About this activity

Our private Belfast Political, Mural and Peace Wall Tour is a fully guided four-hour introduction to the city, with pickup from your hotel or the cruise terminal. Travelling privately with an experienced local guide, you set the pace and the focus — ideal for couples, families and small groups.

Belfast's recent history is best understood on the ground. Your guide leads you through the Falls Road and the Shankill, where the political murals and the Peace Walls — first raised in 1969 — chart the city's path through the Troubles and the decades of reconciliation that followed.

You will also see the landmarks that define modern Belfast — the Titanic Quarter, birthplace of the RMS Titanic, grand Belfast City Hall and the imposing Crumlin Road Gaol — a complete picture of the city, not a single neighbourhood or a fixed bus route. Every itinerary is tailored to your interests, with a luxury vehicle and the undivided attention of your own guide.
