Walk Belfast’s Troubles-era landmarks with a local guide and headsets, from City Hall to the Beacon of Hope. Flat route, 2.5 hours.
“More standing and listening than actual walking! If it isn’t raining you can often find dry seats. You do visit key locations for explosions and loss of life. It can be very sad.”

“Very interesting, both sides tell their stories, republican and loyalist, passionate people, highly recommended.”
Best of Belfast walking tour covers City Hall, Titanic memorials, murals, and public art with a licensed guide and included headsets.

Belfast City Hall to the Cathedral Quarter on a 3-hour small-group walk with Marti, mixing history, street art, and Titanic echoes in one circuit.

Walk Belfast’s Troubles murals, community street art, and the Peace Wall with a small-group local guide for about 3 hours.
