This was a very interesting tour of some of the locations across Belfast that endured issues during the Troubles. Our guide Mark brought to life and provided a real human understand of what occurred and the impact the events had on the ordinary people of Befast
Mark the tour guide was brilliant. Really enjoyed the stories and his memories. Easy walking tour.Would recommend for folk to understand the 'troubles' and how affected the people living there.
This is a hugely interesting and topical tour, guiding you through the city centre of Belfast, outlining how the Troubles came about, how it escalated, what daily life was like in that period and what the situation is like now. Paul was an amazingly thorough guide full of knowledge and wit!, the time flew by. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour.
highly recommend for a first hand, well balanced and non judgmental tour and history of The Troubles. Paul was wonderfully engaging and informative his stories captivating yet horrifying. Easy walk and a great intro to City. This was our first tour on arrival in Belfast and allowed us a wonderful overview of locations and best way to navigate on our own later.
This was a fantastic tour led by someone who lived through those troubling times with a personal perspective, and not too political in nature. Interesting history from not that long ago. But important to hear and remember what the people of Belfast went through, and the effects of those events still linger to this day. Powerful.
Fantastic tour! Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended.
This is a very interesting tour. It was very informative and balanced qua approach, and at times also moving. Gerd and Frank
