Hugh gave us such a wonderful tour , he is so knowledgable on the area and both sides of the conflict in Northern Ireland, while remaining humerous and chatty. We also got the opportunity to sign the wall, markers provided by him. He also gave recommendations for fun places to go in Belfast. The tour was exactly and hour and a half which was perfect for us on a time crunch. He answered all of our questions in great detail. An over all brilliant experience that we would recommend to anyone visiting Belfast who wants to learn about the history

Excellent tour, Hugh was a font of knowledge. A very enjoyable, memorable & humorous couple of hours. Will definitely take this tour again when I return. Would probably be a main reason for returning!!

Wonderful experience for our friends’ first visit to Belfast Hugh was a very welcoming host and gave a very balanced insight into the issues behind the murals and recent troubles in Belfast
