Best way to get to know Belfast… - Paul was an amazing and passionate guide. In less than two hours, I was immersed in the history of the Troubles. I strongly recommend starting a Belfast visit with one of these experiences, so you can grapple with the continuing, unresolved generational trauma that is baked into what has become a very entertaining city.
