“Brilliant tour with Corey this morning! He gave a fantastic overview of Belfast from the perspective of a down-to-earth young local. Packed with insight and delivered with real character and heart. It was wonderful to hear such a complex history told with honesty, balance, and hope for Ireland’s bright future. Also his tech is excellent with the aid of audio headset - you can walk along and listen at the same time - works really well in some noisy areas!!! Would highly recommend as a start to your Belfast visit!”
