Shore Excursions Belfast / Up To 5 Tours In 1 Day From Cruise Ship @ Micks Tours

Unbelievable, Mick was amazing. Punctuality ✔️ Bus comfort/temperature✔️ Knowledgeable ✔️ Passionate about his home ✔️ Compassionate ✔️ Cannot recommend this tour enough. Waterfalls, fishing villages, fabulous pub lunch, murial tour, Titanic experience. An amazing day.

I was looking forward to the Giants Causeway shore excursion with Micks Tours, which we had booked more than a month earlier. Unfortunately a storm in Ireland caused our cruise to cancel its Belfast stop while we were at Cork. Michael promptly refunded our deposit, which we greatly appreciated. Hoping to make it back one day!

Our driver knew the best timing for tour visits and was able to give us a good overview of Belfast and the surrounding area, including an interesting history of the Peace Wall. He told us what time to book our tickets for the Titanic Experience to maximize the timing of the rest of the day. Excellent day touring Belfast and the surrounding area. We had varied experiences including a trip to a Waterfall Nature Preserve, Giant's Causeway, Whiskey tasting, the Belfast Castle, Peace Wall and the Titanic Experience. Thank you Michael

Eddie could have been a very good guide if he left his political views at home. He was interesting, had a lot of knowledge and could be very funny, however, we are not interested in his political views. We do not need to hear what he thinks of climate change, COVID regulations or any other politically charged matter. Both of my 80 something parents who were along on the tour were hospitalized with COIVD and almost died, so his cavalier attitude was extremely insensitive. And while we acknowledge that we have a lot we don't know about the politics of Northern Ireland, we don't want to learn from someone obviously very angry who makes no bones about siding STRONGLY with one side over the other. He ranted and raved about the injustices of it for the last 90 mins of the tour which was very uncomfortable and not at all enjoyable. He needs to learn to read the room. We did not pay to listen to his political rantings, we wanted to see the countryside and a bit of Belfast. While the countryside was enjoyable we were very uncomfortable with the Belfast part of the tour and couldn't wait to get out of the vehicle and away from his anger.

This was an incredible tour - all due to Mick and his insightful history and explanations. I understand that a two person tour is more of an investment, but I really felt he allowed us to experience Belfast. This tour was well worth the time and money, and I recommend Mick without reservation!

Michael was the most amazing guide—the best I’ve been with in all the excursions I’ve experienced. He made sure to include anything we wanted to see and made sure to get us back to the ship in plenty of time. By the end of the excursion we felt like we had known Michael for years and our knowledge of Northern Ireland and its history was much greater. I can recommend Michael and this tour unequivocally. We had a WONDERFUL time and would book a tour with Michael any chance we got.

Did a shore excursion for 6 adults. And asked to add on a pub. The history he shared was fantastic, and that he was about my age and grew up in the times of the troubles made it all that more special as he shared his experiences. And he shared details of his life. But presented everything through a neutral lens so we got a full story. I felt like we saw all of Belfast and did so at a great pace. He had water and snacks for us so we could try his favorite chips(crisps). And he gave us great choices for our pub stop, but we picked Kelly’s from 1720 and it was a highlight of the 10 day cruise. Plus in addition to the troubles and related history we also saw the castle and the parliament buildings. Very customizable. Very knowledgeable. We all were very happy with the tour. Definitely book with Mick.

Holy cow, what a day! Tom was our guide and he was just delightful! We learned so much about the area and he customized our trip based on what we wanted to do! Thank you for a perfect day in Northern Ireland!

Our driver Ozzi was great… he was timely and went out of his way to really take us of the typical tourist path and gave us a great tour…. We had a blast.

Couldn’t have asked for a better tour and guide. Tom McCann drove us around all day and hit some key spots (waterfalls, beautiful countryside, Giants Causeway, a perfect side trip to Bushmills to make my husband’s day, and the Balfast Titanic Museum. I think we’ve made a friend for life from across the pond. Can’t recommend this group more, and I don’t think you’d be disappointed at all. Definitely a recommended excursion outside of the big cruise coaches.

Our cruise ship did not offer a Belfast tour that included the Giants Causeway and Belfast highlights, so we jumped at the opportunity to book Mick's 5-in-1 tour. Mick and the tour did not disappoint. We cannot say what we appreciated more -- the sites themselves, or Mick's insights, particularly about Belfast. The Giants Causeway was a wonder, Titanic Museum interesting, (the glens were mostly covered by mist and fog that morning), but we were moved by Mick's personal experience and perspectives about Belfast's neighborhoods, The Troubles, the Peace Walls, where things stand today and perhaps tomorrow as we visited Belfast sites. It is a long day, but a full and fulfilling one.

We went to Belfast with a cruise line but I wanted to get more experiences in than the cruise offered so I signed up for this tour. Our tour guide/driver did his very best to fit in all the experiences he could from the moment we got off the ship to when we had to be back on.

Mick gave a great custom tour to our party of six. We had taken an Antrim trip a couple of years ago and we wanted to revisit some places and see some new places. He knows of some great vistas and hiking trails that are absolutely gorgeous that made our day extra special and memorable.

The forest walk in the glen. It’s very peaceful and the waterfall was beautiful. Having the guide meet us at the bottom of the walk made it great Then seeing the peace wall was a special moment Thank you Michael

We have Mick as our tour guide. Mick took us to all the iconic spots for pictures. We completed our bucket list for Belfast. We wrote a peace message on the peace wall. We had the best Goujons fish and chicken and chips in Ireland. Mick is the best!!!

Micks Tour was super accommodating for our big group and provided a fun custom excursion for my big family. We were picked up at the port and back to the ship in plenty of time.

If you’re looking for private car service to the awesome things you wanna see, book Mick! We’ve used quite a few private car services to get to and from ports when we cruise. This has to be one of, if not the best we have used. Great knowledge of the area in both terms of commuting as well as history. Answered all our questions (I ask a lot). Was able to get out of long behind bathroom lines, less than half the cost for our party of 8 verses what the cruise ship costs, the car was super clean, easy to hear him, he provided sandwiches/snacks/drinks, etc. He communicated with my wife ahead of time about food allergies, communicated time expectations for meeting before and during, and even pulled over quite often for us to take pictures. One of the highlights of our cruise!

This tour was amazing. All of thr stops along the way were well worth it. The Giant's Causeway was beautiful, all the views were spectacular. The Antrim Coast waterfalls were lovely. We learned about Belfast history while driving through town and capped it all off at the Titanic museum. Mick was wonderful and tailors the tour to your interests, this is a must-book.
