The tour was really interesting and our guide Joe did a great Job of showing us the important sights of the troubles and explaining the history behind them. Joe didn't juts tell the facts but gave them a personal note with his stories. He was also very open to any of our questions. We highly recommend the tour!

Had a fantastic tour with a lovely man,sorry can't remember his name, was very informative, and although it was teeming with rain, he never flinched. Dropped us off at a local pub for a hearty dinner. Would definitely recommend this tour, as the guide knew things I didn't, and I was born in Belfast.
