This was such an educational, informative, and interesting tour. Kevin provided great insight as he explained the murals, walls/gates, neighborhoods, and peoples. Highly recommend!

Original driver neglected to pick us up on day/time planned, but after a call to the company another driver arrived to do the tour. Brian was very friendly and knowledgeable and made sure we got to see all the sights on the two hour itinerary. He shared a lot of information about the history and present situation in “Norn Iron” where my husband was born but hadn’t visited in decades. All in all a great tour.

Our flight was cancelled last minute and we couldn’t get to Belfast. We had to cancel our trip on the morning and got in contact to tell them. They refunded the deposit immediately which wasn’t expected by us but was really appreciated as we were already gutted we couldn’t get there. I had been in this tour before and it was excellent which is why I rebooked with them this time. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. They are easily contactable and really helpful.

We had an excellent experience, probably the best experience we had during our time in both Belfast and Dublin. Brendan was an excellent tour guide and made the tour very interesting and meaningful

It was such a nice way to learn Irish history coming from a younger generation that didn’t know that much about the troubles up the north

Brendan was our driver. We did the 2 hour murals tour. Brendan was friendly and knowledgeable, giving us his unique perspective on his experiences of the "troubles". Plenty of opportunities for photos, and we learned so much. Well worth the money. You get to see places in Belfast you would never normally see. Well worth it, great value for money. Would recommend the tour and Brendan in particular. Matt & Lorna

It was a somber and informative tour. I had a passing knowledge of the stife between the Protestants and Catholics, so it was good learning more about the subject. Our tour guide was also able to speak from his own direct experience from the Troubles. The guide and tour company were very flexible with their scheduling. I definitely recommend the tour.

A fellow traveller recommended the tour and we were not disappointed. We expected to see the famous murals and take a few picture which we did. But the tour guide explained the history (without it being a lecture or boring). We would recommend this tour to others.
