Shankill Road

Next on the tour is the visit to an area of Belfast City known as the Shankill. During the "Troubles" the Shankill was a centre of loyalist paramilitary activity, where the modern Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) and Ulster Defence Association (UDA) had its genesis. Loyalist paramilitary groups pledging allegiance to the British monarchy and to maintaining the partitioned 6 counties of Ireland known as Northern Ireland within the United Kingdom. Similar to the Falls area the Shankill is adorned with huge murals celebrating historical events, honouring people from the past some of whom from the local community. At all stops during the, in total, 90 minute tour our guests have ample opportunity to capture amazing images of the world’s largest outdoor art gallery. There will be lots out time spent out of the cab, the group size is so small the tour will be a very personalised experience. Your guide has personal stories and folklore to share.

Daithi (David) was the best tour guide we've ever seen. He's a natural storyteller and the entire journey was like a show. He gave us an excellent feel for Irish history as well as for modern day Ireland. Marcin gave us two extra stops. Some of the best photos I've taken of Ireland were from these viewpoints.
Terrific tour guide and terrific tour

This was everything you would want in a trip. Scenic, informative, varied and an incredible tour guide Elisa (I hope spelled that correctly) and driver J.P. Toss in couple of special insiders that spoke of the “Troubles” in Belfast that brought very real, personal stories and it was just a great experience from start to finish. Big, comfortable bus, expertly driven by J.P. with great stops. But we cannot express how much Elisa brought to the trip. Knowledge, humour, passion about all we were seeing and indeed we saw a true picture Belfast and Northern Ireland. These Canadian highly recommended it.!

The weather wasn't good so it seemed the whole trip went down hill. We got little information about what we was driving to see. The trip was very boring over all.
Amazing full day tour

What a great day out. The tour guide and driver were so helpful and informative. Loved hearing her stories and jokes. Had a great laugh and she shared so much with us all. The black cab was definitely an eye opener. Stories were told about their personal history and it was all told with such compassion. Truly enjoyable day.
