Very informative.
Very good tour. This was my first tour in Belfast, and Stephen was excellent. Covered a lot of history in a short time, and a lot of the things about the history of Belfast he covered I ended up recognizing later when they would be mentioned, so you’ll at least have a decent knowledge about Belfast history and also the current day events in Belfast. Highly recommend.

Fantastic tour of Belfast
What a fantastic time we had with our guide! He did such a wonderful job of teaching us about Belfast and since he is a native he had an insider's perspective. We thoroughly enjoyed the 2 1/2 hour tour of Belfast. Please tell him also that the author my son mentioned is Adrian McKinty and the first book in the series is Cold Cold Ground. Thanks so much for a wonderful tour guide!!
Response from the operator: You guys were absolutely tremendous company and make guiding so very rewarding and enjoyable!! Have a brilliant time on the cruise. Stevie

A genuinely most knowledgeable guide
I lived in Belfast from 1980 until 1990 and was, what I thought, fairly familiar with it because I walked everywhere. Stevie chose a distinct landmark to begin the tour with, a place I was familiar with, and had told me more within the first 5 minutes of the tour than I had learned in my 10 years living near that spot. The rest of the tour followed a similar pattern, excellent nuggets of information delivered clearly and with context. I can wholeheartedly recommend Stevie as a most knowledgeable and even handed guide. Many thanks, Stevie!

Great insight into the history and culture of Belfast!
Coming from England and living in NI for the last 5 years, it’s great to understand the deeper history of Belfast and what has made it the place it is today. Great storytelling and knowledge from the guide Stevie. Thanks!

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belfast.
How much does This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture. cost?
+
Prices start at $27 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 This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture. 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 This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture. worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 30 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 This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture.?
+
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 This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture. 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 This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture.?
+
Around 11 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 This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture. 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.
What is included in This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture.?
+
Included: Fully insured. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture.?
+
Meet at the beautiful Big Fish by the River Lagan. Every local knows it so if need directions just ask. I will have a black shoulder bag and Tour Guides Northern Ireland name badge. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is This is Belfast Walking Tours. Our history, our culture. offered in?
+
