We are the only company in Belfast that can offer this combo tour that includes both the black taxi tour and the Crumlin Road Gaol Tour. We are the only Cab Tour company in Belfast that is jointly owned by Catholic and Protestant owners that give a fair, balanced and non-biased tour. Delve into the history of our wonderful city in one of our famous Black Taxi Tours.
Hear the stories behind our tumultuous history from our local guides.
Belfast was not on everyone’s list of cities to visit when we received global coverage of the violence here. Now, our city has lots to offer; from great hotels to Michelin Star restaurants, and a flourishing nightlife.
All of this can be enjoyed with some Belfast craic and banter.

4Peace Wall
The peace walls were designed to separate the Catholic (Nationalist) and Protestant (Unionist) populations in Belfast. The first ‘peace lines’ were erected, following the outbreak of violence in 1969 in Northern Ireland. They were built as temporary structures, meant to last only six months. Due to their effective nature, they were built higher, longer, and made permanent and are still here today. The peace walls are adorned with art and messages of hope from tourists.
