Hometown Tours Belfast - Belfast

We did the walking tour of the Titanic area and slipway on Thursday. The tour guides Steven & Declan were well organised, with earphones so we could still hear them if we weren't standing beside them. They were very informative and engaging. They told stories and made things relevant to our tour group age and interests. They answered all our questions too. We had a great time and learned a lot of new information about the Titanic. Would highly recommend

Amazing Tour with Steven – Highly Recommended!
We had an incredible experience touring Belfast with Steven. From the moment we met him, it was clear we were in great hands. He's extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our trip special.

We visited the Giant’s Causeway, and throughout the journey, Steven shared fascinating insights into Irish history that really enriched the experience. Even though it was raining, he came prepared with umbrellas and made sure we were comfortable throughout the day.

Steven also gave us excellent food recommendations—every place he suggested was fantastic. What truly stood out was how he personalized the tour. Even after our official tour time was over, he kindly took my dad to the Botanical Gardens because he knew how much my dad loves flowers and trees. That small gesture meant a lot to us.

His car was spotless, he was always punctual, and we genuinely felt lucky to have found him. Our trip wouldn’t have been the same without Steven. He’s not just a great tour guide—he’s a great person. Don’t hesitate to book with him!

We took part in Stephen’s walking tour today and thoroughly enjoyed it. He had a wealth of knowledge on the area, its history and he was very interesting. The tour was most comprehensive and covered a number of stops around the titanic quarter including access to The Titanic Hotel. We had an opportunity to step back in time. Our grouping was made up of blind/visually impaired people and we were very impressed with how Stephen was able to adapt and accommodate our specific needs for us to get the most out of the tour. I would recommend this walking tour. You will not be disappointed - 5 stars !

A fantastic morning spent with Steven. My mother & I had a lovely walking tour around Belfast dock learning the history of Titanic, Olympic & how/where they were built.
I really enjoyed visiting HMS Caroline, the last remaining ship from the WW1 Battle of Jutland.
We both aim to visit the original Harland & Wolff headquarters again. Steven brought us around the now restored to original style rooms where the Titanic was designed. The headquarters are just beautiful to have a coffee is, hours could be spent reading all the bits displayed through.
Thank you so much Steven for being so informative & friendly. We throughly enjoyed ourselves. I fully recommend this walking tour.

A fantastic bicycle tour with Steven. As a family of four we enjoyed and appreciated Steven’s depth and breath of knowledge, taking in the Titanic quarter & docks, Peace Walls, East Belfast…. A lovely bloke too, I would highly recommend if you’re thinking of taking a tour.

My wife and I are both slightly anxious if inquisitive Londoners, and were both a little hesitant about taking a “Troubles” tour. We needn’t have been nervous, though. Steve, brought up in the 1960s and 70s and still living in east Belfast, is a safe pair of hands. More than that, he is a very wise, worldly and informed guide to the city. He has a deep and broad knowledge of the history of the Belfast economy, politics and its civic strife; as he took us from urban battle scene to urban battle scene, he reeled off facts and figures with dispassion and sympathy. The tour was meant to last 2.5 hours but it was so engrossing that the four of us only parted company with him a good hour later than that. I once read a book by Primo Levi about the Holocaust. His justification for staring into the abyss was that he wanted it to be a “recipe for being human”. Steve may not be a writer like Primo Levi but with his clear-eyed idealism and sympathy with the thousands of innocent victims on both sides of the sectarian divide, he is similarly prescriptive and is playing his part in making the world a slightly better place. When we return to Belfast to do a cycle tour or see the many other sights, we will certainly engage Steve again. Brilliant.
