History of "Belfast"

Tour guide "James Ellson" was extremely knowledgeable, entertaining, and amusing. My tour was Sunday May 29th, 2022, the tour was a little more than 2 hours well worth the time and reasonable price. "James" made the tour interesting, pointing out specific buildings that were bombed, the groups who were responsible for the violence, etc. His anecdotes were fascinating, humorous, and informative. I highly recommended this tour for anyone who is interested in the history of "Belfast".
Great history lesson

Excellent tour to learn Belfast history of the "troubles"

We booked four walking tours of different cities on our trip and this was by far the most enjoyable! The guide was excellent, with many personal stories to add to the history. The route was well planned to add to the narratives. Also, the use of personal headsets made the listening excellent, with no problem for my middle aged ears to understand the commentary over the city noise. I would take this again!
Place to be if you want to learn about Belfast's history

This walking tour was great - our guide Paul really made an effort and clearly enjoyed telling the group about Belfast's troubled history. It's great that you get a "hearing aid" - so you can always hear the guide even when some traffic passes by or some wanna be Ed Sheerans fill the place with music ;-). Felt that I learnt a lot and could really envision the Troubles at the original spots which gave me goosebumps sometimes. My recommendation: Go there - it's worth the bugs.
Excellent intro to the troubles

Amazing DC Tours guide….

Brilliant tour from Paul. The history of Belfast is very nuanced and complicated and DC Tours has crafted a fantastic tour. Paul calls on a lifetime of personal and professional involvement to illustrate the issues and important turning points during “the troubles”.
This was one of the best walking tours I’ve ever taken.
Belfast is an amazing city!
Thank you Paul
Cheers
Great Tour!

I travelled with friends and we decided that a history tour through the city of Belfast would be interesting. Having little to no knowledge of Belfast's history, I am very glad we joined this tour as it was far beyond our expectations. Our tour guy, who's name I unfortunately don't remember 😅, gave us a deep look into Belfast's history and triggered our thirst to get to know more about it. We went around the city center to places that looked like nothing has happened there, yet a very bloody event might have taken place just 30 years ago. It is mind blowing the fact that Belfast residents who are now 30 years old lived through those events and have relatives lost. I absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Belfast.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
