Educational tour of Belfast

4.00Mal did a great job of providing context and personal perspective on our tour of Belfast. The tour itself was informative - but really dark. Because the Troubles were a difficult time to live through, it was a stark reminder of that time in Belfast and what really happened. We'd recommend the tour - but be ready for some somewhat harsh truth!
Must do tour.

5.00Danny H was excellent! A good tour is 10% content and 90% character of the tour guide. This tour is very authentic. The stories were gripping. 🙏
90 mins of history.

5.00Booked a tour for 5 adults today (4.12.21). Greeted by a lovely man called Sean (unsure if this is the correct spelling). Sean was so knowledgeable and a pleasure to be in his company for 90 mins. There was plenty of stops on the way to get out and take pictures. I can honestly say this is a must when visiting Belfast for the first time. I would recommend this company if you are looking for an excellent tour.
Ask for Davy to listen to his personal experience. Great tour guide!

5.00I really recommend the political tour. It was brilliant and very interesting. Our tour guide Davy was very informative and answered any questions that we had for him. Davy gave us his personal experience of living through the troubles. He was not biased and spoke about the two sides during that time. Learnt so much. A must do when visiting Belfast!!
Great information given on the history of 'the troubles'.

5.00My driver was a very nice guy, a taxi driver by trade, a Protestant in his fifties who'd seen his share of action. Very knowledgeable, and convincingly explaining the conflict as a deeply political one, albeit with sectarian overtones. His analyses and descriptions were so balanced that I know his religion only because at the tour's end I asked him. The tour started in the Shankill Road area, then moved to the wall and the Falls Rd, and concluded (at my request) with the main Protestant and Catholic cemeteries - very instructive. If you know Irish history, it's 50 quid very well spent.
Very knowledgeable

5.00Did not think to do this tour during our visit but it was recommended by our hotel the Grand Central and so glad we did. Our driver was so knowledgeable and impartial which gave us a great understanding of the troubles past and present, showing us the morals and explaining in great detail the whys and where’s. We actually felt a bit ignorant to the present situation as do not hear much in the mainstream news in England anymore so was not aware the wall was still up and the gates still operated. The driver was so good we gave £60 instead of £40.
