5.00Mickey was a fount of knowledge but made it real with personal details of events from the Conflicts over, especially, the last 100 years. I was close to tears from the heartbreak. He was also personable and made it thoroughly enjoyable. Well done!

5.00This was an excellent tour and so engaging to hear all about the (very recent) history from a person who lived through it all. Seeing the sights and hearing the stories told through the eyes of someone who experienced such a scary and horrific time in Derry’s past was the best way to learn about these events.
