Intimate, Up-Close Experience

Cynthia_M, Oct 2025
Very informative tour with local guide who lived through the Troubles. Walked Falls Road and surrounding areas and learned about the history of the troubles, key players and the nationalist point of view. Highly recommend this walking tour for an intimate up-close experience. Ends with a visit to the Republic Museum which is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of the Nationalist movement in Northern Ireland.
