    Really insightful tour and a thoroughly fun yet thought-provoking experience. As people with limited knowledge of growing up during the troubles, and a potentially biased view based on news footage, it’s amazing to come away understanding more of the conflict on both sides of the wall and it has left us wanting to learn more. Also, if you get Brian as your guide, you’re in for a real treat and you won’t be disappointed

    The tour was absolutely particularly eye opening and I would highly recommend to anybody who wants to learn more about the troubles. Brian gave a very fair and balanced view of the murals, what they mean, and how Belfast ended up living with division. Brian being somebody who lived in the city before the walls went up you could trust he had legitimate knowledge and passion for the area. He also had a brilliant knack of timing a joke to lighten the mood!

    Very Informative and comprehensive tour of the Murals of Belfast. Our Guide was very thourough with explanations of the Murals and events that accompanied them. We signed the Peace Wall to wish the people of Belfast a more peaceful future. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Valeria and Belinda - May 2020
