5.00Paul was so knowledgeable and such an interesting and enthusiastic person. He truly showed you how it felt to live in the time during the troubles and gave a rich history alongside. He made us feel so welcome and made the experience so immersive with the stops and photos. I would highly recommend.
Great tour

5.00We booked the 90 min mural and political tour. Came in with very superficial knowledge of the troubles and left with a much better understanding. Highly recommend this tour to anyone with an interest in the history of the region. Also great if you want to get out of the city center and see some neighborhoods.

5.00Our guide Paul was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. He’s lived through the most tumultuous period of Belfast history and his tour really brought this out in vivid detail. As a Brit growing up in the 80’s my version of history was so one-sided and seen through the optics of the. British establishment.
Wonderful History Tour!

5.00We had an absolutely amazing experience with Paul! He was very informative and answered all of our questions. We got a wonderful overview of the history as well as his personal experiences growing up in West Belfast. Also the owners of the company were super responsive and helpful after we needed to change our pick up location. Well worth the price and such a good way to learn. I have studied the Peace process in NI for many years and I still learned new things!
Informative and essential for today.

5.00Paul was an incredible guide, sharing both sides of The Troubles, explaining the political and religious effects on everyone involved, and all the history we could ask for. We saw both sides of the walls, the gate, important murals and memorial sites. He gave us time to leave the cab and look around, and read all the information. Highly recommend if you have any interest of the historical significance of Northern Ireland.
