Belfast Murals Tour

The Belfast Murals Tour gives an insight into our history. Ireland had been in a perpetual state of conflict for thousands of years, both internally and against forces from outside our island. Most recently ‘The Troubles’ took place from the late 60’s and was ended with the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998.

Conflict, though to a much lesser extent still exists in Northern Ireland, and on your Belfast Murals Tour we’ll take you around our city and tell you our story.

We explain the significance of Prince William of Orange, who became King William III and fought against King James II in the Battle of the Boyne.

We’ll take you around infamous areas of Belfast where conflict took place, and you’ll gain an understanding of The Troubles narrative, from both the Catholic / Republican and Protestant / Loyalist points of view.

We take you to locations of cultural and historic significance, including Bombay Street, where many say a catalyst was struck for our 30 year conflict.

Learn about Loyalist and Republican paramilitary organisations and how they defended their communities, then you’ll learn the story of the many peace walls, meaning that you’ll come away from your tour with a better understanding of Irish and British history.

Your tour will stop at each location and allow lots of time to take photos so you can take home a piece of Belfast.

Your Belfast Murals Tour will end at the International Wall which is one of our most popular tourist locations, before you are returned to your pick-up point.
