Travellers will get to experience a tour of Belfast's troubled streets, which in some cases still carry the scars of a sectariàn conflict which plagued Belfast and Northern Ireland for decades. This will give travellers a visual and oral account of the dark days of Northern Ireland's past. Travellers will be driven around the two most affected districts of Belfast, the Shankill and Falls districts. Murals adorn the gable walls, depicting batlle scenes from hundreds of years ago to more recent times. Murals of terrorist organisations which were involved in the conflict are displayed on the many walls, but their are also numerous murals depicting the innocent victims who were killed or injured. Your guide and driver is a local Belfast man, born and bred, lived briefly in South Africa, also lived and worked in London and Glasgow. Eddie has a background which some travellers may find interesting given his previous life and his role. He is passionate, open, frank and honest.

    Great tour

    Eddie picked us up at 12pm and dropped us back at 6pm. His knowledge and passion for Belfast was evident and he gave us a valuable insight on life prior to, and after the good Friday agreement. We now have a more rounded view of life in Belfast and will look him up next time we're in town. Thanks Eddie for your time and we look forward to our next tour with you.

    Highly informative , indepth tour

    Eddie's tour was excellent, someone who talks from experience, has a huge wealth of information and we had some great discussions. Very enlightening and we were inspired to go and learn more about the history of Belfast and NI. Highly recommend, take a longer tour and get an indepth insight into NI as it is today against its political backdrop.

    Professional and informative.

    My father and I had the pleasure of taking a tour of Belfast, and it was an incredible experience. Eddie, our guide, was exceptional, with an experienced depth of knowledge about the city and its history. He conveyed this information with passion and clarity, making the city's past come alive. My understanding of the troubles has been greatly and forever changed.

    Take Eddie’s Political Tour!

    Eddie’s Political tour is a must do in Belfast. He is full of knowledge and information- he didn’t sugar coat, it was confronting and gritty - we learnt so much from him.

    Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Belfast.

    How much does Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $218 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Belfast usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Belfast is not rushed.

    Is Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 52 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Belfast, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Belfast can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Belfast and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Belfast within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Belfast?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Belfast experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include A History of Terror - Belfast City Centre Walking Tour, Belfast Black Taxi Tour: Private Journey Through History, Belfast's Political Mural Taxi Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Belfast?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Belfast?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour?

    +

    Included: In-vehicle air conditioning. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    What languages is Belfast Political Conflict and Murals Tour offered in?

    +
