"Connor was great to talk to and we learnt so much about Belfast from him. He gave us a really unique experience. Also gave great dinner options."

Conor was the perfect Guide for us
"Conor was great, knowledgeable, passionate and good fun, he provided great insights in Belfast, past and present. Comes highly recommended. Will contact him again if I return to Belfast. "
"Alwyn took us on an excellent walking tour around Belfast! Even though it was pouring rain for our entire time, he kept the tour moving and made the best efforts to try and shelter us as much as possible...he even took us into the cutest hot chocolate cafe that was the BEST hot chocolate we've ever tasted! He was extremely knowledgable, very friendly and easy to talk with. Belfast is a beautiful city (even in the rain ..LOL!) and Alwyn easily shared much of its givings in a very fun and interesting way...We loved our tour!!"
"Rodney was an absolute find. We got so lucky with him. Born and raised in the area. He was a font of knowledge, history and a dry wit. He was very friendly and willing to customize the information to the specific interests of our group. He was always encouraging us to ask questions and gain more knowledge. He also gave us references for a great place for lunch but cannot recommend this tour highly enough!
Booking a private tour is definitely more expensive. But when it's curated to your specific tastes, it is well worth it!"
"The tour with Rodney was a great introduction to Belfast. The richness of the historical landscape helped us to further understand the division and the transitional journey to find a means toward unification. We loved learning about the buildings, architecture and the creative artwork that intertwines the irony and truth of the work that was done. Rodney has a deep understanding of the history and personally enjoys all that Belfast has to offer. It was a great tour!"

"We had a great time with Alwyn. The has obviously a great knowledge about the history of Belfast in so many aspects. And he also has a solid knowledge of german football, if you want to test him on that. Thanks again and take care."

Fantastic Tour & Stories of the Troubles
"This beats driving around in a black taxi. A walk with Conor is like a walk through the personal stories and perspectives of what it was like to live through The Troubles era. "
"He’s Incredibly knowledgeable about the current and very complex politics of Belfast. It’s a complicated place and it’s easy to judge it quickly, but Connor helped us actually understand the people here and how they felt and why they felt that way. Basically, if you want to understand Belfast on a deep cultural, political and historical level, he’s your man. He goes out of his way to make the tour as comprehensive as possible, taking you to out of the way spots and even introducing you to some locals if you come across an interesting character. On top of all that, he’s a very entertaining story teller and, might I add, exceptionally well dressed."
"Such a good walking tour with Rodney in Belfast! He has shown us all the important sites, took us for a coffee, was so knowledgeable and funny. Don´t miss this opportunity!"
