An incredibly moving tour with knowledgeable yet respectful guides who can acknowledge each other and the devastation that both sides have caused. Meeting Jack who was once in the I.R.A and hearing his reasonings behind joining the cause and meeting the other tour guide (I've forgotten his name) for being on the opposing side for understandable reasons. A very eye opening tour and experience. Both guides were passionate and we found this tour incredibly moving. Would really recommend to everyone. Was lovely to see a hand shake between both guides also.

5 out of 5 stars

Good value for money and friendly staff, very informative information as you go around seeing the different sights. When getting off at the titanic museum the stop to get back on is over the road with a hop on bus sign this part could of been a little clearer but overall amazing

5 out of 5 stars

The whole truth told from two opposing sides - harrowing but completely essential in today’s world. Helps us all see what reconciliation can look like and the ongoing work needed to maintain and improve the lives of everyone.
