Best 3 days I could have imagined! - Fantastic guides and there is no cheaper way to see the best parts of Belfast Hopping on and off the bus! 2 days for $25 was great deal - I would recommend it to anyone. I did a total of 3 days to enjoy all the stops! It was unbelievable..Loved it.

Good way to find out basics and distances twixt tourist must do’s - Our driver and guide Mike/Mick was excellent and very welcoming. Much better than an earpiece any day! Good value for money although we didn’t get full use due to Marathon…didn’t know it was on beforehand. Very good for getting bearings of city and cheapest taxi in town too.

Well done Ann - We had Noel the Driver and Ann the guide. They did a fantastic job and Ann was particularly informative for the whole trip. Much better than the guide we had later with another bus company who only told us a fifth of what Ann said. Well done to her and Noel who slowed down often to allow photos to be taken thanks again

Excellent staff and a great way to see the city - Excellent tour with host Stephen and driver Gary!! Stephen was so knowledgable and funny! I’ve been on many of these Hop-on Hop-off busses across Europe but this was by far the most entertaining! Laughs were had all round, many stories shared by Stephen and an overall excellent experience!! A fantastic way to see the city but Stephen made this outstanding!!

Best Belfast Overview! - Great overview of the history of Belfast. We hit a 2 day ticket and used the first trip around to get our bearings and then plotted our stops for the rest of the day and on the second day.
