One of the best things to do in Belfast. - We were advised by a friend who had been to Belfast to do one of these Tours, so my friend booked this before we came and we were so glad we took her advise. The tour was one and half hours and our driver Mark was very knowledgeable and told us many things we had not known before we had come. It was that much of a pleasure we finished the tour and thought it had only lasted 45 minutes the time had gone so quickly thank you very much Paul.

Superb Experience - This is a fabulous tour for anyone spending time in Belfast. The driver Mark was immensely friendly, knowledgeable and very balanced in his descriptions of the troubles - which having done similar tours before is quite a thing. I don’t believe you will find a more knowledgeable driver than Mark who was very accommodating. A top trip and by far the best of the black taxi your operators we have experienced in Belfast. This is a must do trip and book through this company. I cannot recommend this any higher. Thank you Mark.

Don't go to Belfast and not do this. - The best thing I have done in years. Do not - not - do this. You'd be disappointed if you didn't take the tour. Tucker was impartial, knowledgeable, funny and entertaining.

Best way to learn abou the IRA Conflict ever. Highly recommend - Our tour guide Mark was exceptional. His depth of knowledge on the IRA conflict was more than we expected. He delivered an unbiased overview of the past and present state of IRA conflict and his knowledge of the history of it all was really impressive. He took us to all the major sites where historical activity occurred and would stop and allow us to get out and take pictures, walk into a church, etc. He was not rushed and really took his time explaining things to us. He absolutely made this tour. We would do this tour again and we highly recommend this to anyone who wants a better understanding of the IRA Conflict in the early 1900s, The Troubles of the 70s and the present status.

Must do experience in Belfast - We were recommended to go on this tour by friends from Belfast and it was definately one of the highlights of the trip. I had grown up in the 70s and 80s in England with an Irish mother, watching the news from Belfast almost daily. So being able to visit both the Republican and Unionist areas was very special. Our driver and guide ‘Big Ian’ was very knowlegable and gave a balanced view of the Troubles, even though he came from one of the two communities. We took a 90 minute tour in July which covered the Falls Road, Shankill Road and Peace Walls, iconic murals. ‘Big Ian’ was very informative about the murals and allowed plenty of time to take photos. He also answered all our questions and was friendly and engaging. I would recommend this tour to anyone interested in this dark period of British and Irish history!

One of the best tours I’ve ever done. - This is one of my favorite guided tours I’ve ever done. Big Mark was great. It was amazing to hear the stories of the area through the eyes of someone who lived in them. He kept the analysis very neutral, and his historical knowledge was fantastic. Very moving and very interesting. It had me wanting to learn more and more about the area and its history. Since doing this tour 2 weeks ago, I’ve not stopped thinking about it since, and I’ve been looking up books and articles online to learn more about the history. I highly recommend this to anyone even remotely interested in the Troubles or the history of Ireland. It’s impossible to do this tour and not be moved by it!
