Overview

Join me on this guaranteed small group tour of maximum 9 people, as the perfect introduction to the city.
I prioritise an exclusive experience with more interaction between group and guide and where you are encouraged to ask questions.
While not ignoring the "Troubles", there is so much more to this beautiful city and my tour's main focus is on the history, culture and politics of my home town and country.
* group discounts available. Please enquire.
* Learn about Belfast’s history during a guided walking
tour
* We walk at a gentle pace on a flat surface.
* Rest stops available
* Learn the secrets hidden within the old lanes and buildings
* Enjoy a small group
* Not getting lost: the benefit from having a local born guide to navigate
* Sundays are available and priced per group as a private tour only

City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
