Join me on this small group tour as the perfect introduction to the city.
I prioritise an exclusive experience with more interaction between group and guide and where you are encouraged to ask questions.
We do not ignore the "Troubles"; we explore the reasons for the conflct but it is not central to our tour - there is so much more to this beautiful city and my tour's main focus is on the history, culture, architecture, industrial heritage and politics of my home town and country.
