A great way to see the true Belfast. First hop off at Titanic Experience and 3 hours later hopped back on to see the rest of the city. The guides were all very helpful and considerate
Had a fantastic time on the hop on / off bus today in Belfast. Great banter and excellent informative host. We enjoyed it so much we went round a second time!
Our guide was an excellent driver, and we were very impressed with his skillful maneuvering in traffic. However, he spoke too close to the microphone, which caused the audio to be over-modulated and difficult to understand throughout the ride. Since we were on the top deck, it wasn’t easy to mention this to him at the time. Thank you for checking in.
On 2 out of 3 of the buses I was on it was nearly impossible to hear the guide from the upper deck of the bus. It wasn't clearly explained how to indicate you wanted off at a certain stop. The amount I spent would have been less if I'd just used the city buses to get where I wanted to go (and I wouldn't have missed much of the "guided info" since the audio was hard to hear anyway). Overall, for my money, not worth it, in my opinion. I'd be hard pressed to do this again.
The route the bus took was very good, the lady that provided the commentary was very knowledgeable and provided great references
Great, plus we could listen to the version in our language. On the other hand, it should differentiate itself from the other companies, because there's a lot of confusion.

It was super easy to get tickets online and right to my phone through the Headout app. Our guide gave us many interesting facts and a good history lesson about Belfast. He threw in a few jokes as well which kept everyone entertained. We got off at the Titanic Museum for our first stop. When we were through we just walked across the street and got on the next bus for the rest of the tour. We waited no more than ten minutes. Great tour to get an overview of the city on your first day!
Emma our guide (and Gary) were brilliant. I go in these tours all round the world but this rates highly. I come from Belfast but have lived elsewhere for decades. I took my eldest daughter who lives in Holland on the tour with me. She and I learnt so much about the history of the city, good and bad. This was really great value. A must do. Highly recommended.
The HoHo bus covered all the sites within Belfast. The drivers and other staff were extremely helpful, courteous and funny. The recorded narrative played on the bus was informative and easy to listen to. The odd driver will do their own narrative which adds an (unbiased) personal touch. The stops were easy to locate.
Great way to learn and get around the city
Great value did full circle first day then choose where to get off second day Recommend for seeing Belfast
Very informative with lots of local knowledge
Comfortable and great detail provided
Great commentary. Lovely city so much "living history "
Lovely tour with a great guide made the trip more fun
Lisa was fabulous and informative and kept your attention. Also very helpful. Excellent guide
Learning more about the history.
Interesting content from guide
The commentary. Very informative. Could have done with knowing the departure time
The guide was incredible. His historic knowledge was amazing plus a wonderful sense of humor made the trip awesome
The driver was outstanding. He shared his personal experiences during the "troubles."
Well planned route and knowledgable commentary. Perfect!
The ones where the driver or any member did the commentary were better
Sound quality poor on bus. Was expecting headphones none offered.

I didnt have a lot of time in Belfast, so the bus was a great option to catch a few things I would otherwise miss. While I didn't use the 12hours for hop-on-hop-off, I saved my feet and fit in the highlights. I jumped on the bus at Titantic and went through the city and up past the murals and the Wall. Noel was a fantastic driver with a great sense of humour/sarcasm, he kept me laughing the whole time. He also - like a good wit - made some sharp commentary, which I really appreciated. I finished back in the city in time for a walking tour!
The trip was so informative. We went around twice. When we got off the coach for sightseeing, felt secure in knowing a coach would be on time to pick us up. Thank you
Help was on hand when boarding the bus. It would be great to have it travelling in both directions as I had to book a cab after visiting The Titanic on the second day as I didn't have the 1:5 hours to continue on as I had a flight in the afternoon.
Ticketing experience was excellent. The bus clean however, there was times I could not hear the commentary due to ambient noise but overall I found the tour fascinating and interesting.
Hop on Hop off sevice did not disappoint. One circuit of the city to get our bearings and a flavour of its character and history. Excellent commentary by the bus driver. Covered all the main/interesting sites. Stopped off at Crumlin Road Gaol - truly educational. Took in a tour of the City Hall too. Need more than a day to use this service as there are so many other interesting places to hop off & visit. We'll be back.
It was comfy bus with very informative narration around the tour ,good value for money and best way to see and learn about the sights of Belfast
Was let down on the "hop on" aspect as I waited at the St George's Market stop for 15 minutes (not bad) but when the bus came along it just drove right past me didn't stop to let me on. I had to walk all the way to the first stop to board there which defeats the purpose. The tour was good once I managed to get on it.
Don was the best guide/driver ever Very informative and funny Highly recommended
It was very interesting and covered many areas of Belfast
Terrific guide. Jerry? Irlands history, the hatred.turmoil, famine, everything...
Couldn't hear any of the audio which was most of the point of the tour
The guides on the bus were nice and funny persons. Thanks for the entertainment
Poor communication. One of the main stops in the Titanic Quarterwas out of action due to a diversion but there was nothing posted at the stop or in the app to say so or where to go even though it had apparently been the case for some time.
The busses only picking up until 4 in a busy city seems wrong.
The comentary on the bus was just a recorded description, I could accept this if i was given the info of which bus stop was coming up next a lot of passengers pressed the bell for the bus to stop which it did not. Alogether a very poor experience and one I will advise any one to keep away from.
We had two experiences - the first was difficult for us due to the noise of the bus engine - as we were sitting outside on the commentary was drowned out by the engine noise. However, our second experience ( sitting upstairs on the near side) was EXCELLENT. RODNEY was our Tour Guide and he was amazing- great informative commentary, lovely sense of humour and concern about passenger safety.
Enjoyed the hop on hop off bus experience. Felt like it was the best way to see different parts of the city. All the drivers were informative tour guides. Had a particularly good experience with Don with his knowledge and fascinating stories.
