From her conception in Belfast in the early 1900s, through her construction and launch, to her infamous maiden voyage and catastrophic demise.With plenty of time at leisure to explore the city, we strongly recommend the political “Black Taxi” tour (optional) to view the Peace Wall and infamous political murals. The drivers are locals and can explain what life was like in Belfast during the conflict of 1969 - 1998.Tonight we'll stay downtown, a most lively area with great pubs and restaurants catering to all tastes and budgets.

First 2 days and driver/guide (Freddy) were very good. Accommodations were fine. 3rd day was not so good. We spent virtually all day on the coach and had less than 3 hours in Galway.

Our tour guide could not have been more wonderful! Took us to many sites that were not even listed on the program and made special efforts to accommodate me traveling with small children. I wouldn't expect such care on a budget tour but I was pleasantly surprised.

This tour was amazing. Our driver/guide Freddie from Paddywagon tours was awesome and made the journey enjoyable. The Belfast and Derry days were eye-opening and educational. Both are beautiful cities despite their troubled pasts. The Black Taxi tour in Belfast is a must. The Black Taxi tour driver was very knowledgeable and so kind in answering all of our questions in full. A very special thank you to Rory our walking tour guide in Derry who explained some very difficult and complicated history to us in such a fair and honest manner. The accommodations in both cities were decent and there was ample of time to explore and we found good places to eat. The visits to the Carrick-a-rede rope bridge and the Giants Causeway were breathtaking. Also Galway city was just lovely. In hindsight, I wish I had booked a 6 day tour instead of a 3 day tour!!!
