A Must Do Experience - I would highly recommend anyone to take this tour if you are interested in history and understanding the political climate and conflict of "The Troubles." Brendan was our guide and he did an incredible job of explaining the perspective from both sides. Brendan happily answered our questions and showed us the murals and areas we would have never found ourselves. This is a must do experience!
