Must do Tour - Before coming to Belfast my partner and I were unaware of the depth of the current and previous conflicts and political unrest in the UK and Belfast. Michael was the perfect host to explain the history of the troubles and resulting conflicts in Ireland, plus a few local tales too ;) we had a wonderful time and wish we could’ve spent even more time with him 🫶

Excellent tour - would 100% recommend - Fantastic tour - very poignant and impactful. We had Tony as a tour guide and he did an excellent job of talking us through the Troubles. I've since watched BBC's Once Upon a Time in Northern Ireland and it's just basically confirmed everything that Tony told us. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic Tour - We had a such a fantastic time on the political mural tour with Jackie. It was so in depth and told with real emotion. I think we went over our time but he didn’t mind and was delighted to answer all our questions. Can’t recommend this tour enough, it’s a bonus if you get Jackie too.

Political Mural Taxi Tour - My boyfriend and I went on a political mural taxi tour with Jimmy. Jimmy was a true gent from start to finish with a world of knowledge and his own personal experience of the eye-opening history the beautiful city of Belfast holds. After our tour, we had a much deeper understanding of not only Northern Irish history but history of the whole island of Ireland. We would highly recommend to people of all ages, it’s a must when visiting Belfast. Wishing jimmy all the best 👍🏻

Exceptional history tour with Michael - Wow! Michael was an exceptional guide and he took us on a journey with his emense knowledge, and gave us a few laughs along the way! Michael painted a realistic picture for us of The Troubles and we are so happy we had the opportunity to do this tour with him. He was very accommodating as well. We have learnt a lot about The Troubles from someone who lived through them. Would highly recommend 👌 Thank you
