Must do in Belfast - Informative and highly recommended, if you want to understand the contemporary history and context of Belfast. Brendon did a great job setting up the tour, explaining what we’d be looking at, and taking us through a complicated and often touchy topic. You will learn something, I am sure of that.

Very informative - The tour was very informative, but I thought I'd be in a black taxi. Perhaps I misunderstood. My guide was quite passionate and had a lot of facts and dates, but felt like we were rushing through it to make all photo stops. But he was very open and encouraged questions. I enjoyed learning more about the Troubles and his things are today.
