What to expect
Expect a candid, unglossy account of Belfast's recent past. Your driver will point out murals memorialising figures and events significant to the Republican and Unionist communities, explain the geography of division, and discuss the progress and ongoing tensions. The tour doesn't shy from difficult subjects—this is a working city where these walls still stand. You'll move between neighbourhoods by car, stopping to walk short sections and absorb the visual storytelling on walls. The commentary is personal rather than theatrical.
