Giant’s Causeway. Look no further, book with Mick for all your touring of Belfast and Northern Ireland.

    Response from the operator: Hi John, thanks for the great review it was a pleasure to have you and Wendy on tour here in Northern Ireland for your 2 day stay. I hope you enjoy the rest of your vacation in Ireland. Safe travels from Mickstours.com

    Mick is exceptional

    Mick met my husband and I at our cruise ship port. He was professional as well as friendly and personal. He was with us for 9 hours and we enjoyed every moment. He knows Northern Island/ Belfast history perfectly. He also knows his way around the whole area. Don't hesitate to hire Michael.

    Response from the operator: Hi Georgie, Thanks for the lovely review and top rating. It was a pleasure to have you guys on tour for your shore excursion in Belfast. I trust the rest of your cruise went well and look forward to greeting you both on your next visit to Northern Ireland. Thanks Michael Smith

    Excellent Tour and Service

    It was a fantastic day to Giant's Causeway and Bushmills. Michael is a delight to work with and a true professional. He was flexible to include a few necessary stops and cater to me as I had an injury. Michael managed to keep us informed and entertained from our tour of Bushmills to the Giant's Causeway. Michael was patient, knowledgeable, funny and a delight to have as our tour guide. We loved that Micheal had water and the beloved local snacks ready for us. I highly recommended Michael for any tour in Northern Ireland and booked him the next day (separate review). Carol and Rob from Toronto

    Response from the operator: Hi Carol and Rob, Great to hear from you guys. Thanks for the great review it was a pleasure to showcase Northern Ireland to you guys and I look forward to your return. I hope your knee is feeling better and my kids loved the maple syrup. Thank you so much. Safe travels till next time. Michael

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

    How much does Belfasts no.1 best shore excursion cost?

    +

    How long does Belfasts no.1 best shore excursion take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 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 Belfasts no.1 best shore excursion worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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.

    Is Belfasts no.1 best shore excursion suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Belfasts no.1 best shore excursion?

    +

    Around 2 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Belfasts no.1 best shore excursion 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.

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.
