Easy access to places I wanted to see from bus stops. However very disappointed with the hour the bus finished at. Venues such as Crumlin rd gaol were still open but bus is finished at 4pm.

My granddaughter and I visited belfast City for the day. We arrived at George Best airport and walked to the Titanic Museum. The Museum is well worth the visit. All the staff and people from Belfast are so friendly and welcoming. If we asked any locals for directions or advice, they were helpful and pleasant. We purchased tickets to use the hop on/hop off bus, which is really good. Our Driver Mick, was competent and obviously very good at driving, whilst entertaining us all on his bus. When it was time to leave, we needed to purchase tickets for the 300 bus, which then took us to Belfast international airport. A 45 minute journey from the centre of Belfast. (Queen St) The staff at the information centre helped us with giving directions and purchasing our tickets as well. All in all, we both had a fantastic day and will certainly look at returning soon, so that we can explore more from this interesting, historic city.

Lots of good info and driver/guide very informative. Only slight problem was that the sound occasionally faded so we missed some bits, which may or may not have been important!

There were too many people on the bus and you could hardly see anything. Also there was less room because of the rain, the seats upstairs were occupied or wet and downstairs we were too many people to enjoy 100% the experience.

We loved the route, the bus itself, the narration and the music. Not the weather!!! Not your fault! The ticketing process was easy.

Everything was well organised as such but it wasn't quite clear where the bus stop was @ stop no 6 (St Georges Market) when one arrives from Lanyard Train station to join the tour from there. Otherwise it was a great experiense despite the rain on the day. We will definately come back and use the red busses again. Thank you.

Great route. Guides very well informed and those who added jokes really gave a great flavour of Belfast. Great value for money overall. Perhaps a heat fan for when it rains!

I bought 2 tickets online to be told by the driver that only half of the route could be done due to road closures because of 12th of July celebrations. So we only saw half of the route and then it ended.

Being able to travel around the city without having to drive. An inexpensive way to sightsee. The staff were very helpful. It would have been more helpful if the bus could have lindered a few more moments for those passengers who were not getting off the bus at a particular stop in order to take photos.

We loved the easyness of the buses. Timing where spot on. The drivers and guides are very knowledgeable about Belfast. Our guide Emma on the Wednesday was fantastic. If you do visit Belfast you need to book the Hop On Hop Off buses. You won't be disapointed.

Been here 20 years. 1st time I've done the city tour. Had my children over for the weekend and found the information and the tour very interesting. Definitely worthwhile

Initial bus dropped us off at Titanic Experience, where we stayed several hours. Commentary on this bus (sounded recorded) was not great, would have been good to know about headphone jacks in advance so we could hear the commentary better. However the bus we got on after the Titanic experience had a dedicated commentator who gave a great run down on the sites we saw and the history of the areas we passed through - he was thoroughly engrossing and his sense of humour had the passengers in stitches. The weather wasn't great, so we were content to just stay on board and enjoy the commentary.

All went well. Only problem was that from the top deck we struggled to hear the speaker (no headsets now). People were chatting near us.We've been before but we took some American visitors.

Brilliant, really handy for getting round the city, seeing places you maybe wouldn't know about or to get to attractions you've planned to see, and the commentary is first class!

The buses were clean and very well run and informative. The BEST part of the tour was having Alan as our driver/guide. He was very informative and able to tell wonderful stories that tied into the places on the tour. He knew how to explain how the troubles affected the city, in a caring, information way, that really made us feel the impact and healing that is happening. Plus he has a good sense of humor and can give the English a bit of a ribbing over football. We had a wonderful time! Thank you so very much!

We liked the tour guide Steve. He was informative and entertaining. He was with a driver Noel I think. He was excellent. We weren't so keen on the second driver/tour guide. He was older and very opinionated... and did go on and on and on about football! If i could have changed buses I would have!
