Troubles black cab tour - What a very special morning! Brendan our tour guide shared the history of the troubles as he took us to both sides of the wall. You can see all movies and read the stories but the tour gave us a much better understanding of the troubles and the pathway to peace. Highly recommend.

Amazing tour - We were lucky enough to have a tour with Gerard who was a brilliant guide, offering balanced and personal reflections of the war. Really informative, and emotional Gerard is an educator, doing really important work. We did the hop on hop off bus the day before which only touched the surface so we were keen to learn more, and certainly did. Booked less than an hour before, picked up from our hotel, Gerard was extremely generous with his time and energy and we are very grateful for that. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing tour with a fab guide! - Unforgettable tour! So informative! Gerard was a fantastic knowledgeable tour guide, who provided a balance of laughs and emotive first hand experience of growing up during the troubles. He was not bound by the clock and even offered to drop us at the airport after the tour to make sure we caught our flight in time! Fully recommend if you’re visiting Belfast!
