We had an amazing excursion provided by Belfast Tours NI. As a travel professional, I diligently research vendors and this one did not disappoint. Murat and Nicole provided excellent pre-trip communication and even changed our reservation at the last minute to accommodate our smaller group. Day of we were met by Michael and J.P. who were amazing guides and kept our group entertained. We loved exploring the northern coast of Ireland and enjoyed the history of Belfast they provided as well. The vehicles were clean and comfortable and the extra touches of bottled water and a bag of crisps, was a nice touch! I won't hesitate to recommend Belfast Tours NI to other clients or travel advisors.

We booked this private excursion because we were traveling with my 86 year old, who unexpectantly needed to use a wheelchair. Michael our guide/driver met just outside the cruise ship and we boarded a large Mercedes van with plenty of room for all 4 of us plus wheelchair. Mike told us stories and history using props in his vehicle. Mike went out of his way to make sure that my dad was comfortable and safe during our journey. We went to the Dark Hedges, Up to the cliffs, and of course Giants Causeway. the drive was long, but the views were beautiful and Mike filled us in with some wonderful stories. Highly recommend Mike and this tour!! Well worth the investment!! It was the best tour of our trip!!

This excursion was very good. We get to see several sights on our private van and our driver, Ossie was very good! Ossie provided us informed about the sights and he stop in areas that gave us great views!! He even took us to the Titanic museum which was an extra trip!

Michael was our guide and we had the best day in Belfast. We were on a cruise and didn’t care for any of the excursions offered. We only had six hours, but Michael made sure we saw the “must haves” and made it back to our ship with plenty of time. We traveled as a family with the youngest being 7 and the oldest being 71 - everyone agreed it was the best part of our trip. The van was comfortable for everyone and the snacks/waters were a nice touch. Michael was charming and informative and patiently answered all of our questions. My only regret was that we couldn’t do the full day tour. If you’re on the fence about hiring this company - do it. I promise you will have a great day!

Giants Causeway is a must see. Our driver took us past amazing scenery and even to some Geo Cache finds. We had a great time.

We enjoyed a fantastic day touring around the north of Ireland. Belfast Tours NI were extremely professional, and considerate, and also shared lots of information about life in the north. They went out of their way to make certain we could have all the special photo ops we wanted. Navigating the curvy narrow roads in a large luxury vehicle would have been challenging for us and we would have missed so much of the beautiful scenery. Leaving the driving to Murat and Tom allowed us to relax and soak in all the lush beauty of the countryside and sea. We highly recommend their service.

Our driver was amazing! He showed us the sites with a personal touch and a sense of humor. The coast line of Northern Ireland is simply stunning. I have been on this route numerous times, but, by far, today was my favorite experience. A definite must if you are in the area this is the way to go!

Our group of 8 had a fabulous customized excursion with Belfast tours. Michael was an excellent tour guide, picking us up at the ship early and dropping us off safely after a wonderful day. He shared a wealth of information, history and Irish humor at every stop. We saw everything on our wish list and much more. One of the best trips we have ever had. Highly recommend this company.

This excursion was the best excursion we have ever done anywhere. Murat picked us up at the ship early in the morning and took us to all the attractions we wanted to see as well as other places that we would have never known about otherwise. He talked to us about what kinds of things we wanted to see and then tailored the day to fit our preferences. He also took us to a little restaurant for the best fish and chips we had anywhere. One of the best things was that we were able to spend as much or as little time as we wanted and weren't held to a shore excursion schedule. We also chose to just take the excursion with my husband and I so we truly had a tour based on what we wanted to do. Murat and his tour company were the absolute best find (recommended by friends who had used him as well) and we have already recommended him to others who are looking for a one of a kind experience in Northern Ireland.
