He was not slanted in his views and truly honored both sides of the story. You can’t go wrong with this tour and I hope you’re lucky enough to have Gary as a guide.”

While we would highly recommend this tour to our adult friends, the topic and some of the displays are too graphic for children. I would consider this a must do when visiting Belfast.”
