    The peace walls were designed to separate the Catholic (Republicans) and Protestant (Loyalist) populations. The first ‘peace lines’ were erected, following the outbreak of War also known as the 1969 “The Troubles”. They were built as temporary structures, meant to last only six months. Due to their effective nature they were built higher, longer and made permanent. Today, the walls are adorned with art and messages of hope from tourists.

Trip around Belfast on St. Patrick’s Day

Published on Mar, 2025

We had a very interesting trip on St.Patrick’s Day to the former “Troubled” areas of the Falls Road & Shankill Road, our guide Ricky was very informative & he has 1st hand experience of these “Troubles”, we should all get to know Belfast better than London/Paris/Berlin/Barcelona/New York etc

A must do, highlight of our trip

Published on Mar, 2025

This was the highlight of our trip cannot praise it highly enough. Very knowledgeable driver/ guide who took us up close to all the various attractions. A must for any visitors going to Belfast

Great way to learn local history

Published on Mar, 2025

We really enjoyed our tour with David. We learned a lot about the Troubles through his personal experience and got a good feel for the city in a short amount of time. Really recommend starting off your trip to Belfast with this tour to get grounded in local history.

Fantastic experience from start to finish, Ricky was so knowledgeable

Published on Feb, 2025
