A must for any traveler to Ireland - Highly recommend! Barry, our driver/guide was awesome, a walking passionate encyclopedia of Irish history. We got a full 2 hours worth of college lecture. As an American, I only knew a little about the Troubles and was way short on the history, background and gritty details. (Americans don't know much about Cromwell - I do now!). The whole thing is complex and confusing. Seeing the murals, gates and walls is an eyeopener. Jim and Diana - from Iowa, USA

A must do trip to gain an insight into a disturbing part of our history. - The tour was fantastic. Knowledgeable and non biased and gave the full background on the various places we visited. A harrowing and at times disturbing experience that I couldn't believe happened on our doorstep. Paula was a fantastic guide and I would highly recommend.

A Sobering, Beautiful and Heartwrenching Travel through Irish Hsitory - One of the best tours I've ever been on. Bryan had encyclopedic knowledge of Irish History going back millennia and he brought the entire story to life in a such a sobering and beautiful manner. This is worth every penny.

Balanced perspective of the Troubles - Our tour with Paula was extremely well balanced for a full perspective on understanding the Troubles. Additionally, her sharing the detailed history of Ireland provided necessary details to appreciate the significance of the time. We highly recommend the tour for immersing oneself in seeing first hand through the eyes of those who experienced this during their lifetime. It is a very emotional tour and well worthwhile. A highlight was signing the Peace Wall, giving hope for the future.

Trouble no more - Excellent tour! Barry was a great guide who had a wealth of historical information to share with us. He suggested that we move our tour time earlier as it would be dark and we wouldn't be able to see the murals as well. We weren't sure when we would get to the hotel with our flight and he offered to pick us up at the airport!

Best Belfast History Tour on Wheels! - Barry is top shelf! From the van to the insights. Everything was thought provoking. Barry's lived experience helped give perspective on hundreds of years of history of Belfast and Northen Ireland. The ride was more than comfortable. The tour was more than worth it! Barry even sent us a film list and resources to check out afterwards. Highly recommend this tour!
