Black Cab history tours of Belfast
Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom (UK)
Last updated: 10 February, 2024
There’s far more to Belfast than The Troubles, but that doesn’t mean the city’s chequered past should be forgotten. If you’re curious about Belfast’s political history, the best way to learn about it is on a black cab tour around the city.
These tours are led by people who lived through The Troubles, and have a unique insight into that tumultuous period of time.
They’ll share personal stories that can’t be found in any history book, and tell the tales behind the city’s unique political murals, as well as visiting areas of the city you might not choose to visit independently, including the Peace Wall, separating Shanklin Road and The Falls.
